The M4 one.

Seriously, this is like asking the man why he bought potatoes to make french fries when instead he could of bought them.

@OP conversion looks clean and it looks good.

Depends where you live. I run 20s for the last two years and not one bend and we do have very rough roads in Minneapolis, but not as bad as Chicago or say the east coast I have visited. Your statement is true just to a small degree, but not true for all places. The majority of places in the US have good enough roads for 20s and to be honest they ride a hell of a lot smoother than my stock 17s with the runflats. You have to have a quality wheel with a quality tire and make sure you run the right air pressure.

So the whole generalization that if you own 20s you will bend them and they ride like crap is just that...a false generalization.

maybe it wasnt the OP but i thought somone was doing this with an xdrive and i kinda understood that logic. if you like the looks of a m4 but want awd im cool with it, every car enthusiast has lost money on a car in their life its only fun =)

Yeah run flats are a nightmare and every chance I get I discard that stuff and get new rims n tires.

Chicago and the region here is rough in general. I even hit a pothole that crept up on me and bent my right front forged 19". But yeah like you said it's where you live. Florida or places like that I'm all for it.

Plus the advantage I've found with 20's vs 19's the tires are actually freakin cheaper 90% of the time for the 20" since they're way more common I guess. Another tip of the hat to run 20's if you can.

Yup yup I do agree happens all the time

I have to agree with FC4. Just buy an M4. It makes more financial sense and it is a better car. I don't understand modifications to this degree. If it was not available at the time of purchase, then live with what you have for a while or wait until it is available. I have to agree that I just don't get it.

[jayyp]

Why...?No...Especially the M4 side badge!!

[Wah]

How are you going to sell this car when you move on to the next car? are you going to put all the panels back on?

I think FC4 is right on point with most of his comments on most of these posts to tell you the truth. Bet lots feel the same way but won't write anything for fear of mods interupting.

anyway car looks good, m4 badging has to go, I don't understand this build financially or logically but to each his own. At the end of the day whatever makes op happy is his business right?

[remmib]

Sweet F32, and stunning pics.

[hawaiianeze]

Looks awesome! Don't know everyone is bagging on him so much : this is the same way creaminz e90 originally started kinda. OEM conversion is clean and can be done at a decent price if you can source the parts. I'm sure we will see a rear widebody in the future... sure he won't have a M4 but he will have tunes and turbo upgrades that will make the car that much more fun to drive. He's gotten to drive the car for a solid year now enjoyed it, and will probably to able to sell the entire conversion for close to what he paid for at the end of the day. Haters gonna hate

[Rich2k1]

Hey guys thanks for the good and bad comments lol .So here is the deal, I had an opportunity to get all these parts from a buddy at almost no cost whatsoever. I will post the IPE exhaust video as that does make the car sound like a beast. I had originally done a front end change and was about to put that on before SEMA and these parts happen to fall into my lap and well the rest is history. As for the rear I wasn't able to change the bumper as the new IPE exhaust would not fit.

The vents will be changed just have not done it yet.. new pics and video soon with new wheels..

[Bimmer Barney]

I'll never be a fan of stanced cars because it's form over function, but otherwise this looks great. Looks OEM fit and finish. Nice work.

[cjack]

Awesome photos. Well done.

[ORIGIN M.]

Wild.

Slammed is right!

[JTO24]

In the e9x era, m3 conversions made a *tiny* bit more sense if you were a fan of the N54/55 and wanted to build around that (Like Creaminz). This, to me, makes no sense as both are FI inline 6's; especially if the f32 isn't x-drive.

Not to nitpick but the sideskirt to rear quarter doesn't really line up well either. Sorry, OP. I like creativity and modding but I'm with others and don't understand the logic here.

Pictures look good though, and the car looks clean at least.

[Epili]

I dont understand all these members who say "do this or do that". To each his own and its not your money hes spending. I don't think bimmerforum was made so bmw owners can have a stage to bash one another.

Is there any logic whatsoever to buying a luxury car when a Hyundai or Toyota or Kia would accomplish the same function??? This is a hobby and passion for some people so there is no logic behind it other than it makes them happy. Lets face it, there is nothing logical to car ownership.

You do make a point and I agree. If he's modding for the sake of modding then yes, it's his money and he can do as he pleases I just don't agree with the choices he made in his modifications and that's ok, too.

[330xtrai]

it looks amazing. idk why everyone is bagging on him. just because someone doesn't have the same mindset as you why get all angry. its his not your if you like it say you like it if not say you don't but don't say he's stupid and why bit get an m its not like he putting an m badge on his car.

What I been saying all along his money his choices.

I and most of us on here would prefer to never go this route. I want an F80 M3 and nothing more. I want the real thing.
