Not yet, still set on H&R OE sports which are on backorder everywhere I've recently checked. I may buy a used set locally if they're the right type.

The Mtech spoiler was acquired from a German fellow. It set me back about $200 including shipping. They're relatively hard to come by. However, I'll keep my eyes peeled for ya :)

As for the plate filler, they pop up on ebay every now and then. That's where I found mine. If that doesn't work out, you could always get one at http://www.abrahamsmotorsport.com

Credit goes to a buddy who took these using my camera. Enjoy :)

Post by: silverblades181 on July 24, 2006, 12:48:55 PM

cool, how do you like it? got a sound clip? I'm pretty interested in getting it though I'm having a hard time justifying the very high price.

Title: Europspec
Post by: Eurospec on July 24, 2006, 06:04:05 PM

Overall it's nice. Although it can get loud at times. I don't have a clip however, I'll try to get one.  

I've been told by a fellow member that this particular exhaust is NLA and almost impossible to find new. Keep your eyes peeled for one on the used market.

That stance is perfect!!!   What H&R springs do you have??  

I am in love with those wheels...  what are they??  Where did you find them?  How much are they, etc...   They look sick.  :cool:

Some euro-elipsoids and you'll be rockin' the most bad ass 318iS, I've ever seen.  :D

OE Sport Springs p/n 50404.55 Personally, I'd have a bigger smile on my face if the front was slightly lower. I may opt for the true sports in the future.

BCW 15x7.5" wheels, imported from the motherland. Surprisingly, they get mixed reviews. I love 'em which matters. Has that BBS 3 piece look which I always drool over. I'll be sporting these until I can afford some RS'

So you are running the H&R OE's??  I presume you are also running Bilstien HD's.  They look nearly as low as my car on Vogtland Sports.  I have the same "raised up" look on the front end, which I don't like.  I think these springs were designed for a 325, which has more weight in the front and naturally would compress the spring more.

The springs to look at are the ones Febi has on his iS.  He has a special code H&R Sport spring that was designed for the M10 318i.  That has about the same weight F to R as our 318iS, and the stance looks great!  If you want to go stiffer, H&R Race looks good and is even a bit lower.  :cool:

I've never seen those wheels before...  Where did you get them, and how much were they?  

I don't see them on thier website, so maybe it's not a current line.  See link below.

your car is so clean! just curious, but do you not like the "is" front spoiler? i think your car will look so sick if you put an "is" front spiler on your car, just my 2 cents

you should cut your rear license plate and make it flush with the bottom of the plate holder. I did it and was very happy with it, even though it took longer than it should have... just make sure you don't cut too much. Car is looking very good! And if you ever decide to part with your exhaust let me know!

Title: Europspec
Post by: Eurospec on May 25, 2007, 11:22:22 PM

Hmmm, I may consider this. What did you use to cut it? Thanks for the suggestion.

I cut mine with tin snips after I made a card board templte.  I also drilled the tag holes about 8mm lower.  Additionally I put a black metal frame arounf the tag.  Had to cut that too.  Car looks amazing.  Is that exhaust still in stock?
