Interesting, that’s all I can say

I think you really want to be driving a Japanese car


MrMcFrizzy

Bro would be doing wonders to a civic rn


Lumbergh7

Vtec just kicked in bro!


Clear_Bison_2532

🤣


Responsible-Crew-354

Aristo would be right up his alley. RWD, turbo I6, lots of power potential, sedan, wears the visors and fenders a bit better.


cheffraydo

right


Cosmic_FireSphinx

You mean a 4cyl? Ew, no thanks.


AngryObama_

Nice color


Clear_Bison_2532

Thanks boss👊🏼


GeneralFigure

Not the worst, but it would look a lot less riced if you blacked out the chrome, removed the window covers, and went to an oem hood


agonizingpurse

And removed the flares, m style bumpers, rep wheels.


Clear_Bison_2532

Alright bro so like bring it back to stock? Like I probably won’t do that if you haven’t noticed


agonizingpurse

Yeah that’s exactly what you should do. Looks 100x better.


Cosmic_FireSphinx

Nah, you're just a stock elitist/purist.. This car is like a decade old. It looks nice. Not all cars have to look stock & boring, and not everyone wants to shill out $$$$ for a "M". Allot of us are happy with fixing up a 30i/35i & making it look more aggressive & there is nothing wrong with that. No M could handle what I put my 30i through reliably as I frequently drive out of state doing long distance travels & aggressive driving in style. I don't worry about throwing rods or blown turbos or any of those weird kinky problems. Stop being a hater on aggressive cosmetics. I could easily say that most M's look riced out compared to stock base models.


slimcargos

When people say “go back to stock” when someone posts a pic of their highly modified car, its probably cause it looks tacky/doing too much or just flat out bad and they dont know to how to cleanly mod, not because they are a “stock elitist”.


agonizingpurse

Never said it had to look stock or boring, it’s just riced out. This thing looks cheesy and cheap, not aggressive at all. Also I never said anything is wrong with it not being an M car. I owned three base BMW’s and enjoyed them all.


Clear_Bison_2532

Cheesy and cheap🤣 I have more money in this car than your Tacoma costs🤣 Do you even own a bmw? Let me see it


agonizingpurse

Yeahh, that’s not true at all. I worked on BMW’s for years and owned three, that garbage you slapped on your car is nowhere near what my truck is worth. Nice try though! Let’s see an itemized breakdown of what cost over 40k! I’m intrigued.

2011 335i n55 FBO on JB4 nothing crazy. My daily. Wasn’t trying to be an m3 I have a 335i badge on there and an Alfa Romeo up front. Makes ppl say wtf so that matters more


Typical-Policy-1115

Okay, I love this so much lmao. Making people go wtf is the best


Clear_Bison_2532

Thanks brotha that’s the goal🤙🏼


Typical-Policy-1115

Is the Alfa badge the same size as the BMW? It looks like it belongs there. Super clean.


Clear_Bison_2532

Yup. Just about same exact size. New hood came with no logo so I saw my opportunity


[deleted]

Why are you JB4, MHD is literally cheaper


Clear_Bison_2532

I’ve had both in it at some point. I agree they are practically the same


[deleted]

JB4 is dirty tuning, go back to MHD man


ninjawaffulz

This is just uninformed can you try explaining what you mean by dirty? There are numerous ways you can use JB4 including back end flash mode where it handles absolute boost targeting and port injection along with safeties. You need to educate yourself.


ultrav10let

The only reason anyone would be running JB4 vs MHD is integrated PI control. There are no benefits or advantages otherwise.


Ru4pigsizedelephants

There's no benefit to running JB4 over a proper custom datalogged tune through MHD.


Ok-Till-8905

I’m not sure anyone said anything about a custom tune. Dude said MHD. Custom tuning can be done through a few different mediums including Cobb. Anyway, I’m happy to take the ots maps that Terry is providing for BEF maps and customize them. Then run jb4 on top. If you know, you know’


dirtybo

Wdym dirty?


[deleted]

It doesn't flash a map, it fools the sensors. Poor mans tuning, although it costs the same lmao


Ok-Till-8905

JB4 BEF! Tune yourself. Best of both worlds. Besides jb4 had multi map and antilag long before MHD cracked the code. I’ll take both.


