Arrow LBB 1M anyone ?

What do you guys think of this LBB 1M ? I think it looks rather stunning! This car was built by Kotte-Performance. It also seems to feature a cf roof, cf trunk and BMW Performance seats(with some nice quilting work also matching door inserts) and an alcantara Performance steering wheel. It also looks like the headlights have US coding for the DRL side lights.

I think the LBB looks....



Thoughts ?

Nope... stunning on the M2, but LBB looks a bit tacky on the 1M.

1M is still best with orange or black.

Is it me? Headlights look pre-LCI? 1M has LCI headlights

I think people are so used to seeing it on the m2, that it looks weird on the older body 1m.

Not sure it's real 1M, and I'm not feeling the quilted interior, but it looks OK overall. Nice to see different colors from time to time.

I don't mind this at all -- might have sprung for this color if offered at launch. Agree that the black trunk ruins it.

Looks like it has the 135i 6pot and 2pot brakes.
Retrimmed Recaros..not a fan of the quilted look either, but kudos for the effort.

Need to have him take some proper pictures out in the sun with a good camera. Looks like cell phone pictures to me. Doesn't seem to do it justice.

I'm not a fan sorry.

The color just doesn't work for me at all on this chassis and there are about 5 different blues I would favor. The intense blue from another thread for example.

This appears to be a 135 conversion to a "1M"

The rear wheels looks cartoonishly large.

The headlights are not the lci lights and look worse.

Not a fan of the black decklid - have an aftermarket decklid but you don't make it so known.

Power dome on the hood - meh -

That's a large and bulky power seat ... it appears to be from another brand ? Interesting quilting.

Is that a cf roof conversion ? Bonus points

paint the trunk, add the actual 1M headlights with the eye brows then it would work better

Slap on a painted regular trunk w/ CF spoiler + a painted stock hood w/o bulge + LCI headlights + 359M wheels and LBB may actually be a decent on the 1M.

Exhaust tips in chrome or anything silver/grey would make it work better too.

CF roof conversion is cool. It's a shame they butchered a set of real BMWP seats...
