Edd83 Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Yesterday i picked up this 2003 330d Sport and i'm really pleased with it to say the least. I didn't have to travel far for it either, only 19 miles from my house. I've already started fitting my Eonon unit along with a few other mods, pleanty more to come. Here she is anyway... Hope you like, will add more photos as I progress with it Edited June 29, 2013 by Edd83 Rich_D, jut, CharlE46 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickzsingh Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 (edited) Very nice, are you going to keep the alloys or will you be changing them? I would remove the 330d badge! Edited March 18, 2013 by rickzsingh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edd83 Posted March 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Very nice, are you going to keep the alloys or will you be changing them? I would remove the 330d badge! I'm still undecided. The wheels are ok, but i think i would prefer some MV1's or MV2's or failing that, some 19" CSL style alloys Blair and Ryan330c 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich_D Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Not overly keen on the wheels, they are ok, but I'd be looking to replace them personally Looks tidy though, get the inner boot lights replaced, makes a massive difference visually, done this on both of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be selling wheels in due course and will be buying something more BMW specific The Eurocarparts items are a near perfect match and if you use one of the many discount codes they are cheap as chips. Just makes the back end look so much fresher without the knackered old inners. Wheels are not a top priority, but would look better on something different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg320d Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Looks really nice mate. Maybe just have the wheels done in silver or something? What mods have you got planned? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberduckzilla Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Lovely looking loon mate! as suggested before would swap the wheels with something with abit more dish or concave... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooge Posted March 18, 2013 Report Share Posted March 18, 2013 Nice one bud, looks nice! I had a look at a silver loon before I went for the coupe and was very tempted. I *may* be selling some MV2's next month if you are interested too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edd83 Posted March 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2013 Cheers for all the comments, Looks really nice mate. Maybe just have the wheels done in silver or something? What mods have you got planned? Plans so far are... Fit MV1's or MV2's, Decat Pipe, Remap, Suspension, Xenons and a few other little touches Wheels arent so bad, nice to see something different I would lose the tints personally Swirl flaps been done ? (If applicable) Whereabouts in Essex you based dude ? No Swirl Flaps luckily! Live in Saffron Walden mate, near Stansted Airport How wide are your rears, may trade MV1's. nice car though. interior almost identical to mine! Not to sure, will be taking the wheels off at one point so will find out. In regards to tyre size though, it has 245's on the rear, and 225's on the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edd83 Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Right, well its been a few weeks since i bought this so thought i would update with things i've done since buying it. First job i did was remove, strip and clean the rear inner tail lights... Before... After... Then fitted my Eonon Unit... Next up was the wheels. Not really to my taste so opted for some MV1's as replacements... Shot with the aftermarkets... And how it currently sits with the MV1's... Needless to say, the wheels really do make a difference and really happy with the look. Apart from that, its just had a recent oil service and i'm ordering 40mm lowering springs next week. After that i will look into a remap. Will update when new suspension is fitted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
