That air dam is beautiful! :yikes:

The interior isn't my personal style, but nicely done in any case.

Big :thumbup: for the car!

Very nice ride Technic! I like the front too. I like the headlights on the sedans they flow alittle more with their pull in the back and point in the bottom middle, and 18's nice choice. There's not that many cars out there that I've seen optioned like yours.

I'm pretty sure BMW doesn't do tint, but do they?? The local place that did 20% all the way around my last car went out of business....

Nah, there isn't much of a chance that they have the facilities within the dealer. They will happily refer you to a third-party shop that they have heard good news about, but then again it could just be the sales manager's brother's garage. :confused:

Great Photos.

Once question, what is that beautiful exterior color? Is it Orient Blue or Black? I can't tell. I'm sure Orient Blue kind of looks black in different shading.

ooooohhhhhhhh

What beauty. It is blinding. Mine should look as hot, only with the Coupe.

I think I will keep the standard wood, but the Birch is nice. Where can I buy just the steering wheel wood piece, and about how much for the myrtle wood?

thanks for sharing

You see, a pic of a real Orient Blue (very sweet, BTW) comes out so much better than what we see at the official site:

In Ft. Lauderdale, FL, $200 for the M Technic and $100 for the Ebay mirrors, paint and installation.

it was $200 for the M-tek bumper? that's crazy, i definitely though it was nearly $800?! just what i read a while back when it first came out. And the mirrors: are they real M3 mirrros or replicas? Can you give me the info on both of these as they are to be added as soon as...well, you tell me how and it seems viable!
lastly--did you install it all yourself or take it somewhere/dealer it? if so, for how much?

I don't mean to pry, but I love your car and I'm very curious!

thanks,
matt

The $200 was for paint and installation of the M Technic bumper, not for the bumper itself. The bumper with all the trim, minus foglights, is around $350 only if you are a BMWCCA member and receive the 20% discount off retail at participating part departments . I bought mine from The BMW Store in Ohio, you can check also Hendricks BMW in North Carolina.

Foglights are $180.00 if you do not have them. If your car is a 330i with the Sport package you already have them.

The mirrors are the infamous $89.99 eBay M3 Replicas. Paint and installation cost me $100.00, and that included swaping the OEM motors to the new housings (no wires were cut). All features (tilt, memory, but no heating) are retained.

Hope that this helps.

I really like that Nat Brown + Burch wood combo. How did you get it? It is available in Canada but the bmwusa site does not offer it as an option. Did the dealer place a custom order for you?

I do believe you lucky Canucks can just ask for it when ordering. There's alot of color combos that you can order even here in the States that BMWUSA's website doesn't allow. For example, a silver grey/Nat brown combo.

I bought the birch in www.eurobuyers.com, however, it is an OEM option in Canada. In the USA it is not offered as an option nor an accessory.
