Hopefully the 1M conversion will be done in mid feb, then Stoptechs from HPA, then turbos (RB or Vargas) Even more impressive than the fender space is all of the space inside the wheel well. The 1M's two piece fender liner is made up of a rear e9x fender liner and the 1M specific front. There is seriously tons of room in there for rubber. |

I'm curious what the logistics for the back are. Are you going to drive down to LA and fly back, then fly down to pick it up? How long did they say it would take to do the rear?

In for updates. Id love to see this car in person when its done too. The front seems easy enough, its the rear that makes me a little nervous. Where are you taking it to have the rear done? I dont know of any reputable body shops around here. Also, are they just flaring the rear fenders or are they molding the specific 1M rear fenders with the 135 fenders? Looks great so far!

Great thread buddy, can't wait til insurance clears so I can write up my own Stoked for our trip! Everyone in Socal CLEAR UP A SUNDAY OR SATURDAY NIGHT THAT WORKS BEST FOR A MEETUP NEAR EL MONTE!!! For NorCal folks: when is bimmerfest this year? where is it? When and where does the Bay Area want to meet up? I'd be down to hit up a new road as long as it's reasonable. |

Looking good. I have a few questions though. Do you think it would look strange with just the 1M front end? And do the regular stock side skirts fit with the wide front end?

This is awesome, looking into doing this to my 1 as well so it can share a set of wheels with my E90 M3

I read though Tony's thread in Dec, he said he ran into exhaust fitment issue with the rear battery. I know you havent done the rear yet but could you please post up an update on that? Thank you so much
