Nice to see the beauty being pampered and spoilt. BTW something tells me next gift will be a Supercharger.
BTW the photo reminds me of the figo's interiors. So hi-res pics would be swell.

supercahrger just got crossed of my list... my friend got his m3 s/c'ed in Dubai and he suggested me not to go the s/c way as it ruins the feel of the NA M engine. So S/C not any time soon .

I can imagine your M3 is just gonna look more meaner with the carbon fibre boot lid and hood. Something like this...?

Scorcher · 21st April 2010, 00:29

Nice goodies there dude. The pics just don't do justice to the equips. Just need better ones. So when are these going on the car ? This would complete the NFS look of your M which begun with the CF lip

Cyrus43 · 21st April 2010, 00:31

Shattering!!! I hope you dont end up painting these! The weave looks fantastic.

FlyingSpur · 21st April 2010, 00:33

This is gonna be one sweet looker. Eagerly awaiting the next "gift".

That is the last thing I expect him to do, I don't think he bought em just for the weight-advantages

Could it be a new set of wheels?

That pic was taken from the Vorsteiner website itself. It's only that AM's M3 would have them in white.

Hi there. Nice goodies you got till now ! And are you going to paint the carbon fibre ?
If not will the carbon fibre trunk go well ?
Anyways good choice there. Im sure a pair of new shoes are on your list.

Not to rain on your parade, but I am not a fan of the Vorsteiner fitment. I have seen quite a lot of them in person, and I have noticed a lot of panel gaps. Hope its not the case for your car. Anyway, enjoy the CF parts.

accord masters · 21st April 2010, 10:28

well new shoes are not on the list because i cant imagine taking the stock 19" oem's off for two reasons
1. i love these rims
2. till date i dont have a good experience with aftermarket rims as the car is not as stable as before and plus the wobbles . Oh and the cf parts are NOT going to be painted .

It'll be great to see some naked carbon fibre on your white hot M3. Gonna be one awesome looking ride. How much weight does the bootlid and the hood save?

accord masters · 21st April 2010, 23:28
