Love that dash ambient! I'm looking to do that radio a/c trim too! Just don't know if mines the easy one or the hard one 😂

japanwings · 02-20-2021, 07:58 AM

Placed the Maxton rear spoiler and dual slat grille

Can't go wrong with APEX, proven quality and reliability. Love the ARC-8s on my F32.

Had come in and out of the city a few times this past week and my car was painfully dirty with grime and salt. So took advantage of the "balmy" 37 deg F/ 2 deg C weather and pressure blasted the whole car + undercarriage and then bravely hand washed using hot water from the shower. My neighbours def think I'm insane.

Skyhigh · 02-22-2021, 02:15 AM

Ha! Ask my neighbours what they think!
I used a WATERING CAN to spill mine from the dirt a few days ago, since the water in the hose was frozen! Imagine how that looked...

bmw4jh · 02-22-2021, 03:04 AM

Replaced the valve cover in my 335i F30. Pain in the ass but, doable.

Silverlining_m2 · 02-22-2021, 08:25 AM

Into the dealership for plugs, oil, and an alignment.

Not yet. I'm debating it. Lip already has less than 4" clearance to the ground.

a casual 1 inch drop shouldn't hurt anybody.
Beautiful ride btw.

Totally agree. But it's gotta be coilovers. I'm not into lowering springs. Gotta get about 2k worth of brakes this spring and then it could be on the list

And thank you kindly!

Skyhigh · 02-22-2021, 05:02 PM

I for one think the height looks perfect as is. Lower would look "cheap".
But that's just my 2 cents.

Do me a favour, for comparison - how many fingers can you stick freely between the tire and the arch front and back (and is there any difference, potentially slight reverse rake)?

Yes, same as you actually you.. I ordered some coilovers - Bilstein B14 PSS (picked these ones), didn't want to go with only springs.

radicalrev · 02-22-2021, 07:48 PM

I've ordered M style kidney grills, OBD2 BT adapter along with Bimmercode app, red start stop button and rear spoiler. Now wondering what should be next

cramsnik · 02-23-2021, 07:45 AM

Added the M-performance handbrake gaitor -

Plug n play, very simple, took me 30 minutes to install.

So jealous! Did you buy it brand new or found a used one? They are hard to find used, but I can't really motivate buying a brand new one. Expensive little upgrade...

Off topic, doesn't it bother you that the handbrake is gloss carbon and the the other interior bits is dry?
Maybe it's just my ocd
