How does this work when the tail lights are on?

I'll try to get some examples

Yeah it’s an N20. Didn’t swap the master cylinder, but we did perform the coding and installed braided lines. Brake pressure feel is fine.

Thats good! Definitely on my list to do, and was curious to see if any other n20 owners had to do that or not

How's it feel this far?

Honestly, performance wise it's a bit disappointing. There is basically no initial bite when braking, so I feel like pedal travel to slow down has increased. Once I do get some bite... damn thing stops on a dime! So it's a bit of a trade off.

After 100 miles driving, I have three words... HOLY BRAKE DUST!

You need to bed the brakes in. Also the dealer programming for the option will help a bit. It helped on my E82 at least. But there is no getting around the fact that the brake piston volume has increase so the pedal travel will be longer. On my E82 I opted to swap master cylinders for a larger one and it was amazing after that.

Wash and dress the black-trim pieces (non-gloss except also the grill) with mothers back-to-black

Oh no!! Well I've seen people trying to find lower dust pads so def check those out when these pads go, or just replace them now to save your self headache later if it's that bad!

So the rear lights will be solid without blinker. No change from normal. Just when blinker on the whole light blinks as seen

Cool....but also illegal though, tail lights are supposed to be solid all the time lights are on, hence dual filaments on regular bulbs where the tail lights and the turn signals are bundled together..

Icecph · 05-08-2021, 06:39 PM

Replaced the boring original center console gear trim and parking brake with alcantara and dry carbon. M performance parking brake
Alcantara and dry carbon just adds more quality to the interior..

auburnf30x · 05-08-2021, 10:15 PM

Windows tinted today. 35% sides and rear, clear film for the front. Not for looks so much as the brutal southeastern sun.

And, got a mini version for my desk at work.

Don’t have the full size version of the Z3 behind it...yet.

Fliplegend · 05-10-2021, 10:48 AM

Yearly inspection/emissions.

cdwalls · 05-10-2021, 11:09 AM

sorry, last spam picture... dig this new look.

WagonHo · 05-11-2021, 11:54 AM

Installed the painted reflectors, painted keyhole cover, and red start/stop button from IND. Color match was perfect. Dead easy to install.

Logicoeur · 05-11-2021, 01:20 PM

Finally got my catted downpipe installed. It is a Circuitwerks 200cell. Pwg but the middle section is 4". No CEL guarantee and I came on immediately 🤣. Will add MHD soon.

At rhe time of purchase there werent any other options with an oem style bracket on the downpipe. Soon after CTS dropped theirs, making it the second on the market though.

Welds are nice, came packaged nicely. Exhaust note is throaty, ans really supplements the remus axleback nicely. Exactly what I was looking for. OE pops are audible inside the car with the windows up, and without being obnoxious. No rasp at all so far.

Why don't you go with catless?

I have a 7mo in my backseat all the time, and I didn't want it to get too loud. Not looking to scrape every hp out of the car or chase a number. Plus retaining SOME fuel burning element in the exhaust is nice.

Are those the 513M 18"s on the car or reps? If Reps, where/who sells them.

matthewusm · 05-11-2021, 10:21 PM

Added some tint and a good wash. Enjoying the new addition.

Pauloxxi · 05-12-2021, 07:55 AM

Installed the Wi-Fi antenna in my F30, so. Ow the CarPlay works with my cell in my backpack on the back seat. Great not having to keep the phone restricted to center console. My CarPlay was added through code months ago.

Looks very good, I am still waiting on my MAD intercooler (backorder until whenever) but I might as well put a downpipe to be ready for stage 2.
How much was it? Where did you buy it from, I can't find a catted downpipe or any F30 335i downpipes on their website.