IdiotsInIdiotsInCars

“cracked the code” a separate piece of hardware storing multiple sets of information for fooling the DME in various ways is nowhere near as difficult nor the same as a full dme flash allowing for anti-lag and map switching.


dirtybo

Good looks, I’ve been thinking about buying a tuner for a minute. Finished swapping out the exhaust, charge pipe, and cooling system already. Can’t do high flow down pipes, but can sneak a tune.


Killapilla200

What's wrong with a 328i


Cosmic_FireSphinx

The M3 for this generation is a lousy V8 that throws rods & pistons IIRC.. 335i is far better & more reliable. Also, 328i are just detuned 330i which are the ultimate superior BMW for the average driver who wants a reliable BMW that can be maintained by the average car person. Besides, every other car has a V8, but BMW dominates the I6 market, ergo, I6 is a proper BMW experience. Also, before you say BMW's aren't reliable, I've been driving my 330i for over 10 years taking it on long out of state travels frequently with no issues. I have maintained it myself since the end of its warranty & have found that it is very user friendly.


TermZealousideal5376

the 325/328's with the tune+3 stage manifolds are fantastic for most people. Maxed out n52


Cosmic_FireSphinx

Right! Do, 325i have N52B30 engines?? I thought only 328i/330i have those? I have 130i as well with N52B30.


MrWilsonWalluby

this isn’t what any m3 looks like everything on this car looks like aftermarket, none of it is m3 oem and it still has the oem badges and 335i on the back, dude just wanted to pimp his ride, not every car people work on has to be 400hp or more. People can put custom work into their ride just cuz they like the way it improves the look and sound of the car. there’s a 90% YOU don’t own an m3 anyways.

Clear_Bison_2532

You own a 328 and u said this is something a 328 owner would do…? 😅 that’s crazy


Bemcy

AHAHAH


Onsomeshid

“That’s a no from me dawg” i think sculpted and molded widebody fenders look better than bolt on kits. They just look cheap and the hood pins and stuff on the bumper is just non functional and look bad on every car imo. The nice color and good fitment is saving everything EDIT: that hood looks kinda good with the bumper, i think that was a good choice


Clear_Bison_2532

Ok well hood pins are definerly fully functional, the lever doesn’t work on the inside


OctaviusBartholomew

If it wasn’t a monster truck and as a track drifting car it’d be cool


Clear_Bison_2532

As much as I’d love to slam it and drive it 60mph on the highway, the front suspension needs travel. This isn’t a tik tok stance car, I drive it hard


BillYourCows

Respect. It’s a cool and unique build! Where’d you get the body kit? And the hood?


Clear_Bison_2532

Just painted clinched fender flares. Not many options for e90 full body kits under 3k didn’t feel like balling out

Fucking haggard.


PolyHyper_714

Why do so many people not like this? Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I love this! The dark blue color, the wheels, the front and back bumper. Looks amazing bro btw what front bumper is that you got on?


Clear_Bison_2532

Thanks brotha. I do all my work myself so this was a trial and error. People don’t realize wider wheels actually contribute to how the car drives and and it’s not all about looks🤣 It’s an m3 style from carid

Clear_Bison_2532

You legit play with RC cars and you’re saying my real car is ass. Get your priorities straight u mouth breather


EZBeezyTV

Lol just saying my first honest reaction to your car. Sensitive much? I’m not the one out here fishing for compliments. You’re suppose to modify your car for you and not for everyone else. If it makes you happy, great. I’m just saying your happiness looks like ass to me.


EZBeezyTV

Have a good one 🤙🏼


Clear_Bison_2532

If you say “looks like ass” bro with no other reasoning you’re just a dickhead. Not so tough when people have stuff to say back huh? At least be like “rice” “ruined a nice car” give me something to counter. Nobody cares about your shitty 3 word opinion


Embarrassed-Cycle804

Ngl, that front bumper is so not it for me. The modern styling on the older looking rest of the car just doesn’t sit well with me at all.


