New front aero for white modded 135

JRB135 · 04-04-2010, 03:42 PM

Decided to freshen up the front of the 135 (which I have posted in the past).

New additions:

BMW Sport Aero front bumper (supplied by BR Racing).
Thanks to Dell Autobody for the paint work and the fabrication of the custom front bumper diffuser (satin black). Gives the car a wider front stance when viewed in person.

Other modifications already posted:

1. Hartge rear spoiler (molded into trunk), rear diffuser
2. BMW performance side skirts: custom vents added
3. Hartge 4 tip exhaust (powder coated black tips), mid pipe silencer removed.
4. BMW performance carbon fiber mirror covers
5. Mod Bargains black kidney grills
7. Roof: painted BMW brilliant black
8. front lights: grey tint covers from **********s
9. Motoskin (thanks Mark) clear armor the front
10. rear lights and brake lights: paint lite smoke tint
11. Dinan: stage 2 ECU remap. awesome performance gains. $2.2K
12. AST coilover suspension, model #5100: springs rate 450 front and rear. Additional drop of 3/8 in rear, and 1/4 in front (thanks BR Racing)
13. X5 White LED Angel Eyes, from Mod Bargains
14. ASR cold intake (powder coated white to match eng. bay) by BR Racing.
15. custom forged (21-22 lbs ea.) wheels from kartoyz:
20 X 10 rear, 285/250/20
20 X 10 front, 235/30/20
powder coated satin black
Pirelli tires P-zeros: 235 X 30/20 front, 285 X 25/20 rear

Next up will be set of 18 or 19's for street and track use.

Looks great!
kinda looks better than the oem one.
i dont know why? it just does.
but damn those 20's
could have gone 19's and would have looked just as great given the spoke design.
20's just look like 22's on your ride.
but overall it looks great.

esscolab · 04-04-2010, 04:27 PM

Lowered a bit too much, like the quad exhausts though.

twenzel · 04-05-2010, 08:55 AM

wheels look dumb.. everything else looks pretty neat.

M3Newbie88 · 04-05-2010, 10:15 AM

I love what you did.. other than the rims.. they are different... but it doesn't float my boat but as long as it does for you though its all good.

SV Concepts III · 04-05-2010, 11:44 AM

Looks really clean, very well put together.

all looks good, not sure about the lip though! Thought about putting splitters instead? Love the trunk for sure!

pompano1000 · 04-06-2010, 09:51 AM

Your 135i looks amazing!

Ron@Modbargains · 04-06-2010, 11:42 AM

Your car looks amazing, very clean. Glad we could help be apart of helping it transform

vanbmw · 04-06-2010, 12:50 PM

I like the white with the black theme. Car looks very good. I really like the rear diffuser and the finish on it looks trick. Only thing...why did you not go with a black rear spoiler? You have the black front lip...it would look cool to have the rear carbon fiber black spoiler. Nice work!

radiantm3 · 04-06-2010, 01:26 PM

Looks great, but as others have said, those wheels are waaaay too big for the 1er.

Johan@WSTO · 04-06-2010, 06:42 PM

Oh wow!! Looks awesome!

quattrosaint · 04-06-2010, 07:11 PM

amazing..................just amazing

BahamaBart · 04-06-2010, 07:23 PM

I think it looks great. I like the overall cleanliness of the look / lines.

JRB135 · 05-16-2010, 02:40 PM

Great recommendations on making the front diffuser Black polish instead of flat. Had it clear bra covered. Came out great. Also adjusted front end drop an additional 3/8 in.
