SiiRBrooklyn's Progress

Decided to do a thread on my progress.. got inspired by other's on here. Slowly but surely you'll see the car coming together.

2012 CBP Non-Tech A/T

When i first got the car 3/23/14







First mod Lamin-X overlays 3/29/14





Put these on. The PIAA fogs made the lights darker and brighter. 4/5/14



The bro helping me out. BTW i didn't take off the bumper to install these.





Gotta see if i got any interior pics of LEDS...



Got 20% Panaflex Ceramic tints allround 4/18/14






Still missing afew more pictures will post them up within' the week or sooner.

Do you know if it's possible to get the fog light covers off without removing the bumper?

I think you might have to take off the bumper.

Installed the rear window spoiler on saturday. Bought it on ebay for $86 shipped and painted my color code. Seller was bmwoemshop. Fitment was ok... had a slight gap on my right side but no one could tell.

Also, good thing your license plate doesn't have another K in it...

I agree, if keeping stockies on, spacers are simple and will improve the look of your car even more

Debadge looks real good. I don't mind the emblems personally, so it's a tough choice. Both look good IMO.
