Wow now those are some pictures.. really wished you guys made side skirts too and even a roof spoiler but you guys are one of the vendors who delievered what you promised.. gonna keep checking you guys out.. might look to buy some of the stuff in the spring.. winter is pretty brutal on our cars in Canada.. props..

1ntense_Rocket · 12-03-2009, 12:02 AM

haha yeah, ^ Canadian winters are quite brutal.. everything looks good! the exhaust tips look a little big for my taste though =/

bmwsam · 12-03-2009, 12:12 AM

Gorgeous pictures!!! I can't wait for my icarbon diffuser to come!

Mega Man · 12-03-2009, 12:18 AM

Those're some high quality pics!

BMW86 · 12-03-2009, 12:33 AM

Dayyuummm!!! That's exactly what my car will look like minus the amber turning lights

Great pics guys, look forward to receiving the parts soon!! From these pics I actually think the 135i looks hotter than the M3 as well.

BBK · 12-03-2009, 02:13 AM

Nice... does the 135i have an aftermarket intercooler or has the gaurd just been removed?

SlicktopTTZ · 12-03-2009, 08:51 AM

Do you have side skirts in the works?

Qbone · 12-03-2009, 08:59 AM

avsbmw · 12-03-2009, 09:06 AM

it would be sweet to have BMW center caps

merlinbk · 12-03-2009, 09:46 AM

Cool shots! I'm looking forward to taking some shots in that area whenever my car comes in.

ulrichd · 12-03-2009, 10:46 AM

lol...you're telling me...i'm trying to figure out how i can tell the wife that its a GREAT idea to get another car.

new2the3 · 12-03-2009, 11:59 AM

The car looks great but the rims look 10x better on the M3, they just don't look fantastic on the 135i IMO. I like the 313 BMW performance rims on the 135i. Also why remove the front IC mesh with the stock intercooler? The stock IC looks tiny. I do love the front lip though, that came out perfect. Exhaust tips appear to be slightly too large.

denisk · 12-03-2009, 12:07 PM

Love everything about it. How much is the front lip, spoiler and mirror caps

miro2296 · 12-03-2009, 12:13 PM

Awesome rides! Keep it up!

The wheels on the 1er are Alufelgen CF7 and the one on the M are SF7's. Front mesh was removed just to expose the puny stock intercooler a little better. Why hide it when its still an intercooler? You're right though it is begging for a HUGE monster of an intercooler in there.
