Smile Hello ballers and sexy ladies

I bought a '95 BMW 318ti yesterday. It's my first BMW. I'm already in love with
it. I am planning a stereo, angel eyes, M3 front bumper and better rims. Here
are some pics:







This is a great messageboard. So many of you have such nice looking cars.

Welcome to the site!!

The search function is a great help to finding almost any answer.

Your care looks extremely clean!

If your going to get an M3 bumper, I'd suggest painting the side skirts. And for angel eyes you have to buy euro lights to.

You can just get a different (after 96) side skirt setup and rear diffuser if you wanted, then the M3 bumper.

Do the stock side skirts take paint well? They look like rubber or plastic and are bumpy.

WElcome to the site, those arent really sidskirts. Mine are liek that on my car and i hate them! I got factory sideskirts from a 97 M3 you can get them on ebay for like $150, I just havent gotten around to painting them and installing them yet. But your car looks super clean man! ENJOY!

Not to persuade you away from the angel eyes, but if you want to make your car unique, steer clear of them They're a dime a dozen these days

oh ya, and welcome to the site!

They paint ok. You can check my gallery to see pics of the grey painted. There is also another method where you can more or less scrape off the grey and underneath you will find body color paint and welcome to the site.
