Waiting for some more stuff to come, but i will probably actually drive it some as well, still only 50 miles total lol.

my personal/mixed one is @paik_man

Anyways this car is awesome. Never thought i'd like a color more than my Nardo till I saw this in the showroom. They did a good job adding oem touches to make it special.
The gray car - wowzer !!! So perfect

Ok, the yellow headlights are awesome ! Is that a film over the regular headlight ? : or did you buy special housing ?

Would that look good on my '12 Mineral White M3 ?

Yeah It's usually something you'd install on your Honda.

It's basically like throwing Teriyaki Sauce all over your Bratwurst & Sauerkraut.

Looks like maybe the title was changed to say JDM by an administrator after the fact?
Yeah I'm
Not sure about the title on the front page, obviously I've never advertised it as actually JDM. I've always tuned whatever model of vehicle as inspired by dual street/track jdm cars I grew up with though, for sure

Love them. The best bang for the buck for people actually tracking the vehicle. RE71R and A052 are faster but RE71R will fall off on a car this heavy after 2laps and no a052 in 19"s yet for us. RS4 i can go full 20 min sessions and the last 5-6 min are def not as fast as the middle but they have a predictable breakaway, they dont became a grease fest like hot RE71R.

I bought the Mperf carbon insert piece, and took off the silver trim and had it painted locally.

Nice... Like painted at a body shop? Though I think it's a lot more effort that I'm willing to put into it.

While most would frown on a jdm themed european sports sedan, i for one love the jdm style. Matter of individual preference and taste. My e90 has advan rims and arqray exhuast mufflers.

The quality and attention to detail of quality japanese brands is second to none. Most of my peers were into bbs rims and remus exhuast mufflers and frowned upon my car's jdm theme, i just ignored the negative comments.

Your car is beautiful to me and key thing you love the design theme and is happy driving it the way it is modified. That is the only thing that matters.

That's ironic of your friends. If they bought the "real" BBS wheels that are forged, those actually have been all made in Japan for over a decade haha.
And yep, I don't mind people not liking it or whatever..im not doing a crusade with low quality parts or anything saying respect all builds haha.
Thanks!

Love it! I went from a 2016 6MT M3 to a 2018 CS.

The jump from 6MT to DCT takes some adjusting to, but the way the CS delivers power (especially with MP Cup2's) is simply incredible.

I racked up 11,500km on mine already. It's also my daily driver!

took the Advans off.. not sure where I'm planning to go yet with the car again so threw the OEM wheels back on. But not before I made sure to get some spacers from Ryan@IND , 12/10 from Future Classic and I really like the look!

Great man! Im gonna be honest with you, the wheels looked way off on the car. Like it doesnt fit the style or personality of the car. It didn't look bad, but it looked off if you get what I'm saying.
