F31 335xd Msport plus black mod options?

I have some money burning a hole in my pocket.

I have done the ACS springs.
I'm interested in a few over OEM type mods.
The performance body kit bits are appealing but I am not sure they will work on a black car?
Has anyone got any images of cars with BMW rear diffusers single or twin pipes, side skirts or any think else on a black car especially the touring?
I don't think I want the front splitter its going to be too low.
Google hasn't done much to to help so far.
Also thinking wheel spacers 12mm front 15mm rear?

Id also want to get the ACS tuning box but I am loathe to spend 2.5k when a remap is 700ish. But I really need to protect my warranty.

So what do people think.

Rybrook are doing 20% off and free fitting on M Performance stuff for Black Friday. Lloyd at Warwick is the guy you need to speak to! There's another thread on the forum for this.

I have the front splitter on mines and want to get the ACS Springs. Not sure if the car will be too low then. Just concerned about going on and off driveways and humps etc...

Cheers

I am liking the rear spoiler thingy.
Beside the little m sport badge on the skirts they dont seem to add much?
I think my heart is set on twin tail pipes.........

Sapphire Black m performance bits on a black f31.
Splitter height is not a major issue. You have to go slowly over speed bumps and ramps and you will scrape the underside occasionally, but its not a big deal as you can't see them

Hi,

Some pics added on my BSM 335d F31. First mod was ACS springs, these are the earlier ones with less drop at the front. Next was Superchips remap, just do it IMO. This was followed by wrapping the chrome grilles in black, front splitter and side splitters. Finally then added 340i style twin pipes and back box delete.

Original wheels were 19" 442's, swapped to polished 624M's and now on genuine 437M's with MP4S tyres

I think that front is too low for me and where I have to drive but it does look nice there though. Are your skirts same as those above. The scallops at teh rear look less pronounced. Maybe it the black in teh photos but you can lose detail of shapes with black but clean in good light they do look the dogs danglies.
I think I also prefer the side skirts with the M perf decals on other have posted.

I do like the rear. How much louder is is without the back box? Is it a nice loud or a bit too much dumper truckesque? I don't want a very loud car - wolf in sheep clothing is my preference (I know I like decals). I do need it to be quiet especially at lower normal revs round town don't mind a nice sound when its being pushed.

Hello love the exhaust.

I think the side splitters are the same, they fit to the underside of the sill moulding so the scallops are the same. I have the m performance stickers but didn’t fit them.

The exhaust isn’t noisy apart from on full throttle when you can hear the exhaust gases flowing through the system and that gives a rushing sound. At lowercrevs you just get a slightly deeper sound than standard. If you fit a modified 340 rear box it will sound the same as standard I.e. as good as silent
