OEM gloss black kidney grills and LED door strips, very pleased with the result.
I'm tempted by these door sills...
They took 5 mins to install if it helps make your mind up?

I put them on my Amazon list... I need motivation not to do it and a little cash spend fatigued.

Got a $365 free shipping price for an OEM diffuser... more than an eBay one I know but easier for my unskilled level to install!

That's a helluva price on OEM.

I did the eBay one; a little bit of a pain to install, but (surprisingly) excellent fitment once I was done.

Has anyone seen/ fitted these in black. Clearly this brand isn't an option with the 'prefect' fit....

Got my car back from the dealer - they fixed the driver door actuator (they said they've replace "a lot" of them) and my horns were replaced (the cold weather knocked one of the two horns out of commission)

I have a white car. My apron on the entrance to my drive is not compatible with the M Performance front splitter.... so thinking of these. I don't have CF anywhere else on the outside of the car...

I wouldn't get hung up on not having cf anywhere else on the car, there's no real system or program for how bmw chooses to locate cf trim on the exterior anyway. It varies by model...

Reality is (also) once you install those cf bumper extentions you may end up wanting to add something else that's cf such as the mirror covers lol.

I have the same bumper that's in this pictured in this product. Was thinking this splitter on black sapphire metallic, it looks like it'd cover the scratch well lol, but not sure how it will look overall

They are called WHISKERS - did a quick search... didn't see CF yet.

Edit - Carbon wrap is you best bet...

I’ve had my 2015 320i for almost three years now and have enjoyed following this thread. I’ve never posted to it but thought I would today. I ditched the run flat tires and went with a set of Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+. I’m excited to get the new tires on the car and see how they ride. I also put carbon fiber mirror caps on last week.

I’ve previously added a Dinan Stage 1 tuner and Bimmertech rear view camera with SmartView. Looking forward to getting some coding done soon and maybe a couple other mods later on.

I appreciate everyone’s posts. It’s great to see all the cool ways to improve these already great cars.

But I can’t get the pics to resize so I can post them. Oh well.
