AWE midpipe and axleback exhaust installed today!!! So good all around... perfect tone, perfect volume, perfect fitment and top quality.
I would highly recommend considering AWE if you are looking for F30 exhaust.

I decided to take last night and today and really clean the car... I usually do a wash/vacuum every week, but I had not waxed the car since taking delivery. (Since I did so at the Performance Center I was confident they prepped it well...)
I started last night... vacuumed the interior; cleaned all leather, plastic, and vinyl; cleaned and buffed the windows; and cleaned the engine bay. I used a variety of Chemical Guys products, which I have been really liking lately. This morning I finished the rest... washed exterior and cleaned wheels/tires; clay kit on paint and windshield; second exterior wash; synthetic paste wax; Rain X; tire shine. I even took time to put some quick wax on all the painted door jambs. For the exterior I used a combination of Chemical Guys and Mothers products. When it was all done I finally took a video to go with the new exhaust... Sport + mode... engine was warm... Enjoy!!

M Performance LSD installed today.
I drove to a nearby parking lot and proceeded to break it in via some instructions I found on another thread - 20 full lock figure eights, 20 full lock left hand circles, 20 full lock right hand circles, all at idle speed. I'm going to go easy for 500 miles (per BMW...) then I'll report back. In that timeframe I will have the DINAN springs & bumpstops, BBS CI-R wheels and Michelin PS4 tires installed so the car will be ready to rip by then.

This is what I used on my 340. The same site also sells custom colored roundels. |

M Performance rear spoiler fitted yesterday. I opted for the BetaLink and took my time... turned out pretty well.

Looks great. I have a similar build to yours with coral red interior. I just recently added the MPPSK to it. I’m going to need to get that spoiler, it looks great.
Here’s mine if you’re interested. View post on imgur.com |

Thanks! I had the mirror caps from my F30 335i. I bought them before a lot of the copies came out on the market, so I paid like $600 something to a BMW dealer for them, and never could bring myself to sell them after the 335i was sold. At least now I’m getting my money’s worth.

Now this is how this car should be!!
Full update: M Performance spoiler, M Performance LSD, DINAN springs and ride quality kit, BBS CI-R, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2. (The Michelin PS4s were on back order... I am ok with that after driving these Cup 2s...) The BBS CI-Rs are 19x8.5 et35 & 19x9.5 et40. They are wrapped in 235/40/19 & 265/35/19. IMO these wheels/tires are the perfect fit for this car, and of course the DINAN springs helped that. I'm running 31.5 & 34.5 psi cold in the tires, which warm up to 34.5 & 37.5 hot... they grip so well with these pressures so I probably won't play with it much more. (These are the pressures that Michelin recommends for these tires.) The combination of the LSD and these wider wheels and sticky tires has given this car so much more potential at the limit. It grips so hard and gets all the power down, it's truly amazing. Enjoy some pictures for now... next up is an intake and tune, likely followed by two-piece rotors and upgraded pads.

Your car is set up so nice man I love it! Tasteful mods and you used all the highest quality parts, not cheap. I’m sure it performs great now with the wheels, tires and suspension plus that diff! And it looks perfect the way it sits! Cheers

Thanks man, I appreciate that. Yeah I'm really happy with how it turned out and it drives so well... the LSD really made a huge difference in getting all the power down on the RWD.
