I am not sure why you guys are knocking this guy for customizing his 3 series. The reason most people customize their cars like this is because they either couldn't afford a more expensive car at the time or modified the car a little at a time. Furthermore, if he went to a car show with an M3 with rims, then he wouldn't win anything, obviously he wanted to take home some trophies. I have seen many lower priced cars with the same amount of money invested in them, yes it may not be practical, but if that's what he wants to do then I respect that. The car in this case came out clean and not overdone, so I congratulate him on it.

FWIW, I've sat in this 128i a few times now. It only has the Tii body kit (plus the steering wheel and seats). It is not a widebody car.

I'm not a fan of making a non-M indistinguishable from an M. The fenders are over-the-top for me. Not that it doesn't looks good (because it does), but it's along the same lines of putting M badges on your non-M car to me.

somehow, an m3 power dome on a 335 feels like it should be an immediate red card. still, it does look fantastic.

I saw that car in the service drive at the dealership about a month ago. At first I thought it was an M with minimal and beautiful mods. Then I looked closer and realized it was not an M. Then I heard the service guys snickering about it. Poser car. Not my words, but I have to agree.

I know. Check the original picture. I extended the bumper- length and width wise with photoshop.

That is at today's exchange rate. The other parts are pretty expensive as well. It includes everything including new doors...Here is that page in english:
