Hey all! I've been lurking the forums for about a month now so I'd figure I'd post up my M. This is my first ever euro car, not a bad start for a 20 year old kid eh? got it with 71k on the clock exactly a month ago and it now has just over 75k but is suffering from the dreaded smg issues. :crying

Haven't done much with it yet besides add the replica vorsteiner front lip and rear diffuser, muffler delete with some ebay tips, removed the charcoal filters, red halo lights, emblem overlays, and frosted reflector overlays.. Planning on getting an intake of some sort after I fix the smg issue... I'm thinking RPI scoops with the AFE intakes, from what I've read that'll work well. Also looking around for the SMG tune and ECU tunes, also looking for the right specifications for aftermarket wheels to fill out the wheels wells and have them sit more flush.. haven't had too much luck there, but I'm sure I'll find something in the forums! Anyway, here are the pictures. :)

First day I had her.

I am very open to suggestions and constructive criticism!

Looks good. I like the front lip. It amazing to see how it changed the look of the car from when you first got it.

Thanks guys! Yeah the lip helped the front end a lot I think! And the red angels eyes, I just got some cheap eBay leds and threw em in. I have the Trinity autosport white ones if I ever get bothered by the local police.

I like the black kidney grills. Mine are still chrome and I'm looking to change to same as yours. The cf front spoiler looks good but still hard to see details of it in ur pix. Everything you've already done I want to do to mine too. Including a rear window spoiler. BTW I'm in Idaho.
