Default Pics fresh out the bodyshop! M3 bumper/Velocity Splitters

Just picked my Ti up yesterday! The old E46 style bumper is gone and in its place is the OE E36 M3 bumper with the OE M3 lip spoiler & Velocity Splitters all painted. Fog light delete covers should be coming in the next few days. I also had the entire driver side, rear hatch & passenger side fender repainted.

The Velocity Splitters dropped me down to 3-inches of ground clearance who wants to be the first to start making bets on how fast I rip one off on a speed bump?






Don't anyone dare make fun of my brakes! Solid rotors FTW!

Which headlights are those?

Any particular reason you're keeping the fog light covers? I have them on my car but they are ugly gray. I've been trying to figure out something to do with them and I'm too cheap/poor to buy foglights. Just paint them body color maybe?

Does anyone sell those splitters in CF? It'd match my lip...

Looks really good, I love it. Is that the Reiger roof spoiler? Looks good. Any more pics of it from the rear?

Yo dude, solid brakes signify a true tuner. Cross-drilled and slotted is just for the look.

Looks the tits.

My headlights are DJauto ellipsoids with DDE Lightning Plus angel eyes/ X-tec 6000K HIDS.

As for the no fog light thing, I want to keep the all black look on the front end. I'm looking for some black fog delete covers, but it seems the closest I can find is dark gray...If I can’t find any black ones I'll have to paint them.

I've never seen these splitters in CF. Maybe someone else can help you on that…

Thanks!! The roof spoiler was a factory installed M-tech option from Bmw. I'll see if I can dig some recent ass-shots up.

Looks good I like it much better than the other bumper. Any plans on getting the 'twisty' side skirts?

awww ... that sux. i'm going to try it soon (i got the center strip that just continues the trim as it is on the rest of the bumper - i'll claim no place to put the plate ).

Painted fog light covers ftw. Although I kinda want fogs, I like the clean look the front end has with them. Oh, and the car looks great, man.

BTW, how do you like the DJAuto lights? I've been looking into possibly getting a set.
