Just ordered some Autotecknik aluminum paddle shifters and got my front lip in the mail. Shifters will go on asap, lip will go on after paint in the spring.

See how it looks like the reflectors were never there? Basically fill and paint the openings vs just installing color matched reflectors.

Welcome. Love the F32 and especially your color and tasteful mods. When the 4 series came out I also had to have one and the N55 is just a great engine with tons of torque and almost no lag.

Quick update, I have been busy learning about all of the capabilities my car has locked up by codes. Between BimmerCode and E-sys, I have activated Sirius XM (and got a free year!), enhanced Bluetooth / Bluetooth audio, LCI tailight coding to stop flickering, LCI tails on with DRLs, warning message deactivated, mirror fold on lock, windows up on lock with no delay, low beams soft on when unlocked (contingent on darkness), amber side markers deactivated unless signaling, and a lot of other little things.

and another self bump for front lip test fit. I will be color matching the "fangs" blue and having the lower slat painted gloss black as well as the side skirt slats. Now if only IND can hook me up with some BBS CI-Rs for the spring...

I literally just registered to reply to this thread (and eventually discuss my similar EBII 435i) Our cars look great with tinting, it really seems to make the blue pop better. My side marker lights are tinted and look great too. But I'm trying to figure out if you literally used body filler and painted your front clip to hid yours?

thanks! yea I have 25% all around and 50% on the windshield. It's perfect and gets rid of the weird contrast between the non tinted / blue windshield and the tinted sides. as for the front bumper, I have a good friend who did some work on my car, one thing I had him do was shave the side marker off. Not sure of his method on patching the sidemarker hole, but its great and there are no waves. Like a real Euro spec Bmw ignore the test fitted front lip, but you can see the reflector area better here

What some people do is use the sidemarker as a stencil and cut a patch from a similar bumper, then fit, add filler and paint. you can buy a scrap bumper from a junkyard as long as it is similar material and thickness.

I haven't updated this thread in a long time, but I recently had my front lip, skirts and new rear valence all painted and installed.
