LONG POST! My 2009 BMW 135i E82 Car Build From Beginning To End Sorta...

nsquared · 10-06-2012, 10:54 PM

Simply one of the best cars I've seen in the BMW world. Absolutely amazing!

So serious question. When you bought the car it sounds like you were strapped for cash which we all understand so I assume you didn't have a beater? If you did then it makes sense, but if you did not how did you manage to only get in the rain 19 times in 3.7 years when driving to all these shoots and it being your only ride?

Love reading through this thread. Thanks for putting it together. All shots amazing, especially the interiors.

Current setup is my favorite

Brilliant shots my friend! I dabble with a bit in the hot rod/custom scene here in Vancouver BC.. would love to check out some more of your work. You've inspired me to document my progress in a similar fashion!

i have a question , the 1M mirror's : is it plug and play ? or is there work on it

Nice thread John! Too bad I'm not part of the 135i community anymore with you. Your car has come a long way and it keeps getting better each year. I'll see you around at the car shows!

Thanks guys.

1M mirrors are plug and play as I do not have heated mirrors.

I forget the offsets of my CCWs.

I do have a beater to go to places that are unsafe or where a lowered car can't

A few new mods soon.
