BMW Performance body kit

BanziBarn · 11-09-2009, 02:35 PM

Hi All,

I've seen a White 330d for sale with the performance bodykit and wheels inc the carbon fibre lip spoiler (as per pic but with no stripe)

I was just wondering what the general consensus is on the kit, the car looks quite aggressive and 'in your face' but I do quite like it.

Its got red brown leather interior and virtually every extra you can get. My main concern with with the looks are the wheels (prefer the normal 19s) and the carbon spoiler (think I like colour coded ones better)

What do you guys think of the looks of the car?

AlanQS · 11-09-2009, 02:37 PM

It looks good. Paint the carbon fibre tips. I also think the wheels look good.

M3-FAST · 11-09-2009, 02:38 PM

I think they look great -lots of dealers seems to have one in at the moment!

I would go for it......and add the stripe

- Performance wheels are defo better than std 19's and not heard of any cracking yet?

How about getting the spoiler colour coded but leaving just the edge of the carbon exposed? A little like the pic below, sure you get the jist!

BanziBarn · 11-09-2009, 03:08 PM

Thanks for your replies!

Spoiler looks good! I wonder how much getting it painted will cost?

Seen one similar for sale at a dealer. I really like it

PM Darren Edwards, there may be a deal to be had if it's a Sytner car.

M3-FAST · 11-09-2009, 04:16 PM

Looks great - not 100% sure about the silver interior trim with the red leather. Would look great with the carbon trim inside. Also would look really good with the stripe added and black grilles.

Lovely looking motor and very distinctive. A head turner IMO

That looks nasty. Just looks like the cars dirty.

Dr Dave · 11-10-2009, 12:32 AM

Yeah agree, or like the paint has been worn off the spoiler!

TMP · 11-10-2009, 02:35 AM

Liking the body kit

, not so sure about colour coded spoiler

Gorgeous car. Makes me almost wish I got a sedan.....or whatever you call 4 doors in the uk. I forget!

(btw, I love how on top gear, they say cou-PE! I love the weird looks I get when I say that around here)

You lot have 'sedans' with 'trunks and hoods'

we have 'saloons' with 'boots and bonnets'

We say coop-ay - you say coop!

Neil McRae · 11-10-2009, 09:58 AM

looks superb mate, I'd go for it.

Yeah, thats awesome! Im only gonna say it the UK way now since it is a european car!

Dr Dave · 11-10-2009, 03:49 PM

Bit like "I'm in the can!"

I'd say "I'm 'aving a piss!"

COLSEN · 11-11-2009, 01:49 AM

Love the car, I'd keep it exactly how it is.
My local dealer had one in that looked identical (not the same engine though) and it even tempted me to get a quote for those alloys!!

samchuang33 · 11-11-2009, 06:53 PM

looks great!

I have that pic as my wallpaper

chris_s1 · 11-12-2009, 05:39 AM

My car is virtually identical to that (on the exterior anyway).

I have gone off the boot spoiler and will be having it removed when I get round to it.
Although it does make a really good handle for opening/closing the boot!

Mine has the black kidney grills, which IMHO improve the look of the front no end.

Wheels are awesome and easy to clean to boot.

Just checked out your 'garage' - the car looks great and the black grilles defo finish it off

Our local dealer has one with the stripe on and I think that really suits it too
