330i ZHP redone!!

[Beemer Dreamer]

Hey gang, I took my photo editing software and manipulated the ZHP just a little and it kinda looks like the new E90 for 06. Or at least it sure gives it a cleaner look. I just took the side & front black molding off. The car looks more modern if that makes any sense. What do you think? If this image doen't post can someone help?

Thanks

Here's the picture without the black on the front

I like it with the front on. I love the ZHP package, it is totaly awesome cept i wouldn't want to give up the lumbar support in the premium package. That is the only thing holding me from getting one. I'm still undecided whither or not to either wait for the E90 or purchase a 330i now.

cool, this was something i was debating, to paint the front trim or not. I like it with the front trim. seems to plain trim color matched.

I definite will get the sides done.

FYI, a beemer is a BMW motorcyle, a bimmer is a BMW car.

Good call. When I was in 12th grade (a couple years ago), my History teacher was talking about history and the automotive industry and he stated "bimmers" in his sentence, referring to BMW cars and everybody started laughing and I was like, "stfu it IS bimmer...Beamer means BMW motorcycle".

Great job! I also think it looks very nice without the trim in the front.

 

[MrElussive]

Yeah, it actually makes the front look closer to an M3, which is pretty hot.

So why do you think they put the trim on the car? They could just use a molded bumper in a one-step process and eliminate the side molding. This would save some money for sure.

The trim is to protect the car from all the silly people at the grocery store who swing the doors of their huge-ass SUV's just a foot too wide and thus having it slam into your car. It's BMW's version of Saturn's "dent-resistant doors, etc."

If you haven't noticed the Coupes have body colored trim. Why they didn't do it for the Sedans is beyond me. I too like the cleaner Newer look. If you saw the thread about the new 3 series coiming in 06 also known as the E90, the body style clean too. Has the mini 5 look.
