BMW 325Ci Goes M3!

[mgrannas]

Well hey guys'n girls!
Thought i could share my new project here too!
Maybe you remember the matte red/yellow-pearl Audi A6 that i smashed in the land of ice (sweden)


This time i bought an BMW 325Ci. Here it is from scratch to finish!


Did an order of some D2 coilovers!


A snap of the interior..


another one from the stocklook.


ordered some temporary wheels for the summer! (ABS Wheels 355)


coils and rims mounted!


ordered some carbonfibre, CSL-trunk and a GTR-hood..



more parts from the junkyard, M3-fenders and rear bumper



more carbon, frontspoiler!


and some noisy stuff.. Mmmm titanium


time to clean the car cuz it's time to get wider!



changing the rims so they dont get hurt! (skinny me at the pic )



converting....


voila?


tear down rest of the car!


had to make some more room for the exhaust, just cut the sparetiretrunk-thing!


testing testing...


time to paint the got damn stuff! (i work as an painter! )




time to protect the metal from rust!


mirrors


some stuff mounted, dirty!


checking everything before we go to the car inspection (MOT)


some LEDs in the rear


trying out the spoiler..


and now everything is ready for the inspection!!




went through ezpz.. here's an pic from Bimmers Of Sweden @ Mantorp Park (record this time with 1050 BMW's) this weekend!




so, what do you think so far??

Beautiful. Great job on the body work and color choice.

Just needs a badge on the hood and some more aggressive wheels now.

Not what I would have done, but I really like the work you put down. Good job and I do like the blue. Wheel plans?

[DeMaroE46]

Looks awesome man! So is that the stock motor with M3 exhaust?

[mgrannas]

Thanks all!
Yeah im searching for the perfect wheels...
Yupp its correct DeMaroE46

[jbginger]

I like it. I don't know why I just do. Great work

[244Brick]

I was not expecting that!

[RubbderDucky]

Looks very nice, and good work went into it for sure. But I gotta ask, why not just trade the 325 in or sell it and get a real M3?

[SLAMMED_C]

That's a lot of work, but very nicely done. Colour looks great too. You know your way around a paint booth!
Any wheel plans? Need something aggressive!

Thanks, alot of people have asked me that!
For sure a real M3 is way better BUT its really expensive to own and take care of.. And if i want more horsepower in my car, its always easy to just change some parts and voila, i got a car that smashes stock M3's!

Thanks man, glad to hear that u like it!
Im thinking of 3SDM 0.01 or something similar, or do you have any suggestion?

[mgrannas]

Fridays = Waxday!
On monday Im going to get black turn signals in the front, should i have it at the fenders to?
here's a pic with the winterwheels
Clean and sexy!!

[mgrannas]

anyone got some tips for wheels?

[royalife]

i curious to hear how it sounds with that exhaust set up.....

[Semu]

Oh wow!
Never thought Laguna Seca Blue with Carbon would look this good!

And about wheels, this sitting on some HRE FF01-s would be sick.