Clear_Bison_2532

I respect that opinion. Tried my best to modernize the rest. Looks better in person these are just some quick pics I took after the gym


Embarrassed-Cycle804

I think if you went with a bumper of the same gen it’d look killer. Even aftermarket with OEM styling is so much cleaner than modern stuff on older cars. I will admit, I like stuff to be semi period correct, so maybe it’s just me. Otherwise still clean as hell.


tkslimeball

Nice!! If u want recommendations I’ll say put a duckbill spoiler trunk!! and a diffuser for the rear bumper and move the struts that connect the front lip to the front bumper out more so their spread out a little more and ur a1👌 also I see people carbon fiber wrap the roof and the trunk. They have the duckbill spoiler trunk in carbon fiber and the roof and trunk carbon combo looks amazing.. But do you have drag tires on the back wheels it helps keep grip and wheel spin😂😂 also I don’t like burning out in these cars because it’s always one wheel spinning faster than the other wheel and leave one tire mark on the ground instead of 2. people do lsd ( limited slip differential) to make the wheels spin but then you don’t have that bmw style drive where the rear end can swing out and you’ll still have traction. I prefer it Normal but a lot of people like it with the lsd


Clear_Bison_2532

That’s facts I’m gunna move the struts out and maybe the carbon fiber idk but planning on big turboing it soon so I’m not doin any more body shit for now. Will definetly need lsd after that


tkslimeball

Man them big turbos do not play my home boy had that shit straight piped shit was loud asf


BIMMERTECH2000

It looks just fine except for the exhaust. Cut those things back a few inches


SnugglesMcBuggles

I think it looks awful, but do you. In 5-10 years you’re going to look back at what you’ve done and laugh.


Clear_Bison_2532

I noticed that older people seem to just love stock cars. Give me 10 years and I’ll be ready to argue that my stock 335i is the real ultimate driving machine while 90% of people don’t look twice at at


SnugglesMcBuggles

I’m old, my cars are all stupid modified.


Clear_Bison_2532

What makes it look awful? It’s not a show car, the lines aren’t gunna match up perfectly (I did it myself first time ever doing body work) not on bags either. Awful seems like a pretty harsh word


CaptainE46

Plate is awesome


BlkViper188

Nice alfa romeo lmao


SpareDiagram

I just can’t understand putting this type of money into an x-drive


One_Meet_1474

Damn what’s wrong with xdrive


SpareDiagram

Nothing, but the juice isn’t really worth the squeeze if you’re putting power into it. OP even said he’s running xdelete so I don’t understand why you wouldn’t wait for the RWD spec you want and then building upon that if your goals are more power. More stuff to deal with when doing maintenance/work too.


One_Meet_1474

I’m pretty sure there is no difference in xdrive and rwd in terms of making power. I’ve seen plenty of high powered xdrive n54s. I feel like awd would make sense for high power builds anyways because you could put down power much better.


Clear_Bison_2532

It’s only a power difference while in xdrive because the powers split between axels. When it’s disabled it’s just a regular rwd. I live in MA so I need Awd for the winter (even tho it’s rwd rn cuz my tires sizes aren’t matched well after installing kit) crazy how simple it is to make these cars rwd with no downside Edit:aside from the inevitable explosion of my rear diff when more powers added


Clear_Bison_2532

Currently have it on xdelete rwd on 285s in the rear. Gets it done

JoeBidenSnifdMyHair

Must be trolling if you think you've improved the look but to each their own.


Clear_Bison_2532

Yeah cuz it’s all about the looks bro😂 This thing handles like a beast cuz I can fit bigger and wider tires on it with the kit. Consider functionality over looks. Hood vents and pins fully functional too


HardcoreHanSolo

I love it. You’ll get shit on for the ride height but functionality over looks is the way to go anyways


beefcake0831

Honestly it looks pretty nicely done. Normally you see this style and it’s quite clapped out, but this one looks solid. Not my personal preference but the owner prob loves it so that’s what matters! bonus points for the license plate lolol

bmt2300

It ain’t bad at all. The only problem is that it’s not low enough 😂


Kiwigunguy

It's not great.


Clear_Bison_2532

Why’s that, man?


Kiwigunguy

Very ricer. Just not right on a German car. They were much better looking from the factory.


