AW E92 XI Content: Last few pics before the car is parted and returned to stock

kamek · 12-13-2012, 02:37 PM

My goal throughout my short-lived modding phase was to create a simple, clean, and somewhat practical daily driver. Driving lowered on 19s in NYC just wasn't doing it for me anymore in terms of practicality, making me constantly worry about potholes, driveways (my own garage included), and bad roads, so back to stock I've decided to go. This is/was my second and final rendition of my modded e92.

Things to note:

This is an XI
The wheels ARE OEM 359Ms WITH spacers
I'm cranked far down on KW V1s
I don't rub
Returning to stock will be a painful experience

Mods include:

OEM 359M wheels
OEM aero lip
OEM M3 spoiler lip
KW V1 coilovers
BMW Performance exhaust with secondary cat delete
LUX V3 angel eyes
Nokya yellow fogs
Coded amber delete
5mm spacers all around
Black grilles
Color matched side reflectors
Vinyled window trim

Thanks for looking!

I've always liked your ride being a 328 owner myself but lots of luck with your next ride

DoctorS · 12-13-2012, 02:57 PM

Your car almost looks identical to mine except my stance isn't as great as yours! On a side note, what angel eyes are those?

KwlAznKid · 12-13-2012, 03:26 PM

JoeyBananaz18 · 12-13-2012, 04:13 PM

Clean ride. I'd be interested in the spacers when they're off. I'm local, so let me know.

Thank you, thank you. Definitely going to be difficult to part with.

Yes, definitely extended lugs with 5mm spacers. Stock lugs are 25mm and aren't long enough to safely run them with spacers.

Thanks man. Took some tweaking, but finally got a nice mix between aggressive and conservative.

They don't exist, and if they exist in replica form, well, I wouldn't buy replicas.

Thanks! Everything has already been sold with the exception of my RAD 36mm extended wheel locks.

j2m · 12-14-2012, 11:44 AM

Looks perect

Why are you returning to stock? That's like a chick who gets a perfect boob job and then goes back to stock

Yeah, you guys have it good down there. And no need for xi either.

Chill with the PMs, guys. The car has already been parted and all parts sold. Only PM me regarding buying of parts if you want RAD 36mm extended wheel locks!
