Sad's E90 320i

Been lurking in the backgrounds for almost 2 years so I thought about time I got round to doing my own thread!

Cars are my passion but my history hasn't been very impressive due to wasting my money on eBay on unnecessary stuff!

First car was a share with my mum 99' Megane 1.6 Auto with was uglier but quicker than all my friends 1.2 and 1.4 clio's and golf's.
Then came my Megane 1.5dci which I owned for 7 years and spent ALOT of money into but loved it! Brought it standard and one thing after the next became a very good replica of the 225 Sport and featured at many shows.

In the meantime of owning the Megane, I had at my disposal my inlaws X5 3.0d and my mates E92 M3, so I guess destined to own a BMW of my own.

After selling the Megane went and researched for a while and got myself a E90 320i M Sport at a cheap price at the time. As I was sharing with the wife due to cycling to work, opted for the 320i rather than the 330/335i as I just knew it would be too fast for her lol

So brought the car, next week drove to M style and changed the headlight to Depo ones with angels as I beleive this is a MUST on every BMW. Had them for 3 months and after numerous visits to M Sytle due the lights of the rings falling out, they resupplied another set with white rings but also brows.

Then ordered off eBay the K&N cone air filter and front spliters which I got professionally sprayed and I applied some tiger seal and got stuck down. A little while later roaming through eBay noticed a seller using my megane's front as a main image selling cupra r style front splitter, after threatening them with legal action they gave me the lip spoiler for the E90 for free!
Wanted all red rear lamp but without converting to LCI and at the time couldnt find a decent aftermarket one so brought the film pre cut and covered the reverse lights and added ice white LED bulbs for reversing.

Had a quiet spot as the rear diff went and had no choice but to bite the bullet for a reconned one at £800 after buying 2 second hand ones which didnt fit due to poor advice from mechanics.

More recently aquired some OEM front grills off here from James as I brought just the top parts off BMW, had some spare time at work so gave it a go for the first time and sprayed them myself!
