Modding is all about personalizing YOUR car. If that's your thing it's your thing. Have fun!

I totally agree!

To the OP, good luck with the rest of your mods.

you misspelled "brakes" in your sig lol

break = separate or cause to separate into pieces as a result of a blow, shock, or strain: "the rope broke with a loud snap".

Fugly M3 · 08-15-2012, 06:16 PM

are they doing your red brakes at the factory?

wow, i cant believe nobody caught that yet. fixed

i am having the brakes put on by dealer, even though i ordered with car i was told m performance can only be installed by dealer. It is $3000 for breaks and install but then it is handled for 6 years/100,000 miles, peace of mind. yea i am a huge superman and have been wanting to do this combo for a couple years so glad it can finally be done on a 4 door non M

Why does your message still say "breaks" and NOT "brakes"?

No biggie!

Can't wait to see your superman fly!!!

I included red M Performance brakes on my order for $2,295 and they will be installed at the VPC. My CA just added the wholesale price of the brakes to my already negotiated price of invoice + $895. So is your dealer charging you $3000 AND labor to install?

Fugly M3 · 08-16-2012, 12:45 AM

my original plan was to get a car in 2014 and do ED but i found somebody that wanted to buy my e90 now so it gave me a good excuse to buy now. and q4 it is impossible to get time off work for me. enjoy your ED and take lots of pics

I also have a Superman config, and I'm doing ED on the 31st. I'll post pics ASAP :-). Not sure I'll do your mod though, but it's definitely interesting and hilarious!

DrivenByE30 · 08-16-2012, 09:32 AM

Congrats OP on the superman config LOL
I guess you will get a better idea once JohnofCross gets his car in Germany....
