N0Chill's F30 Photoshoot Thread UPDATED 04/09/18 Easter Sunday

N0Chill 335i · 10-24-2017, 06:22 PM

New session at this warehouse by my job. I feel like my car looks so plain and boring... 😩😩😩

perryo91 · 10-24-2017, 06:32 PM

First of all, it doesn't look boring at all. Just very clean. You dont have crazy loud wheels or a crazy stance. Your color scheme is also black and white which in it self is not loud.

Couple of recommendations as I'm planning on doing these two mods in the future and my car looks very similar to yours:

Roof wrapped in gloss black?

LCI tails OR the white and black performance tails?

Calvin36 · 10-24-2017, 08:31 PM

Really good quality shots!.

7iM3less · 10-24-2017, 09:24 PM

Looks clean I love it. I would agree LCI tails would step it up. They're on my list to do as well.

Lolz, compared to my vision, it is boring to me. But I thank you for the compliment. I don't mind the OEM+ look right now. I'm Just going through mod withdrawal right now. I have parts just sitting and waiting to be installed. Roof will be painted gloss black, gonna smoke the tail lights to a cherry color. Also have side skirt extensions and CF and burnt titanium rear bumper fins to put on. Not to mention drilled and slotted rotors with M Sport rear calipers. Feeling a bit antsy...

Thank you kindly. I'll have to look into those, but they would be way down the road on my list of modifications.

TBN54 · 10-25-2017, 12:30 PM

Did you have trouble painting the front splitter gloss black?

GMV Auto · 10-25-2017, 01:36 PM

Love your setup sir. Such a clean car.

Damn! Those are alot of parts sitting around. I think the cf/burnt titanium rear bumper fins will definitely up the aggressiveness. I cant really picture how that looks in my head, but it sounds aggro. Same with the rear brakes.

Why did you decide to paint the roof rather than wrap? I know painting looks way better and will definitely last longer, however are you not hesitant about reversibility? Also cost, it'll most likely be more expensive because of the labor right?

My previous e92. The CF fins with titanium bolts are at the bottom of my bumper. I had my same homie make them for me for the F30.

I'm painting because our climate sucks in MD and wraps don't last. The hot to cold, cold to hot drastic changes almost weekly wreaks havoc on vinyl. Plus in this area it's only $50-$100 difference to have it done. Reversability isn't a concern for me. I have learned to do something right the 1st time with car mods or you will end spending double on the cheap stuff down the road.

Ah good to know! I'm glad I got some info from someone that's done both. It seems like everyone and their mother does wraps.

Especially that I'm in Miami and I'm sureeee the beating sun and humidty would have an effect on it.

*Knock on wood* No. Not in this car. A couple times in my previous e92.

My shop did a pretty good job with the prep, paint still looks great. Oddly enough, my factory paint on the bumper and hood show more signs of chips than the "cheapy" front spoiler.

N0Chill 335i · 04-02-2018, 09:46 AM

Haven't posted in here for some time. New pics...

Since I finally got a day off yesterday due to the Easter holiday, I decided to go do a couple quick impromptu shoots. Car was sent cleaned the Friday night before so it's a bit cloudy in areas, but the pics came out decent. I've only edited the test location shots so far. I'll edit and upload the main spot some time this week. I usually shoot with my 50mm 1.8g, o wanted to get some wide angle shots so I used my kit lens for these shots. I think they came out well for the most part.

N0Chill 335i · 04-09-2018, 12:55 PM

Second set of uploads from Easter Sunday sessions.

One last small set to upload later this week.