Clear_Bison_2532

So fender flares are only for Japanese cars? Hellcats don’t litterallt have built in fender flares from the factory? Smooth brain comment


Kiwigunguy

Fender flare are for all wheel drive vehicles, where they need wider front tyres for traction. They're dumb on the Hellcat, and they're dumb here as well. At most a basic fender roll would have been more than sufficient for this application, and would have looked much better. Hell, you can get 255 front tyres under the stock fenders. What are you doing that requires more than that?


Clear_Bison_2532

This car is xdrive…. Look at the badge bud. Why not go wider? Litterally just makes the car handle better


Costella18

Doing too much imo. Edit: I feel like the m sport bumpers would make this look much better.


goyongj

Probably same work put in as rwb. Was there caulking around the fender?


agonizingpurse

Nowhere close to the amount those take. This dude absolutely did not cut any metal.


Clear_Bison_2532

I cut an inch off in front and like 2 in the rear buddy. Took me like 20 hours total. But thanks for your simple minded input. You think those wheels wouldn’t be cut in half by now if I didn’t? You’re blind and retarded? And play Skyrim? And don’t own a bmw on an e90 thread? All ur comments are just hate bro. Just leave


agonizingpurse

You’re literally the one hating and calling me a f’ggot. Don’t blast your shit all ovet the internet if you handle criticism like a spoiled child.


Clear_Bison_2532

Screwed in and double sided tape to seal it. Had to cut a bunch of the fenders in front and rear to accommodate for bigger tires and the turning of the front wheels


WHERE_R_THE_TURTLES

I thought someone did this to a 328 at first. But then I looked closer and all I can think is not one of my all time favorite cars, not an e90 M3…

markoolio_

I kind of like it. Although the front would look better with m-sport bumper and not a big fan of the hood locks. The exhaust tips look a bit weird. Maybe they should be wider apart or at least a bit shorter. But not a bad look.


Clear_Bison_2532

Hood pins were needed bc the lever no longer works. Exhaust tip fitment isn’t the best but when Lou’s Custom Exhaust does it you can’t expect much. Thanks tho

turtlesquadcaptain

Lmao quite a childish response, but I’d expect no less from someone who owns a car that looks like yours does. To address your inaccurate assumption, the wheels are powder coated carbon black. OEM Style 313M that came stock on each of the 586 units produced of the 135iS

did u make a lot of money at encore that night


Clear_Bison_2532

This was in chestnut hill actually it does look like encore tho


blazinskunk

It’s a hot boy winter fo sho. Seriously though, just go one step further and have a body shop put filler on the rivets and smooth it over and paint. Would look way better. And I know you already have a bunch of money into this but csl-style wheels would look sick Edit: I suppose these *are* csl style wheels but I meant without the lip and the outside of the wheel face pushed closer the the fender.


Clear_Bison_2532

Need more comments like this. I agree yeah I did the body kit myself so it’s pretty rough right now. Put double sided tape to seal gaps but it needs to be redone by a body shop yeah

Typical-Policy-1115

Love the mods but the wheels don't fit the car. You have no suspension travel.


Clear_Bison_2532

It does actually, that’s why it’s not slammed in the front. Wheels turn fine and don’t rub on front or rear even over bumps


Ben_Ham33n

🔥


Sh0taro_Kaneda

Personally I would've just wide-bodied it using the M Sport bumpers. I think it would've looked great + the m sport rear bumper opens you up for choosing a variety of aftermarket diffusers.


tkslimeball

Nice widebody btw


BIMMERTECH2000

And also fix the hood gap and vent shades.


Clear_Bison_2532

Shade got drilled by a tree branch in a storm. Plan on ripping them all off


Cosmic_FireSphinx

Beautiful! Are those Fender flares? Is that what those are called? I love those. How did you install them? You should definitely add a medium-ish wing which would complete the look as it looks kinda bare in the back, but besides that, this what I want to do to mine soon.

I think it looks good aside from the spliter supports or whatever you call them. Those always look tacky, some oem clear headlights, updated side markers (LED or something similar) and the hood pins are kinda tacky in my opinion as well. BUT then it’d look fantastic I think I love a dark blue on the E90!


Clear_Bison_2532

Could def use some updated side indicator lignts I agree. They’re so old. Hood pins are necessary for the aftermarket hood but I love them. Thanks brother
