Big Blue build: F31 Msport wagon, Estoril II over Saddle
Day she came off the truck, followed by a few weeks after she came back from the body shop and had her first round of mods (KW V1's, 335i Muffler, AC Schintzer type II's.)
Ran and actually drove great, only code I could pull with the scanner was for the Ambient Temperature sensor, and obviously the headlights and fogs. $16k auction from California. Originally registered to BMW in New Jersey ended up being used as a demo for the BMW Performance Center West. Crashed during driving course by one of the participants and was written off. I ended up going with an M3 rep front bumper and side skirts, I was just going to do another Msport front and skirts to replace the damaged items, but I had to wait about a month from the day she came off the truck till the bodyshop was able to fit me in the schedule so I looked at options and decided I liked the M3 style stuff more, especially the side skirts.

I found the driver door used locally for about $400, Found a headlamp on Ebay for about $500, came without the LED modules for the CELIS lights, luckily I was able to salvage them from the broken one. They also painted the new front bumper and side skirts for me. Unfortunately the only place that had a rear passenger door for the touring was BMW, but it wasn't too bad. |

Nice, did you change up the exhaust with the upgrades?

After a lot of deliberating I went with staggered CI-Rs. I wanted a square set up of 20x9 but I didn't think a +25 was going to give me the fitment I wanted up front so I went with 20x8.5 and 20x9.5.
They are sitting in my garage, I'm planning to mount some NT1's over the summer and use them for track wheels when the weather turns more agreeable here in AZ Yep, I found a 335i Exhaust for sale locally and had a local shop weld it up. I wanted the rear to be symmetrical, never liked tips off to one side, would rather hide them completely like I did on my old 540. |

Hmm, considering my nickname on the local BMW forum was "curb surfer" I'm inclined to keep them on...lol I already curbed the Schnitzers once, although I have gotten pretty good at repairing rash on my own since I do it so often...lol |

Not really sure what else I want to do. Maybe a DP/full exhaust. Motor is currently stock except for the ESS tune. I'd like to find a set of the orange caliper M-performance brakes. |
