Phorbes - Fashion Gray M3 Build Journal

gixxer_kidd · 04-21-2019, 04:49 PM

Love everything about this build especially the Brembos and LMs. Hard to tell from the pic you posted of the suspension and was wondering if you have room to go lower. If so how much more? Thanks!

Yes, more low is in order. Got the new wheels put on and now I can make judgment on how much more low to go and followed by the alignment

Excellent, no complaints on fitment for any of my aftermarket parts. I'm so anal that if if something doesn't fit just right, I'll return it.

The colour!! WOW!

Love everything about your car, great job

Thank you! Have some HRE's on the way as well, I think she's going to look even better!

She's 98% of the way there...

Same here. I got their first production run of the revised diffuser and it fit awesome, but I had them send me what you have also and I could not get it to fit at all. The revised version is more pronounced.

Already switching wheels? lol Which HREs?

I have one last final mod to do and then she's done. Stay tuned.

DadVibes · 05-21-2019, 09:09 AM

Looks great! I may have missed it but your mod list doesn't seem to mention your coilover/spring setup.

Would you mind sharing that?

Wow. Looks awesome. What's the finish on the wheels? Brushed clear?

CS hood is the last mod?
