I saw a guy with a debadged EBII 428i with some black 19/20" wheels. Let me tell you, when you do it right as the OP did, these 4ers are some of the best looking cars on the road today.
Great work OP

That looks dope skip the BMW MPE and do a different system. It's way too quiet and others have said they could not even hear the difference from inside the cabin.
I bought the dinan and am very happy but there are plenty of other systems that sound even better but cost more. Check out all the YouTube videos and posts on the forum regarding the different options. |

Looks great! Did you consider a carbon fiber roof wrap? I have an Alpine White M-Sport and tinkering with the idea myself. Post some more pics please!

428i M Sport cosmetic Mods
Hi Guys, thanks for the feedback I appreciate it.
Yes I thought about doing the CF roof, but the gloss Black tied in better with the sunroof just as DesertSmokeBBQ had posted. Also as the window trims, air vents & the new grills are all in gloss black I think it ties in better. Thanks for the info bmw-nj re the muffler, I will look it up on Youtube and see if there is a distributor in OZ. I have attached more pics enjoy. |

looks beautiful! I just picked up a F32 M sport 335 and want to replace the kidney grills as the first mod. - I've been looking online for gloss black, does anyone here recommend a good site?
Thanks |

I love the white with black contrast very nice and aggresive with the black rims. I would suggest a M Performance CF Rear Spoiler & Rear diffuser.
The M Performance Exhaust is much better than stock but compared to Eisenmann, InnoTech & others it's a tad little too quiet. Under load, sounds are better, it burbles & cracks under low speeds. Here's a clip of mine - Before & After for a 328i but should give you a rough idea of your 428i, since it's the same engine. |
