Bizzy, throw SilverVision turn signals and color matched reflectors on the front and your car would be perfect. That's all that's missing.

And stick to no spoiler on the trunk, makes the rear end look too busy. The rear is flawless as-is.

do you have a link to the reflectors, and are they easy to swap on and off?

I love the ///M Performance interior trim, but I hate the idea of sacrificing the blue stripe... I love both! Wish there was a best of both worlds option. LoL.

Your car is gorgeous btw.

Check out the diy section, someone with the M interior kit did just that.

Found it, thanks for the heads up. Not exactly how I pictured it though, and I don't like the idea of breaking both trims.

PM Nate from IND, you can get the reflectors from him: http://www.f30post.com/forums/member.php?u=15081

The install is very simple: http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=730082

The turn signals (these are legal in every state): http://bit.ly/16BqA5W

Gorgeous car this thread is really pushing me towards EB2. I have to decide between Alpine White with Coral Red interior or EB2 with black on Monday. Dealer has both cars need to pick one. Where did you get those crazy LED fog lights?

Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Philips-12824W.../dp/B005DX6BKW

Had them installed at the dealer. They did a great job and they are functional. They are 5000K, which match the 5000K bulbs I had them install as well. I had them wire them up to stay on all the time, even with high beams.

Dealer claimed it was 10 hours, which is hard to believe, so we negotiated 3 hrs labor for the job. They do need to cut part of the plastic grill in the intake to make the lights fit flush and functional.

They look incredible in person and far exceeded my expectations, which are high to start with.

That is the stock M Sport bumper. I'm thinking of changing it out with the 1M bumper that is offered by LTMW and adding a Carbon Fiber Front Lip.

No extra parts needed, they used the brackets that came with the lights. They only had to cut a small piece of the plastic mesh out of the way to get the light to angle out correctly, so they would light up the road properly.

I have the 335i xDrive M Sport, so there was no fog light option, assuming you have the same car, you'll be fine with what you get.

Right after I took these photos 2 weeks ago, the car went back to the dealer for the 6th time for electrically issues. BMW immediately ordered me a new car, which I should have by the end of the month. I've spent $9500 on aftermarket thus far, not including labor, which they are transferring to the new car free of charge.

In the meantime, I'm either driving loaners while the car is at the dealer or the car itself.

Are you looking for particular photos? I can go take more if your looking for a particular shot. Just got the car back yesterday from the dealer after the latest issue.

It's in production in Munich and should be here in 3-4 weeks. They will be taking my old one as soon as the other gets in. Identical to my current with a couple of more options I wanted this time: 1) Driver Assistance Package, 2) Driver Assistance Plus, 3) Dynamic Handling Package, 4) 19" wheels.

They will transfer everything off the current one when it gets here. Probably take them a week to do the transfer. I've got $9500 in aftermarket on it, not including labor. The transfer will be free.

you shouldn't have had to pay for those if that was the only way to fix the squealing don't you think?
