Hey everyone,
I’ve had my car since January 19th of this year but never started a build thread!
I have a 2015 335i but before getting this car I had a 2015 328i.
I learned a lot from that 328 but the power wasn’t enough for me. I found myself constantly flooring it to get up to speed since the N26/N26 low end torque is BAD. The 328i was a lease, so after turning it in I made my first official car purchase. A 2015 335i.
My plans before purchasing the car were to instantly start modding, specifically a tune.
Within the second day of ownership I installed MHD Stage 2. I know it wasn’t a good idea with the stock chargepipe & downpipe but FULL SEND! Oh, and I enabled burbles.
After tuning, i started working on aesthetics. I did the first mod any F30 owner does... dual slat grilles
I had already had a spoiler on the 328i so I took that off and put it on to the 335i.
A little while after that I decided to try out a front lip. The first front I ever had was a plastic M performance style off of eBay. That eventually flew off since the dealership had reinstalled it after a bumper repaint, so I ended up with the same lip but in gloss black at their expense
Then came a few more modifications to the back end: DEPO Blackline Taillights, plastic MP style diffuser, and black 335i badge.
Soon after that, I realized I had to do something about the sound. I got an electric cutout before the muffler & a resonator delete
Eventually i started buying carbon fiber. During my time searching for parts I discovered the best carbon company ever, JHP Dynamics. I hit him up on Instagram and that day I got my first CF part ever, the JV.1 spoiler! It made the car look way more aggressive, but it was missing the carbon diffuser, so eventually I got that from JHP as well!
Through JHP I discovered bestmotorwerks/909__racing. They hooked it up with a great price on a chargepipe install and a downpipe&install! At that point, the car was completely straight piped (with the cutout open).
Commence flames!
After a very long search, I finally settled on some wheels. Aodhan LS007
The build sat still for a while until I finally upgraded the intercooler. I decided to go with the G-Plus intercooler and it performs perfectly.
Don't have any pics of installation :/
After that the car was on MHD Stage 2+.
A few months later the JHP Dynamics P Lip was installed.
Finally, I decided to focus on the interior more since the exterior was pretty much done for the time being. The first thing I did was CF overlays. Eventually I did a suede wrap on the steering wheel, upgraded the paddle shifters, and upgraded the center trim.
And now the build is at a standstill. New things coming in 2020
