Looks great! Stock 320i springs?
Is that a replica rear diffuser?

Yes to both.

The springs are stock, though I may get the H&R springs eventually. Just not sure yet because it's my daily driver.

The rear diffuser came with the replica bumper I purchased from an eBay seller in California.

I still need to find some M Sport side skirts that aren't as expensive as OEM, yet don't look cheap like a lot of the aftermarket alternatives. I'm in no rush though, they're pretty low on my priorities list.

Here's a comparison of my F30 from when I bought her on Thanksgiving weekend to how she sits now.

looks really good man. if you found some led replacements for the turn signals in the headlights so it doesn't look orange it would be about perfect.

I had a set of GP Thunder chrome bulbs installed that looked fantastic, however they kept throwing codes or shorting out for some reason. It forced me to go back to the OEM bulbs for the time being.

kern417 · 02-20-2017, 08:00 PM

dang, that's too bad. i know the leds can throw a code since it doesn't have the same resistance as halogen bulbs. i wonder if there a way to disable the bulb check or bulb errors?

Nope I have never been about clearing and changing headlights doesn't make a car look cleaner in my opinion. Also I have always said its a safety item put there for a reason and People are stupid enough driving as is.

kern417 · 02-23-2017, 11:10 AM

lol, it doesn't make it any less safe. the LED still lights up yellow, it just doesn't have an amber reflection in the headlight. just look at the corners on Hack14's projectors a few posts up. if its ok to put clear lenses on the turn indicators on your mirrors and those stick out way farter than your headlight, idk how replacing the headlight could make it less safe.

Still don't care your opinion will be filled in where it belonged

I took this after I installed my front lip. The metallic black looks like glass when polished. The pic looks cool with the reflection of the clouds.

great build man. my car started off almost the same way, except came with better wheels. the front bumper is driving me crazy, but i don't think i'll replace it cuz i'm leasing for 2 more years. how much did it cost you total?

edit: nvm just found your build thread, cool

At this point, I'd venture to guess that I've spent somewhere in the neighborhood of $5-6k on modifications. Though, I've probably made about $2k of it back after selling the OEM parts that were replaced. Thus far, everything I've added has been purely cosmetic. I'll move onto some modest performance mods at some point later this year.

Here's a list of everything I've added to this point.

-Replica M6 Wheels/Tires w/ TPMS
-M Sport Front & Rear Bumpers - BSM
-M Performance Front Lip
-M Performance Rear Diffuser
-DEPO LED Angel Eye Headlights
-Kidney Grills - BSM
-Replica F80 Mirror Caps - BSM
-Rear Deck Spoiler - BSM
-OEM Exhaust Tip - Black Chrome
-M Sport Steering Wheel/Airbag
-M Performance Interior Trim Kit - Alcantara/CF
-Window Tint (15% Around/35% Windshield)
-BMW Emblems - Carbon Fiber
-Gloss Black B Pillar Posts

whats the spec and name of those black rim?????

Regulator · 03-11-2017, 06:23 PM

I wanted to change up the look of the rear of my car so I installed some black chrome exhaust tips and an msport replica diffuser. Pretty cheap way to completely change the appearance of the car... Not sure how anyone on here will feel about these fake enhancements, but I love it.

The diffuser was a b**** to install.. it was like completely straight whereas the stock part had a gentle curve to it. Had to muscle it into position. I ripped the stock exhaust covers off by hand heh. Pretty easy to do with the stock diffuser removed.

Everything you've done on your car is what I'd like to do to mine. Specifically the headlights and steering wheel. Keep up the awesome work and I look forward to your future mods!
