Sgm 135i

iconone · 06-17-2015, 08:11 AM

I finally found the 1 for me. I have had it for about 3 months and I'm loving it. I have been doing lots of reading and learning up on the new platform. It has 75k and the PO had most of the big items replaced under warranty. Car came with dp's, fmic and a Cobb ap. Here it is when I picked her up.

Picked up some gp Thunder bulbs for the angel eyes. Not what I wanted but will work for now.

Also picked up a set of 12mm wheel spacers for the front.

iconone · 06-17-2015, 08:24 AM

Was getting some rattling for my license plate so I put some rattletrap on it and it fixed the rattling.

Also put a hardwire kit for my 8500 x50.

9500ix coming soon.

Esteban · 06-17-2015, 08:27 AM

Congrats on the car. Those spacers really make a difference!

iconone · 06-17-2015, 08:48 AM

^ Thanks dude!

iconone · 06-17-2015, 08:53 AM

Im sitting at a stop sign and get lightly rear ended by an older gentleman. Luckily he had insurance and covered everything.

iconone · 06-17-2015, 09:02 AM

Dropped the car off at Imperial collision in Houston to get it fixed.

Butch and his team did an excellent job on the bumpers and paint. Went with the 1m rep front and rear bumpers.

Esteban · 06-17-2015, 09:10 AM

That 1M replica front bumper looks great!

iconone · 06-17-2015, 09:13 AM

Picked up a trunk lip and a rear window lip painted for $130 shipped. That tape was a pain in the ass to get off.

On the big stuff I found it best to roll the top down and the bottom up to the middle and pull it off.

I had to buff the trunk because I could still see the lines from the oem lip.

Not sure if I like the window lip or not.

iconone · 06-17-2015, 09:20 AM

Picked up a set of 261 wheels and had them installed.

Then found a set of apex arc-8 two weeks later lol.

Marc08EX · 06-17-2015, 09:30 AM

Car looks good and you're making very good progress for 3 months! I love the 1M front bumper, the wheels and the spoiler!

iconone · 06-17-2015, 09:43 AM

Thanks! Next I'm going for power mods so I can get a pro tune. I have an injen intake to put on just haven't got to it yet. Thinking a cp with a tial bov and either meth or a fuel pump for e85. I will be doing inlets as well.

inFamousKicks · 06-17-2015, 11:26 AM

Coming along nicely

optigrab · 06-17-2015, 12:17 PM

what was the cost to paint and install the front bumper

iconone · 06-17-2015, 12:35 PM

$780 shipped for the bumpers f&r. Not sure what they charged for paint.

ryan.ferguson · 06-17-2015, 12:49 PM

Anymore pictures of the rear bumper? Where'd you purchase them from?

iconone · 06-17-2015, 01:00 PM

This is the seller I get them from. If you order them together you get $70 off.
