BMW M3 *Darth Maul* Project by MWDesign









Canadian tuner MWDesign have begun a tuning programme for the BMW M3 Coupe (E92) which they have codenamed Darth Maul, presumably from the Star Wars Episode One baddie. Currently the programme is in stage 1. For now only a few pieces of kit have been installed in Jerez Black, the colour of the exterior. For starters there is an Amuse Ericsson front bumper with custom orange highlights.
Carbon fiber side vents continue with the custom orange colour, as do the carbon fiber side mirrors. A rear diffuser made from carbon fiber rounds off the major exterior changes. The black 20-inch rims with orange-accented centre caps are wrapped in 245/30/20 front tyres and 285/25/20 rubber at the rear. Interior details are rare but we are told that Darth Maul comes with a Fox Red interior trim.
The BMW M3, of any generation, is undoubtedly one of the most tuned sports cars of our time. The current car was launched in 2007 with a 4.0-litre V8 engine replacing the old 3.2-litre straight six. Despite the 800cc gain the new engine is 15kg lighter. Maximum power was increased from 343hp (252kW) to 420hp (309kW). Stay tuned for stage 2 of Darth Maul.

We helped these guys get the word our there, after we posted the photos, at least 3-4 large publications took them over, Jalopnik included.

We tend to do this with smaller tuning shops, we help them get more exposure for their projects...never ask for anything in return

Thanks, I appreciate it.....we make some mistakes too sometimes, but we stand up, face them and apologize We're learning though every day and adapting to the current demands, we also like to give the blog a more personal feel so our readers are very close to each other....kinda like this forum.

In 2 weeks we will have a new design, absolutely amazing, user friendly and professional.
