View Full Version : What mods do you have planned this summer?
ians325 05-05-2007, 07:52 PM I dont know about everyone else but this is my first weekend of summer and I have alot of stuff planned for my car. So I started off the list by painting my calipers and changing brake pads and rotors. I also plan on getting a new bumper and and a CAI. But i was interested in what everyone else has planned?
Here are some pictures. I painted them the closest i could get to the bmw blue.

lcjhnsn 05-05-2007, 08:28 PM In March I installed Ireland Engineeriing subframe bushings. The weekend before last I installed an M50 intake manifold, last weekend I did PBR Ultimate brake pads, braided SS hoses and Speedbleeders and Ireland Engineering transmission mounts. This weekend I painted calipers (red). Still in the garage waiting their turn are Bilstein struts & shocks, Ireland Engineering rear shock mounts, braided SS clutch hose (CDV delete) and a Speedbleeder for the clutch slave cylinder. Then I'll be satisfied for a while.
ians325 05-05-2007, 08:34 PM awsome! i put in pbrs today too.

Calypso-325is 05-06-2007, 02:41 PM I'll be doing H&R coilovers, as well as putting on the x-brace and remus exhaust from my 325is onto the M3.
At the same time as the coilovers, I am replacing all bushings with powerflex, as well as putting Ground Control rear shock mounts in.
Cosmetics wise, I will be blacking out the front grill as well as replacing all the hood and wheel emblems with black and silver carbon fiber ones.
UUC SS Brake lines and clutch line (CDV delete) will be going in as well.
Depending on how the finances are, possibly a new 3-spoke steering wheel.
:D
chickentoe82 05-12-2007, 12:21 PM im hoping to get some new rims/tires. maybe front and rear sway bar. plus new rear shock, painting the side skirts(black again) possibly lowering it if i have the money for it.
