Few shots of my 2013 E92 Melbourne red

patrick smith · 04-12-2015, 09:14 PM

Only had a few hours to shoot some photos, i know middle of the day is the wrong time to shoot, but its all i had. some post PS editing. but it was fun, great beach weather in SOCAL. so i went driving... enjoy...

She looks great, but IMO you should remove the plate mount and get the holes filled in along with having your reflectors shaved off. Your bumper would look a lot cleaner without these.

patrick smith · 04-12-2015, 11:36 PM

I thought about that. I'm not a fan of front plates but who ever owned the car before me used big wood screws to mount the plate and its got big holes right through the bumper. ( hand slap to head ) So maybe at some point I'll have the bumper redone.

dozaiya · 04-13-2015, 07:16 AM

Clean ride! I love MR and carbon fiber combo! Here's the ironic part. I have a friend here in NC named Patrick and the both of you have MR E92 M3s! Mind is blown!

patrick smith · 04-13-2015, 11:27 AM

patrick smith · 04-13-2015, 09:21 PM

How do you Cali guys keep your cars sooooo clean with the drought restrictions??? Nice ride!!

1SerieStud · 04-17-2015, 03:20 PM

Lovely! I too have an MR m3...already have the OEM CF wing and mirrors caps, and I was debating on the front splitters. Your pictures sold me on getting them!

I don't know much about the rear diffuser as I just have the front lip but ModeCarbon is known for spot on fitment!!
