Thought I would post up a few pictures as things are slowy geting done to the 330. I brought the car last year totaly standard with the intention of not messing with it as its a nice example.

This is how it looked when I first brought it.

Begining of the year I brought a set of BMautosprt LM reps 19x8.5 allround from chris, this were in as new condition and was very happy with them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

(IMG:http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i191/stilo16v/bmw%20330ci/pics025.jpg)

A few months later I brought a set of Apex shox's and Eibach springs from Stan24v, though I want to go lower so I now have a set of JOM's waiting to go on.

(IMG:http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i191/stilo16v/bmw%20330ci/008.jpg)

This is how its looking as of last weekend, im still waiting for my Lamin-x yellow film to arrive for the fog lights as im going down the euro/US route

(IMG:http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i191/stilo16v/bmw%20330ci/039.jpg)

Future plans will include CS front splitters, ACS rep rear spoiler, Colour coded grills and a roof rack (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

Cheers guys (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The leather is very nice but a pain to keep clean!

I will post pictures up of the fog lights when I do them the weekend as they seem abit controversial, When all the mods are done hopefully it will all tie in together, we shall see about the rack as im trying to find one with the wind deflector.

Love all the suggestions - a roof rack looks great on a slammed car. It's a very deliberate look. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Looking sweet mate, sitting nice on those rims.

A friend of mine has a Audi S4 with a colour coded roof rack, it actually looks pretty good!

Have to admit im liking the route your going down. Even if most are roof rack haters i still think it could look cool, and its not like you are fitting a tow bar!

Just seen this thread!

YEA! Someone else with the naturebrown leather!
I really love it - black interior with the light brown leather is really unusual, looks so nice with black too!

Car looks awesome Adam, love the route you're taking with the mods.
Have just given mine a clean - photos in this forum (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

This is my to do list so fingers crossed it all comes together and looks good, if anything looks naff it can be just taken off.

My Lamin-X film arrived today so will be doing the fogs tomorrow and will post pictures of the results. Im also thinking of using red Lamin-X on the rear lights to get the all red look, just hope it dosent make the bottom half of the light too red?!

Thanks for all the possitive feedback (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) , just trying a different route, if it dosent work than at least I tried, though im struggling to find a decent looking rack.

As nice as the seats are ive gone to adjust the forward and back position (base of the seat) to find out it dosent work on the drivers side (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) though all the other movements work fine, anyone with any ideas?
