Arrow M-Tech Body Kits

The supercharger made my 1er driving more fun than before.
http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=563787

This weekend I took it cruising around town. Now it's easy to have a spirited driving.

After installing s/c kit, I decided to change my front bumper to cover the huge intercooler from ARMA. So I replace with the new M-tech front bumper. Grille changed as well.

How about it?

I like it alot though, it's subtle, almost stock-like and it does its job hiding the intercooler!
Classy mod imo

Description

The power performance of BMW 6-cylinder N52 is pretty competitive, but in the realm of BMW, the E9X M3 from the 3-series is always being the leading roll on the street. The 335 Twin-Turbo Superchargers also give very outstanding result. Although it is 6-cylinder engine, but the 3-series without supercharging system, they still can not compete with the M3 and 335 Twin-Turbo of 4.0. ARMA has further boosted the 3-series 6-cylinder autos’ power, and the motorists for this natural inlet motor are able to challenge the 355s. This system is exclusively added the ARMA-developed STAGE-2 mechanical supercharging system. The horsepower testing shows that the N52 323 2.5 engine’s torque can reach to the level at 313PHP 370 NM, and the 325 2.5 can drive to the torque at 350HP 410NM, moreover, the 330s are even comparable to the torque of V8M3 at 425HP 510NM. The Front Mount Air-to-Air Intercooler, exclusive computer and ARMA Exhaust are the indispensables to push the 3-series to the ultimate. To equip the full kit of ARMA Mechanical Supercharging System is the best buy for the 3-series owners.

Stage 2
This is the most complete SUPERCHARGER Kit. The estimated installation time should be only around 6 to 8 hours under normal circumstances.
