135i to 1M body conversion

Forced_downunder · 05-13-2015, 05:47 PM

I am considering taking the leap and converting to full 1M body conversion and some additional CF parts to put the girl on diet.

I am looking for recommendations on body shops that may have performed 1M conversions before and have done good work for you in the past.

These guys have a 1M kit with CF wheel arches and OEM 1M bumpers.

And I am looking at Revozport for the rest of the carbon parts.

Any thoughts on the install, kit or local options for conversion.

Not sure how much experience they have with BMW's, but Peter from Bodyform Motorsports is one of the best in the JDM scene. Check out their FB page

Pretty sure there was a thread on here that was very uncomplimentary to these kits.

Curare86 Had one done in Perth.
I believe even using OEM parts there are things to watch out for, particularly the rear arches.
I can understand why people do this but I do the sums very carefully and see how much more it would be to buy an actual 1M.

Thanks guys.

Yeh the numbers get a bit scary and it's not financially a wise move but it looks so damn good.
