A tune and downpipe back exhaust system would be a good start.

The car looks awesome! Question - on your M Performance Rear Spoiler, were you able to order it in EBII, or did you have it painted after it arrived?

M3guy, I have to say. You suck!

The cost of my projected build is going through the roof cause of this thread.
Very sick car, love every bit. Love the color though I plan on a different color myself that blue is a super close 2nd.

Is the p3 vent gauge still available? I had one in my e90 and loved it.

Sorry it's sold. The gauge was one of my favorite mods. Going to see if I can get them to make me one for the e70 now.

Those would be the rear red reflectors painted gloss black. They go right above the diffuser below the rear bumper.

Had it done at the same time as everything else so I don't have an exact number. Shouldn't be too bad though, just remember you get what you pay for when it comes to bodywork.
