First post with pics of my beloved E92 (winter setup).
Added JB+ last week (

) and looking for opinions on what external mods to do next.

Tint? (35%)
Rims? (currently have 17" not much better than the winters above - love the 230's)
Lowering kit?.

check the tint thread, wheel subforum, and suspension subforum. We're not your brain cells, can't decide what you should do next.

That's like asking "anybody bought an E90/1/2/3 ?" on this forum. Search for "CDV"

jeveryday · 03-15-2009, 09:36 PM

i would say wheels... or a intake

freshwhite335 · 03-15-2009, 09:38 PM

matte black grille and trim
tint

HermesRider · 03-15-2009, 09:42 PM

Def tint... then maybe lowering springs.

LZM Ray · 03-15-2009, 09:50 PM

wow Red looks real nice i can only bet tints will improve the color.
but im more of a BLue person lol.

Old car lol also blue

windshear · 03-15-2009, 09:55 PM

Tint is so sopranos guido cheesy! To each their own. I would go with wheels.

sgmpw · 03-15-2009, 10:02 PM

Appreciate the input. Here are a couple of my favs...

e92man · 03-15-2009, 10:04 PM

get some tint, 230s, springs, and do the vacuum plug mod and you'll be set

Craig@SupremePower · 03-15-2009, 11:33 PM

What the hell? Randomly posting pics of your own car in someone else's thread? What a little attention whore.

Jonny550 · 03-15-2009, 11:43 PM

1 )take off the badges with dental floss or fishing wire
2 )matte black grill 30 bucks
3 ) exhaust mod (search it) free
4 )aero lip
5 )tint
6 ) some people like the classy look of the 189 rim try the aero lip first and see if you like the way the stock rims pronounce the lip

Canucklion, take a little more time and READ the post before offering your "less than" infinite wisdom.

OP is asking for opinions, not answers. Judging by the majority of the posts made by yourself that I happen across each day.......... someone must be pissing in your Cheerios on a regular basis.

OP: Tints would definitely help the red to pop a bit more!

to_riffic · 03-16-2009, 12:12 AM

get the mtech kit! hehe

MCMLXXXIX · 03-16-2009, 12:17 AM

Crimson Red is NICEE

Noc57 · 03-16-2009, 12:24 AM

Never was a fan of CR, always hated how they would show new the M3 with it.

But after this....

Pimpin Dude..... I'd start off with tints, black grilles, and either aero lip or M-tech.

Then chip it, get a new exhaust for performance and you're good.

Ohh and change those hideous wheels stat!....

Septro · 03-16-2009, 12:35 AM

Your next mod = how much $ you want to spend.

Simple equation really. I say go for the tint then wheels.

In hot-weather states tints are not only used for looks

OP: I would suggest doing tints, then depending on budget 1) aero lip 2) wheels 3) drop.

I live in a hot wx state. Think tinted windows look very cheesy. Most cars around here with tinted windows have big tails/exhaust and are driven by Eminem wannabes.

+1 as long as you don't get limo tint you won't have the "guido" effect or w/e, stay with 35%
