I like the blocks myself but its very rare that you get an opportunity to build a wheel with a 4.0F and 5.5R Lips, We did 360 Spec 5's on his 997 Turbo and his plans are to eventually order a set of HRE P40's for it so he can change it up a little bit. So maybe he might do the same for the M3 although we both agreed that the COR F1 Bravas look hot too on the car as well.

All three of the sets I posted will work on the M3 (I cross shopped all 3 when I was choosing LED's for my M3 Sedan). The E90s and E92s have different light setups in 335 form, but the M3's all have the same lights whether it's a coupe or sedan.

Dinan's Intake was installed today.... Pictures and lots of video of the exhaust were taken

We will try to get them up before the weekend.

Hey Matthew, I would also recommend the Angel iBright LEDs from EAS. They are super easy to install and look great. It's a simple solution to replacing the stock angel eyes.

Beautiful M3

We showed pictures with the stock wheels lowered and the HRE's lowered.

Thanks for taking the time to ready the whole thread. I will check them out and see about getting a set. Thanks again.

Side Note, Big thanks to Cameron who edited the video we took of the M3. I thought it came out pretty well considering the unusual amount of traffic in the area. It's usually dead in that area.


We have these systems in stock, I really would like to know what everyone else thought of it.

Not a huge fan of the wheels. I like a more polished wheel on a darker car...

Amir, I can't say for sure because we didn't put it on a dyno. This has been a year long project since the day he dropped it off to us. Performance wise, we immediately put the wheels and exhaust on and the car. Since then we have installed the Sprint Booster and I drove it afterwards and the car was extremely responsive especially in M Mode. We then later added the pulley and ECU and we felt that the car was a little bit quicker, and then after installing the Dinan intake you could feel the car added a little more power again. Most of the power it seems to have increased around the mid to high RPM range. I can't say how much power but the customer is happy with the money he has spent considering we are still waiting for the supercharger to come out and we don't know how much that's going to be and the RS46 Motor from RD Sport is $30,000 so the $2000 for the ECU and Pulley upgrade installed was an easy decision.
