Looks great Mike. Now get the GoPro and make some drive-by videos for us
Must be nice to have a view like that from the balcony. I can only see the longest road in Europe out of mine

Loving the mods you've done so far. They are inline with the car's aesthetics. What is next? Are you planning on getting an ECU tune or perhaps some Brembo brakes with color coded calipers?

I'm going to keep the brakes as they are for now. I kind of like the stealth look with the gloss black wheels.

Vorsteiner trunklid is next, that's already been ordered. I'm busy pondering on some wheels, but the vendors on the board are sorting me out with that

MikeS,
Your car looks really awesome!! love it!
Ever heard of Brabham? They make the coolest M3's ever, and they look a bit like yours just a little bit more wider. Google it if you have some time, you might like it.

Latest updates!

I would like to thank all the vendors that patiently helped me out. For the ones that I did not do any business with, don't worry there will be more in the future

Ordered me some ADV7.1 monoblocks in gloss black from Jon at Wheels Boutique.


Also getting some Brembo BBK's for the front and rear (the largest one ) from Jon.


Nate@IND is hooking me up with a challenege USA CF/CK trunklid!




and a Dinan high flow intake to go with my other Techno craft items.

I can't believe I haven't seen this yet! Mike you are living the dream... that view from your balcony?!?!? Amazing.

And your M3 is perfect. PERFECT. I can't wait to see the finished project.
