Alyse Jackson has been a BMW fan since the day she could drive. Between the body lines, the features offered, and of course the performance, she knew she had to have one of her own. The 2008 BMW 328i you see here was Jackson鈥檚 first ever project car, and she has since picked up an E36 as well!
Jackson鈥檚 original intentions were to keep things super simple. Maybe a set of wheels, some upgraded suspension, and some tasteful accents. Of course, we all know how that goes, and after starting to modify the BMW it was hard to stop. With high standards for fit and finish, she continued to push the envelope of her 328i, eventually fitting it with air suspension from Air Lift Performance, and a Hard Motorsports Leichtbau widebody kit, among other modifications.
鈥淚 just want everybody and anybody to know that no matter who you are, what you drive, what you do in life - that if you have dreams and goals for whatever type of build you want, to just go ahead and do it,鈥 she says. 鈥淔orget about if others may like it or find it appealing, because at the end of the day the only opinion that matters is your own when it comes to you and your build. Do what you like!鈥
