do you get this bumper when you choose the option Front splitter or you chose some option to get this kind of bumper

you car looks great
Thanks Boss2k! Love the car. I've seen a few posts that EB is unavailable right now. Not sure if real or not. Best bet is build it on the web and get the EB option when you go to the dealer to order the car.

I ordered the "front splitter black" from the BMW website. It was an option for the M-Sport 335i. The splitter, spoiler, decals, grills, MPPK and MPE were all port installed.

Is MPE the performance exhaust and MPPK the performance power kit ? how much hp /torque gain you get from Power kit?

Yup on both. Stock 335i I think BMW says is 300/300 HP/TQ. With the MPPK and MPE it's supposed to be 335/317 HP/TQ for the 6MT. What's the real numbers? Don't really know and it's not all that important to me. If I wanted the 425HP M3 as my daily driver I would have gotten it, but here in the Northeast, I'm not too keen on trashing an M3 with all the salt, gravel (NJ towns don't sand, they throw down gravel) and potholes. I dropped off my '13 F30 335 (no MPPK but had MPE) and an hour later drove out with the new '15 F30. A noticeable difference and a bigger smile!

Did you install MPPK and MPE when you ordered/bought the car or later .. the reason i ask is if it was later do you experience the increase power. I had the power kit installed on my e92 335 later after i bought and noticed the increased acceleration for first few days and thereafter it was same as before.

When you try to build the car do not get the option of MPPK and MPE as options. do i need to get it later then?

Yes, picked up the car new with everything installed by the factory or port. Since I dropped off a car without the MPPK and picked up essentially the same car but with the MPPK, there was a noticeable difference. Now that I've had the car for a month, the watermark is established and now I'm used to it moving a bit faster.

I don't believe the BMW site has the options for the MPPK and MPE, but when I went to my CA, I told her what I wanted and she wrote up the order. Two days later she faxed me the factory PO (had all options including port installed) for me to sign.

Good luck with the upcoming new car!

thanks for your valuable responses, is the MPE really good and noise is deeper on acceleration and better than a custom exhaust

I am waiting on the lease deals for M3 and if its expensive will work on 335. Currently drive a S4 and its great and need to see how different F30 will be than S4 . My current lease is up in december and need to decide by summer

The MPE sounds great (but you MUST do the golf-tee mod.....search the F30post for that)! Add it to the MPPK and with the 6MT I get great exhaust burbles when downshifting and backing off the exhaust and the sweet note of the engine when crusing. I've had it on my last 2 335's. Look in the exhaust posts and you will see/hear a lot of aftermarket exhausts that are really sweet and better sounding than the BMW MPE. Since I lease a new car every 2/3 years, I stick with the BMW parts. Definitely test-drive a 335i and/or an M3. The S4 is a beautiful looking car. I prefer RWD so that takes Audi out from the start. My son drives an A6 and loves the car. Good luck with your shopping! It will be a lot of fun.
