Wow. Richy Rich indeed.

Can't wait to see the black headlights and hear about the tire solution

Nice! Subbed. This build is going to be sick

damnitBobby · 11-27-2014, 09:36 PM

beast numbers for such few mods

305's on stock wheels will be pretty pointless.. get some wider wheels to lay down the rubber properly

I like the look and weight of the factory 19's, main reason why I'm not really interested in dropping 10k on wheels right now.

Slight bump in time frame, she goes in for the matte clear bra tonight since the install schedule for meth kit conflicted with the clear bra install availability.

Yeah, right. You posted this thread because you like the "games." Nice car, nice build though, Richy Rich... lol.

The struggle with my black reflectors while waiting for my frozen grey from IND in this thread was real, I just gave up on the forum after that -- figured F80 section may be better this time around, lol.

Thats a great looking car too! Didn't read the whole thread, but just seems you're ready for a fight. Seriously, looking forward to the seeing pics of the completed car.

KevinM · 11-29-2014, 11:54 AM

Wow, you have been/will be busy!

When you say matte clear bra, I assume you are actually talking about a full wrap?

Given your experience with the car so far, are you concerned about traction issues with your power increase, even with 305s in the back?

Correct -- I was going to clear bra the whole car either way, so I figured I'd try out the matte after applying a sizable piece to the car for reference.

My e92 was frozen grey, so I kind of miss the matte finish to the car. That and I still own "FRZN M3" tags.

As for the tires, I think the only 305's that would fit properly are the MT's and I want a stiffer sidewall for daily use, so I'm probably going to do 295's.

I currently spin doing 80 in 4th on highway if I try to pass someone, so with 295's and a stickier compound, I feel like it's going to be a vast improvement.

ZimaMotorsports · 11-29-2014, 12:30 PM

Great looking car with a great choice of mods!

Richy Rich · 11-29-2014, 04:55 PM
