Fair enough, but to me good things still come in small packages!

Here are the updated pictures of the M3 with the new lowering springs. Now to give you a fair comparison of the lowering effect ,
I have first put the updated images and then put up images from this thread when the car was on normal springs .
Decide for your self the difference and let me know how it looks !

The ride quality is exactly the same as stock , which means , that the ride is not harsh at all now.
Also , the springs take about a week or so to settle to their normal level ,
so expect this car to lower a tad more after a week.
Bonus picture of the LP that never got uploaded by me in the first attempt!

PS - New wheels and rims coming up next week!

I think the front looks fine, but I don't really like the look of the rear being so low, I prefer it a little higher. By the way, have you tinted your windows or is it just the lighting?

Actually the rear wheel well has sufficient space . Got it checked today at the dealership and they verified it.
And no , no tinting at all. May be the flash had the effect.

why does it look as if your M3 is running serious neg camber?

ecksreturns · 24th May 2009, 13:25

Probably the wheel angel bro.

The Car looks HOT Karan and with the new Bigger Rims and Tires it will look even Hotter. Congrats. Enjoy the car. The E92 M3 is one of my all time favourite cars!!

is it compulsory to put number "0001" ?
is it illegal to put a single digit on the licence plate ?

Yes , it is illegal to put a single digit number if the number was not purchased during its original series run.

IIRC single digit number 1 belongs to the Raj Bhawan's for the Governor's cars.
