Who says a E93 can't look good with the top up??

Just detailed the car so wanted to get a few shots before it got dirty again. I am very happy with the appearance of the car now with a few minor exterior mods. My goal was to keep the car looking as stock as possible but modding small things that should have came this way stock. (Reflectors, black grills, blacked out chrome trim, JL motoring CF spoiler)

It's harder than I thought to capture the Mineral White, but I hope I can sway some folks to getting it. I had alpine on my last 335i and liked it but MW is hands down much nicer. In the daytime it looks pretty much like a AW but at night it has this wonderful glow that AW doesn't have. It also hides dirt a lot better than AW!

Honestly, I was in a rush to take these before the sun set so I forgot to take pics of it with the top down. But I think the car still looks pretty good with the top up. Anyway, let me know what you guys think, thanks!

Thanks! It's JL motoring CF spoiler for e93. I hated how the e93 rear looked so empty so I wanted something a little more aggressive than a e92 lip spoiler.

With the spoiler the car looks loaded.

Verts look great! I love how the long roof slope mimics the long hood.

Looks great! That front plate is fugly though, ruins the front end. I've lived in NJ forever (front plate required) and never mounted one on any vehicle I've had and never was hassled........lucky I guess?

Thank you for the kind words everyone! I agree the front plate sucks but it's better than getting a ticket…I got one the day before my tow hook plate holder came in the mail…

Camera and lens is Canon 5D Mark II and EF 100mm f/2.8L IS Macro, all shot wide open. Wish I had a 135L for this but the 100L is the sharpest lens I own and it's fantastic for car shots, much better than my 35L (which I use for more than 1 car).
