135i widebody build, looking to replicate, any info would be nice

I saw this video of a black widebody 135i a while ago and am looking for details of his build, haven't been able to find any, maybe someone on here will recognize it?

Most people here know this car, courtesy of ilikebmxbikes. If I was going to imitate a 1er, this would be a serious one to consider. As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Not everybody can afford a car like this, but damn, it is something special. Will never get tired of watching this video.

Don't think he means it in a good way.

Idk, I like it! Looks like a functional, inexpensive way to get more rubber under our cars for the track. If my car was for track duty only, I'd definitely consider something like this before the hassle and cost of a 1M conversion

I like how it looks, I'd also like to put wider than a 265 on my car.... So cutting the fenders and doing flares will be a blast! lmao.... Hoping I can get 305s to 315s in the back after the flares. I had planned on going with clinched flares if I couldn't find out this build.

This is the sort of thinking that produced all of those trashed, modified, E-46 M3s, that no one in their right mind would buy. But thanks, anyway!

(Some) of my revulsion at ruining a perfectly good car with the sort of photos on this thread have to do with an unfortunate experience that I was involved in. Someone that I know (can't divulge exactly WHO), bought a heavily modified E36 M3 with very low mileage, thinking that he would revert it back to stock.

When the vehicle arrived, it became extremely obvious that the car should really be driven off a cliff, as nothing could be done to restore this POS. It quickly acquired the name

The Purple Pig

The vehicle was immediately driven to a used car lot where it was eventually sold at long distance, to someone who presumably discovered the error he had made when it arrived. But I digress.

Here are some pictures:

Their fault for buying that to revert back to stock. I also don't mod my cars with the next owner in mind. Never have.
