Your car, your call.

Thank you for the additional info. I am certainly careful when doing any modifications to my car and just like you take in consideration the legality of all my mods. So far, I was unable to find a specific text prohibiting that tinting in my state. There could be precedents though so more lexis nexis coming up.
On the other hand I don't need to commute for at least 3 more months so I might wrap the taillights just to see what it looks like in person.

Cleaned off the pollen on my and wife's car and California duster on the E93, put the vert on to charge too!

Edit
Added the rear blinds couple weeks back.

Rear shot added!

Sure, I would do the research. Enjoy and good luck. Just offering up a perspective. Cheers!

Washed and waxed her today. Put on new Gloss Black M style mirror caps too!

VRSF charge pipe, Injen intake, and a Advanced Autowerke's axle back. Very pleased with the results.

Mud flaps? What? 19x10s man!
(And yes, those are f30 splash guards on a f32! Front bolt right-up, rear need 3 holes to drill. Easy.)

Tough call after a couple of drives today.... I do believe that throttle response is crisper if nothing else.... Note that after driving my primary 2004 Tacoma just about anything feels fast. Lol

🤣 if throttle response improved, that's a plus. Is the turbo spool noticeably more audible?

I've been considering Dinan upgrade.... be interested in best bang for buck stage wise.

Removed the chrome 340i badge and replaced with black, also removed the XDrive badge since the all black one looks goofy.

Joking. It is a beautiful intake and must have advantages over stock. Though it's certainly not the lowest priced option.

Stage 1 is about all you need. Past that you get a little more at the top end but less down low - check out the graphs online. Depending on your driving style can even be less enjoyable around town.

I've got stage 2 on my 6-cyl F23 but that's a different thing entirely. If you're looking bang for your buck on the 4 cyl go stage 1, afe dry drop in filter, and an ER charge pipe and you're pretty much done. You'll have a very nice OEM+ experience. After that you're spending more and getting less.

Check with Andi and Mikey up at Thompson they're authorized dealers for all of the above.

Completed the wheel stud conversion from Motorsport Hardware. Really happy with how easy it is to remove/install the wheels now. The nuts look great too, but I'll have to post better photos tomorrow in the daylight as I finished after sundown. Before and after shots below.

Added carbon diffuser and Bavsound ghost subs today. Had help from the little one. Was a pretty good day!
