I love the custom interior mods. The LCI AC controls with ambient lighting is great!

Part #s are from the latest BMW Electronic Dealer Catalogue.
There are 2 numbers for F30/F31 LCI:
64119358939 for cars without Light Package (not illuminated)
64119358940 for cars with Light Package (SA563)

You'd want the latter.
Just go to your dealer and order with this #. The price in Germany is EUR 36,- incl. VAT.

so sick...nicely done

If I want bigger exhaust tips like yours but in dark color...what size do I get?
Can you give me more info? I know you said you got Tajco but I don't think we have that here in US

Thank you!

Its important that the tips are not larger than 72mm in Diameter. That is the maximum with the stock exhaust.

I'm sure the Tajco brand tips are also available in he U.S.
Try searching for these numbers:

They are made from Stainless steel throughout and very good quality.
Its model no. 4228 from Tajco. They are also available in matt aluminum finish, no. 4238.

Edit: Seen them on eBay, too.

Someone on our german Forum blacked them out using gloss black plastidip, which seemed to work out well despite the heat.

Thanks mate!
I finally was sick of my cars looking sad for half a year!
And this non runflat setup was even cheaper than OEM 18" runflat winters.
Plus it drives much better!

I really like the look of them and I think it alters the look of the whole car.

Possible mods in the future are some kind of exhaust and maybe some lightweight wheels.
Lowering the car is not an option, as I have a pretty steep access to my Garage.

This is how she looks right now:

Hi Dante. Do you have a thread for the install of that m3 mirrors? Looks awesome man.

Nr. 51 16 8 058 966 - Sakhir Orange
Nr. 51 16 8 058 965 - Silverstone 2
Nr. 51 16 8 058 967 - Sonoma Beige
Nr. 51 16 8 058 964 - Black

So if I order part # 51 16 8 058 964 - Black , it will come with the black leather side part with white stitching?

Yes, from my research it should be.
But please confirm with your dealer.

Thanks Dante,

you have excellent taste.

Good job.

Ok, a late update on the car:
She is now 4.8 years old and has 107.000 kms on odo.
Since I have the M2 and my other toys for summer driving, she now only gets travel kilometers and winter use. I'm still in love with her, enjoying the very powerful yet economical engine and the smooth transmission. I've never had another BMW which drives like the first day after this period of time. She will be the first BMW I'll own for a whole model lifecycle. Yeah, shes that good!

Since I still love her, I've recently pulled the trigger on the M-Performance Active Sound exhaust system. Not only because of the artificially generated sound (BMW did a good job here), but for the 6% less backpressure (helps with the M-Performance tune) and of course the looks.

Check it out:

Dante · 12-27-2017, 03:52 AM

Here's a good video of the install and before and after sound (not my car). Don't mind the joke @3:06, even BMW can't do magic!
