DavidRbibo can you PLEASE post a video of the 435i muffler with the resonator delete, or describe if there was a difference between having and not having one with the 435i conversion? I have the 435i muffler and want a little more out of it, will the resonator delete help or did you do it when you the did the whole conversion (meaning you have no idea how different it would sound, lol)

Very interesting with the light tint.

Sorry it isn't letting me post a pic from my phone so I will do so when I get home.

Sure, i will try my best to post a video. I got the resonator delete about 4 months after I installed the muffler. I definitely notice a difference when it's a cold start and when I'm idling in general. There are a few more crackles and burbles when letting off the throttle and when shifting but it's not a lot louder, it just sounds better and deeper. Got it done for $40 and I think it was completely worth the money. You should give it a go. Hope that helps

Definitely does, thank you. It shouldnt make it any louder because its not restrictive but changing the sound makes sense.

I had a resonator delete with my MPE on my old car and it made it crackle and pop a lot more. I think I'll go with it on this car too.

Thank you!!

Very nice! Do you have the DHP/adaptive suspension? Any rubbing with those spacers?

Thanks! I don't have adaptive suspension and for the 24 hours that i've had the spacers, no rubbing.

f32mineral · 02-11-2015, 02:55 PM

They look like the perfect size, definitely waiting patiently for more pictures.

DG20 · 02-11-2015, 06:56 PM

Here are some more unedited pics right after a wash.

I'd like to see the headlights as well.

Carolinagirl · 02-11-2015, 08:39 PM

Looks great. Didn't see the last pics before my previous comment. Love the look.

I had tinted headlights headlights 2 cars ago on my 335i.

I much prefer the slight tint that you have on yours now

That looks sick by the way!

The H&R springs use the same part number for both the 28i and the 35i, unfortunately the difference in weight over the front axle seems to leave a significant amount of wheel gap.

f30luxline · 02-14-2015, 07:48 AM

Lookin' good! Tastefully done imo.

I initially didn't care for the tinting of the lights. When done with a high % it actually looks pretty good. I don't think this mod should be done for people who drive a lot at night.

+1...exactly why I spend the extra for coils. Springs never seem to sit right and I think it worsens the ride. BC Racing makes some very affordable ones.

+ 2 for BC Racing

Very affordable, entry level coils. So affordable it is cheaper then the typical B8, H&R setup!!

In Europe are two different part numbers: 28877-2 for 435i and 28877-1 for 428i...
