On a brighter note!

jksgoh · 10-19-2009, 02:01 AM

Hey guys, If you haven't read, i got into a little accident a few days ago, which is a bit of a bummer. But on a brighter note look what i received from the UK today!
Will put it on in a few days!

Nice. details please! where from the UK and how much landed? much savings?

jksgoh · 10-19-2009, 02:37 AM

was lucky enough to find it second hand on uk ebay. and its in pretty good condition.
the winning bid was about 320GBP and the postage was 100GBP (~800AUD), which i thought was quite (relatively speaking!) reasonable considering it costs over 2k here in aus (i think).

I didnt know this until recently, but if you search "international" on the aus ebay, it doesn't show up everything from other countries. So in this case i actually found it specifically searching the UK ebay. Most you guys probably knew that though lol

That'll look fantastic on a white car, well done mate.

jksgoh · 10-19-2009, 11:40 PM

cheers thanks mate, going to wait till i clean up the car a little before i put it on as its absolutely filthy atm, which will hopefully be this w/e

Looks gorgeous jksgoh, take some nice pics

cozza · 10-21-2009, 06:56 PM

Damn! Nice find Jono!

chylld · 10-21-2009, 09:32 PM

I thought your accident involved your front bumper... the pic above looks like a rear diffuser?

edit: understand if you don't actually intend to replace the front bumper with this part. looks awesome, pics pics pics!!!

jksgoh · 10-24-2009, 06:49 PM

Hey guys,
here are the pics! Finally gave my car a wash and installed the diffuser.
Took me a few mins to figure out the best way to get the damn clips on the diffuser out from the car, but got there in the end!
anyway, absolutely love the way it looks!

jksgoh · 10-24-2009, 06:50 PM

oh, and what do you guys think of my 135i like exhaust tips =D

d3syd · 10-24-2009, 07:16 PM

Very nice! The diffuser and the exhaust tips. CF looks best on AW cars imo.

zenderm3 · 10-24-2009, 09:21 PM

Looks great! Definitely like the CF/AW combo!

Zuzu · 10-24-2009, 10:21 PM

Awesome...definitely looks the money...well done.

aus135i · 10-24-2009, 11:57 PM

jksgoh · 10-26-2009, 12:54 AM

You really need to clean those TIPS

125i exhaust tips are a soft silver colour, yours are almost BLACK

hahha, i do vaguely remember what colour they were back when i picked the car up!
i think i only cleaned them once in the 15 or so months i've had it!

dr.bmw · 10-26-2009, 05:06 AM

love the look!

Totti · 10-26-2009, 06:44 AM

Fucking awesome looking difuser. Makes me so envious! Going to do the perf mods in my sig for now, revisit the difuser + exhaust combo in a few months down the track.

cozza · 10-27-2009, 12:53 AM

Looks sweet dude! Wish I could get one at the price you paid.

My exhaust tips are almost black as well!
