Hamann Mods Complete

sgrade19 · 07-08-2008, 01:04 PM

So, I drove down to the Hamann shop again today to have my front end and rear diffuser installed. I left also getting a new set of Hamann wheels/tires. We all know what the before shots should look like, here are some after shots.

Couple more images.

I'm not exactly a huge fan of the front, but whats important is that you love it, enjoy...CONGRATS!!

RealSanaii · 07-08-2008, 01:14 PM

At first, I didn't like it with the LEDs but WOW!!

This look sick man! Congratz!!

Anyone notice how there's very little gap between the hood and bumper? It's definitely poor QC at BMW.

The space grey M3 next to you with the flag going down the side actually looks pretty nice. I dont think I would put that bumper on my car but it looks nice and flows well... overall I like the look!

The painted rear diffuser looks good!

JEllis · 07-08-2008, 01:16 PM

P.S. I see you chose to lower her? Probably due to the lower front end? She looks good without the drop anyway.

Thanks for being honest =) I have a buddy that decided against it, but I really love it and don't think the pictures do it justice. They certainly don't do the wheels justice. Very sharp looking IMHO.

Thats stock, I did not get it lowered. I think the new front end with the wheels may be giving that impression.

The grey one next to mine is the Hamann Thunder, they have a tuned up m5 V10 in that beast =)

NICE

SlammedR8 · 07-08-2008, 04:00 PM

I like the painted rear a lot too!
Not crazy about front, but its not too bad!

As for the rims, Im sorry to say, but they are gross!
both the size and the style!

Davinhci · 07-08-2008, 04:09 PM

looks good man

ILC32 · 07-08-2008, 05:18 PM

Looks are subjective, but the new bumper looks like it would limit airflow to the brakes.

IWC Doppel · 07-08-2008, 05:48 PM

Not sure, looks okay but probably prefer stock, sorry

+1

The wheels are nice, not for me, but still nice.

!Xoible · 07-08-2008, 05:58 PM

not too bad. ditch the wheels and do a drop. u need 20-22" wheels with all that bulky stuff in rear bumper/front bumper. (kidding about 22")

i have yet to see a package that actually looks nice and classy on the car. so far none

In my opinion, the only body mod that is needed for the new M3 is the rear diffuser. Forget an aftermarket rear spoiler, side-skirts, or front bumper splitters and such. All we need for the new M3 are the following:

1. Aftermarket Exhaust
2. Rear Diffuser
3. Window tint
4. Color-matched front reflectors
5. Blacked-out kidney grills
6. Suspension drop
7. Your choice of nice wheels/tires

DONE!

I dont agree about the tint... However, I am kinda against tint....

And I think front splitters are fine....

I dont really think you need a drop if you do a front splitter either...
