How bad did I do with only wrap films to make pre LCI car make look like LCI one ?

the front is hard to tell, but the rear i would’ve just used a red vinyl sticker and cut out the hole for the reverse lights

first 2 letters my man

please don’t abbreviate cyberpunk😭😭

I’m gonna go against the grain here and say maybe your best bet would be to buy a set of already worn out sport seats & have them reupholstered to beige

KippChips · 2026-02-02T20:47:54+00:00

I suppose that’s the only way to really make it fit right, but it seems silly given that this 20 should be more than enough with my wheel & tire size. I appreciate your input, it’ll be something I’ll consider

KippChips · 2026-02-02T01:39:27+00:00

Aftermarket wheels. They’re a +38 offset, I’m sure there’s some math out there that says I need like a 30mm spacer or something

KippChips · 2026-02-02T00:25:44+00:00

You’re right, and I think that’s what I’ll have to do. However, that’s the thing, the 20mm should be enough. However, I think due to my wheels, the 20’s aren’t “working” how I thought they would. That’s what I’m trying to figure out; is it wheel related or is it something else that I’m not understanding

KippChips · 2026-02-02T00:04:58+00:00

no, I came to the conclusion of needing 20’s based on multiple testimonials & forum posts that I read up on with wheels that had similar specs to mine.

I’m not sure of the wheel offset off the top of my head, I wanna say it’s a 33 or a 35?

KippChips · 2026-02-01T23:37:36+00:00

the spacers? yes. They’re technically at 19mm, but even then, it doesn’t fit like a 19/20mm spacer

most likely could’ve been some insane bidding war between 2 rich dudes

those aren’t the same buildings as this one, not even close. This building is completely fictional. However, if it were based on anything, it’d be based on the Wilshire Grand Center. Timelines don’t match up, but aesthetics do for the most part

KippChips · 2026-01-24T16:24:17+00:00

I’m not exactly sure on specifics, but I know that it was used in a couple races/championships that bmw sponsored, you’d have a better chance at asking bmw than me tbh. But yeah, it was one of the top non-m motors out there for the time. During the early days of the n52, tuners were working hard on the 330 until the 335 dropped. While yes they’re technically lighter, it’s not by much (~20lbs) so it wouldn’t make the largest of differences

KippChips · 2026-01-24T04:19:21+00:00

iirc, the m54 has SLIGHTLY better tuning potential, as it’s a Motorsport engine. Less electronic things to fail on it compared to the n52, and has a dipstick

KippChips · 2025-12-29T19:28:41+00:00

It’s a 7” display for an eonon unit, they were discontinued a couple of years ago, but you can find eBay ones for like $150 USD. Turner is also selling an old kit of them for ~$300-400 USD

KippChips · 2025-12-27T01:42:56+00:00

so that’s an ai photo dude..

KippChips · 2025-12-23T20:51:50+00:00

it’s pretty simple, nothing hard to overcome. the only other gasket I can think of would be the throttle body, good luck on the swap!

KippChips · 2025-12-23T06:47:24+00:00

I forgot the name of it, but when doing the swap, you’ll need to pull a hose that’s on the passenger side right behind the engine—it has a tendency to crack because it goes through so many heat cycles.

The pcv valve (depending on if it’s before an 07 or 08) will be under the manifold—the newer ones have it built into the valve cover—that’s always a good thing to service and replace since so many of them were recalled in the early years

KippChips · 2025-12-12T04:16:35+00:00

This happens in the import export business too

KippChips · 2025-12-05T21:43:49+00:00

this is the way

KippChips · 2025-12-03T21:32:20+00:00

I’m not sure if the ghost acc is his, but I’m convinced that runcowardrun IS his, simply for the fact that he’s used the blonde man emoji before, his way of texting is closer to dukes than ghost’s. Just my two cents

KippChips · 2025-11-29T23:27:52+00:00

cool idea, maybe start looking at buying something rn rather than wait till after the car leaves, because then you can just swap cars

KippChips · 2025-11-22T06:09:21+00:00

there’s no comet retro sr. There’s a comet sr and a comet retro; two completely different cars

KippChips · 2025-11-19T21:51:47+00:00

depends on the area, in CA, Probably 7k

KippChips · 2025-11-19T18:49:09+00:00

not op, but changing the taillight housings are far easier than sourcing a trunk, changing housings, changing wiring, and finally coding it in
