Overdue pics of my recent mods

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
It's been ages since I've taken any pics (shame on me) and I know how much I love looking at what others have done so I decided to be a good citizen and give back to the community. A buddy of mine (thanks Manik!) from work took these for me up at Torrey Pines in San Diego.

Have a few other things that I'm working on in the next few weeks and will post pics when those are done as well. All mods are listed in my sig.

Comments/feedback most welcome.

Looks good, what did you use to get the 135i badge to line up perfectly? That's the only thing preventing me from getting that is because I'm terrible at lining things up right, lol.

Car looks perfect to me, well done. With that said, the only minor OCD thing I'd do is either lower the rear a bit, or raise the front on the driver's side.

Dude, I'm totally OCD and you're spot on. After seeing these pics, I noticed that the front was sitting a little lower and I raised the fronts about 3/8" the next day. My next set of pics will show a more level stance. Was thinking about lowering the rears a bit instead but they're (1) a PITA to adjust compared to fronts and (2) I'm very close to rubbing already back there on inner fender liner and didn't feel like doing any fender work. Thanks for the comments!

BTW - I'll be putting my 245s back on the front now that I've raised the front about 1/2". I took them off and put 235s on only because the spring perch was VERY close to rubbing with the 245s but now I have plenty of clearance so they'll be going back on. Also, once the 265s wear down, I'll be putting 275s on the rear as there's a lot of room back there for them. So she'll be even beefier very soon!
