Alpine White F10 M Sport Auto - Updates Post #67 - New Pictures Post #76

[JTDi]

Picked this beautiful big lady up last night

Late 2011, 39k Miles, Alpine White(3) with Full Black Heated Leather, Sat Nav, BT Audio and all the usual toys, F&R PDC etc, 19" Wheels.. Full JKC Coleraine Service History etc.

It has the 8-Speed Automatic Gearbox, which is absolutely awesome

Plans are:

Gloss Black Grills *Done*
Gloss Black Splitter
535 Dual-Exit Exhaust & Gloss Black Diffuser *Done*
BMW Performance Lip Spoiler
BC Racing Coilovers (Height & Dampening Adjustable) *Done*
20" Wheels *Done*
Remap - Any suggestions on who to use

I have the Grills already, Splitter is en-route, Exhaust and Diffuser will be here and fitted on Thursday, Coilovers are due on Tuesday and also to be fitted on Thursday, Wheels are ordered (thanks to @alloyboy for the help ).

Will get the grills, splitter, and spoiler fitted in the one go, probably after the wheels / coilovers / exhaust is done

This is the only picture I have for now, the usual outside of the shop picture lol:

C&C Welcome ​

You dont hang about ... should look great.

 

[NickR]

I love these, enjoy!

i change my boxers less often

Love these, we have a 2015 car exactly the same as this with the MSport plus pack and another one ordered. Brilliant cars.
They go very very well for having a 520d badge.

 

[Carson]

That looks well. Should look even better after the mods.

 

[PAULW]

Time to subscribe to a thread. I think it looks good already, so I can only imagine with mods it'll look cracking! Enjoy

Indeed they do, had a play with one last week and I was really suprised how it went. Boy was about 50 odd too which made me lol.

Lovely car, should look great with the planned mods this and an M3 makes for a very tidy driveway. Nice

 

[k20_chunky]

Lovely car these, few subtle touches and they look deadly

 

[richiemucker]

Brilliant cars, Oul boy is on his second. Always deals with JKC and Richard Smyth.

 

[JTDi]

Thanks everyone!

I know I move pretty quickly lol but I'm an impatient git!

@alloyboy just informed me that my wheels have arrived... 20" with 9" Front 11" Rears

Splitter also arrived today, so its all looking good!

 

[AlpineF30]

Awesome. All the best with it mods sound good. Alpine white is a great colour

Jimbob you are bonkers! When's it for sale? Lol

But in all fairness it's a nice car, I'm really liking these newer bmw's.

 

[RevT]

Just saw the wheels that are going on it, should look real well, even though I'm not a massive fan of white. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

Yeah I just saw the picture uploaded lol, cant wait to get the ball rolling.

 

[pobmk4]

If I could get time away from here I'd love to, I'll maybe get over at the start of the week between jobs. lol

 

[JTDi]

Grills are here, splitter is away to get painted gloss black, coilovers are here on Tuesday and to be fitted on Thursday with the 535 exhaust and diffuser, will get the splitter and grills fitted on Thursday also, then Thursday evening I'll pop down and get the wheels fitted. BMW Performance Spoiler is also en-route and will get painted and fitted, then it'll be in for a full paint enhancement / protection

 

[JTDi]

A little shot of one of the wheels:

 

[sean2009]

lovely f10.. loven the wheels get them on quick.. subscribed

 

[Ben]

I would go gloss grey instead of gloss black, but either way that's stunning.

 

[Jason]

Nice car, will be looking one for the end of summer, cant decide on Alpine white or sophistio grey, or perhaps an e350 amg sport!

 

[Lappintyre]

Very nice, looking forward to those wheels fitted!

 

[JTDi]

Thanks everyone!

9" Front and 11" rear meant opting for a 235/35/20 and 285/30/20 tyre. They're now fitted, and just waiting for the Coilovers etc to be fitted on Thursday, then the wheels will be going straight on

Literally like a child on Christmas Eve, Thursday can't come quick enough!

On another note, after having driven this for a few days now, I still can't believe how well these shift for being such a big car and only a 2.0 lump. It's brilliant! And more than in love with the gearbox!!

wheels look good.
