Hello everyone, been watching the forum for a couple of week now and thought it was about time I said hi.
I have Recently ordered a 330d msport xdrive in Estoril blue.

For my first mod I'd like to Add the m peformance splitter, front grill and rear spoiler. I don't fancy paying the dealerships prices so just wondering if anyone has tried any other sources such as ebay etc and could recommend a decent quality kit at a good price?

Also if anyone has these parts on ther f30 please feel free to post a pic on here as I'm unsure of what colour to paint them, I'm thinking a gloss black at the moment but that could change.

Ps I'm new to bmw and modding cars so please don't be too harsh.

Hi mate, welcome to the forum!

From personal experience, get genuine grills as the aftermarket ones aren't worth the hassle!

I do have a Taiwanese ebay boot spoiler (pre painted) and rear M performance diffuser which are both well worth the money saved over genuine ones.

As for front splitter the Taiwan ones have impressed other forum members, and there's also a fibre glass copy one for about £120 on eBay in Europe somewhere that should be worth a punt.

Oh and imo don't do gloss black as it doesn't look right. Matt black or body colour (or a mixture) looks much better.

Hi thanks for the reply, do you have any links to the Taiwan parts? Most of the ones I have seen have been made in Europe.
Thanks again

Hi try Bimmian. They have a CF splitter for reasonable money.

Diffuser that I've got: http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Unpainted-BMW...item2595b7ae94

Painted Spoiler that everyone has (£70.70 with shipping!): http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-2014-PA...74260d&vxp=mtr

Front splitter that I can't guarantee quality: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-3-F30-...item2a422824cb

P.S. Anything you buy from outside Europe is subject to a fairly small import duty charge.
