Fathers 135i Le Mans blue + some minor mods

[MihaSLO]

Here we go...:

Eh, f*ck covering the license plate:biggrin:














Sweeet:roundel:


Rear arches, better in flesh:





''Golf tee mode'' already, car is a bit louder, but not much, father revved it to about 3000rpm standing still, and I was listening to it outside.
The car wants to say with his sound: ''Hey, M3 E46 is my brother, god demmit'':biggrin:


Still break-in period, sound at 7k must be crazy.



Painted rear arms, they are silver stock, and when you look a car from 10 m behind, they shine out like exhaust on a '93 Civic(sorry to all Civic owners:biggrin



This Le Mans blue is hard for taking pics, it just doesn't show her self in all her glory+ ''flame surfacing'' design doesn't help either.

All in all; you have to see this car in RL, it is so much better. :eyebulge:

Is this that wierd unformley overhang on the eye people are talking about? Or am a I paranoid?

[MihaSLO]

Yes this is it, but nothing critical in real life, you won't even notice that.
I still haven't figured out why it's there in first place, but, well,...

They designed it that way to increase drag. They don't want the car going that fast:biggrin:

where Excatly does the golf tee go????

[Twisted]

Great pictures.

My only concern with LMB is in lots of sunlight it comes off as too much of a light blue?

Thanks for the close-up of the boot spoiler. I was curious how it looked but never saw a good picture of it. Also, could you post any before and after paint comparisons of the rear arms? I thought I was the only one who thought these were overtly noticeable.

Gotta love that Le Mans blue colour :smile: Stunning car!

[MihaSLO]

I forgot to take picture, we put a hose on that valve so there can't go any dirt in there, and the other hose, we just simply fixed it under the bonnet on some screw. 5 min of work.

I'm not at home currently, I'll try to find pictures of unpainted rear arms.

[spudw]

Really nice shots!

Did you paint the golf tee black as well?:biggrin:

[MihaSLO]

Unpainted rear control arms. Not the same angle of pic, but you get the idea.
