BMW M3 E92 Halloween Edition Wrapped in Matte Orange Vinyl

The good thing with vinyl wraps is that in the event that you don't like the end-result or you get quickly bored of the new color scheme, you can always change back to the one you had before. This E92 BMW M3 coupe, which belongs to an m3post forum member who goes by the alias 'MyM3>UrCar', has been covered in a matte orange vinyl wrap with contrasting black accents and matching 20-inch forged alloy wheels.

Other mods include CSL-style trunk with an integrated spoiler and a front apron from Hamann, both of which are finished in black.

So, what do you think about the two-tone custom made bimmer; should the driver keep it as it is, change some particular details or simply go back to stock form? Have your say in the comment section below.

Kneibler Autotechnik's Supercharged BMW M3 Coupe gets 459 HP

Few things are better in life than the previous-generation BMW M3 E46, one of the most complete Ms ever built. Nevertheless, many tuners such as Kneibler Autotechnik believe that there's plenty of room for improvements. The German tuning house has come out with a comprehensive package of powertrain, chassis and body modifications. The company has boosted the M3's 3.2-liter straight-six performance with a supercharger, intercooler and ECU upgrade.

These changes result to a total output of 456 horsepower and 498Nm (367 lb-ft), up from 343 horsepower and 365Nm. But there's a price for the upgrade -literally: the performance kit costs a hefty €13,000 while the sports muffler will cost you another €1,350.

Other available performance modifications include a new braking system with 6-piston calipers at the front (€3,852) and 4-piston calipers at the back (€3,103), KW-Sport coilover kit (€1,749) and stabilizers (€419) plus 20-inch alloy wheels from Oxigin wrapped in 255/30 Hankook tyres up front and 305/25 at the rear (€2,723).

We wouldn't suggest it from a style point of view, but Kneibler Autotechnik also offers an LSD scissor door conversion for €1,990.

If you do you the math, the total price of the package (without the doors) comes out to a more than hefty €26,196 or about $37,500 at today's exchange rates.

Mature Tuning: IND's BMW M3 Coupe E92 Dakar Yellow Project

Not really fans of extreme mods here at Carscoop preferring a more mature approach when it comes to tuning. That's why we like IDN's latest take on the BMW M3 Coupe with the Dakar Yellow project. The subtly modded M3 comes with selected black accessories that includes 18-inch HRE alloy wheels shod in 275/35 R18 Nitto rubber all around and a Vorsteiner front lip spoiler and rear diffuser, which seem to work pretty well with the Dakar Yellow paint job.

Our only objection in terms of styling concerns the smoked tail lights but overall, the E92 looks the part and stands out without being obnoxious. IDN's M3 finished project car also features a KW suspension kit and custom made Brembo brakes.

PARTS

• Brembo 365×34mm / 345×28mm with custom Race Grey finish and Race Brembo font

BMW M3 E92 with Racing Dynamics Mods Dressed in Flat Black

Our first impression upon looking at these pictures of the BMW M3 coupe dressed in a Racing Dynamics bodykit and finished in a flat black was 'nice'. But that was before we checked out the same car with its factory Jerez Black metallic paintjob (see pics after the jump). Our personal take is that it looked better before but needless to say, when it comes to aesthetics, everyone has their own preferences.

The modded M3 E92 was featured on the M3Post forums by its owner that goes by the alias 'Labelexec'. We don't know many other details on the project car other than it was created by FBLSport in cooperation with RDSport aka, Racing Dynamics.
