Re: Opinion Needed - Nice or Ah Beng?
I saw a similiar setup car at a shell petrol kiosk a few days back. E90 mod to look like M3.....erm the quality wasnt that good, the E90 is black in colour, and the owner sprayed the carbon fibre hood to black and the paint wasnt thick enough, still can see the carbon fibre weave and the fitting wasnt very good. Seems of poor quality. Paintwork for the M3 fenders seem quite bad also. Rear wasnt wide enough, so the owner put a lower lip to widen the rear....made the rear look strange. And coupled with the taiwanese led rear lamps, made the car look like a jap ricer.....
Honestly for bodykits, please try to get original or from a reputable manufacturer, else the wavy paintwork and fit and finish leaves alot more to be desired.
Be original in ur mods, don mod a non M to look like an M, just like an Impreza mod to look like wrx........
I'm using the original M Aero kit with original carbon fibre splitters at the front. Thats all. Simple and nice IMO.

lately i've got tired of my humble stock e90 black car look and am quite hung on the following :-
respray to white colour, add some body kit (looking at mtech kit with m3 front)
with m3 side fender
grills change to matt black
19" matt black rims
go to fong kim change exos cutter to twin pipe
i know its quite ricer, but please tell me, will it be nice or does it scream Ah Beng?
i believe this setup will come close to $10k so i'm really wondering if really shoud do it.
