Funny story - I ordered the chrome front grills for this. I think it looks absolutely incredible. So anyhow I'm in the dealership and after doing all the business I get the grills from the trunk of the Audi, and go into here, open the hood. I pulled off the black grills, and everyone inside the dealership is looking at me in horror. My dealer is too, and he's like you sure you know what you're doing. I'm like they're just supposed to pop out. They did. He's like you know you're probably the first person in the history of the dealership to rip apart a bmw in this bay. So I open the nice packaging for the chrome grills, pop them in. They look so incredible. Got the thumbs up from everyone inside and smiles, all the looks of horror went away.. My girl went to use the ladies room while I was doing this and she said when she came out every person around was staring at me and wondering what was going on. The grills look amazing, at night the chrome grills, the blue, and the xenon lights/housing look unbelievable. I'll have to take some night pictures..

That room is

I'll be driving my 330 out of there in a few weeks. It will be my 3rd 3 Series to come out of that room

Do you really need to be "that guy" and try to ruin this good-spirited thread? Everyone else is having a good time and wants to see more pictures, if you don't like it don't participate in this thread just click back, don't ruin it for us..

Thank you I'm glad someone agrees. I don't understand I took delivery two days ago and am really excited. I don't understand why someone would post that. Everyone else is having a good time, why does this one (I will refrain my language here) have to get on and be so rude, and post to hear himself talk. If they're not interested in seeing pictures of a standard E90, just click back and don't look at the post... Don't ruin the fun for everyone else...

Ini, thank you again. I'm so annoyed, what an absolute piece of garbage!! That was so incredibly rude!!! Don't people remember from first grade "If you don't have anything constructive or nice to say, don't say it at all." Thanks for standing up for me, my girlfriend and I are sitting here baffled at how rude and obnoxious that was..

Since you want more pictures, you got 'em.. I'm reducing them down as we speak..

Hey congrats, yeah this garage is amazing. I didn't want to take it out. It was so nice in there.. I wanted to leave it in there and come visit every now and then and take some pictures. It sounds like there are some really good people around here with e90's, I would love to meet up sometime over the summer, and grab a bite to eat or something, talk cars..

Good point. I'd have preferred 12. Leave the dude alone and let him share his enthusiasm with us. IMO that's a big part of what this forum is all about.

Josh - those are the best shots I've seen of Mystic Blue. It looks very nice!

Thank you!! This made my day!! You wanted three more, you're getting three more, and two for good luck! I am so excited about this car, thats the reason I am here at this website!!!

Thank you again, I really appreciate your response..

The doorway to my e90:

You're awesome supernova, thanks for the that as well as the compliments..

LEDZEP · 03-19-2006, 05:06 PM

That "delivery room" they have there is pretty cool! And soon it will be Spring and you'll be able to open the sunroof and enjoy a nice drive.

ben1364 · 03-19-2006, 05:10 PM

Josh, Saw your multiple posts. Thank you for underscoring my humble suggestion. :-)

Car is absolutely incredibly. More pictures to come. Sorry for those who saw this on bimmerfest as well, just so incredibly happy right now!!!

hahaha, that was awesome!

KL2DC · 03-19-2006, 05:24 PM

Josh...Congratulations...the car looks great!!!

I think you got the grilles from Booster as well. I waited until I got back to do the mod...I second guessed myself as I proceeded to tug at the grilles. I must say the first cracking sound (as the original grilles pop out) was quite heart stopping

but everything worked out well. Very easy mod and highly recommended.

for the enclosed delivery area...next best thing to the Performance Center Delivery

How do you like the mudflaps? How much did the dealer charge you? More pics showing the mudflaps please... as you can deduce, I am considering this part but am quite unsure...

lux.sh · 03-19-2006, 05:37 PM

wow. crazy bodywork. nice paint job, aggressive bodykit, grill swap, headlight retrofit, oh man.
You must spent another 40g on your new mod.

it looks absoutely beautiful. that color is so damn nice in those pics. congrats!

Ben, I'm asking respectfully to not post another reply or word in this thread. At all. Personally, I couldn't even understand why you would be reading this, but in case you are, this is here. It should be obvious from everyone else's words as well as mine that no one agrees with you, and people want to talk, see pictures, and maybe even compliment me on my new purchase, and share the enthusiasm as suggested by LedZep. There are many other threads on this website, this one is mine, and I do not wish to see another post in this thread.

If this is a problem and I see another post with your name on it in this thread, I will have a talk with the administrators. You've been kindly asked to leave this thread I suggest you do.

xsb00st · 03-19-2006, 08:02 PM

hahaha...that is hilarious! Congrats on the NEW mod!

Hey man don't worry about it. You have an awesome car and you should be out driving right now!

Mystic Blue looks awesome with chrome! I would have definitely gotten MB if it was avalaible during August

Enjoy the car!!
