What did you do to your F3X today?

COSBimmer2 · 09-09-2021, 11:56 AM

Replaced the timing chain, installed VRSF(?) downpipe. Hope the wife likes the new sound!

AndrewC1989 · 09-10-2021, 06:03 PM

Added some M Sport door sill scuff plates:

It bothers me that the rears don't have an M as well. What an odd thing for BMW to cheap out on.

I agree with you, I think they should've made it look the same. Wondering if maybe I should've gotten the sport-line trim instead:

Agree, I have an M Sport and the rears are blank. They're so much smaller I moved on though.

Put the Injen intake and VRSF charge pipe in and the Variant Radons arrived.

amancuso · 09-14-2021, 08:15 AM

Going to be detailing the 428i in advance of an upcoming road trip this coming week. Think I'm fond of the F3x/F8x design?

Samir72 · 09-15-2021, 03:14 PM

Fitted m performance trim which I got 60% off

McGyv3r · 09-15-2021, 04:09 PM

Turned my turbo noises up to 11, came with a slight reduction on performance though.

AndrewC1989 · 09-15-2021, 04:10 PM

Added some fresh floor mats and M performance side skirt extensions

erks · 09-16-2021, 02:15 AM

Got a ridiculously big paint chip on my f31s driver door thanks to someone not giving a s*it when getting out of their car. Also I washed her.

Sorry, that sucks

Thanks to messygarageBMW for the help with converting my 435i over to M4 brakes.

The car now sports the blue Brembo calipers (front and rear), Brembo rotors (370mm and 345mm), Stoptech stainless steel lines, and Hawk 5.0 pads.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

I'm thinking about doing the same, how does the braking feel? Is it very noticeable, do you think it's worth it?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I did a similar upgrade including ss lines and for day to day driving you won't notice much difference. If you track your car then it will be an improvement. I did it purely for looks. If you decide to go for it make sure the coding is done too.

visionaut · 09-17-2021, 07:07 PM

Tighten Up

installed the snap-in canyon-carving fixins…

MSCD · 09-18-2021, 12:41 PM

Washed it and got a set of floating center caps for my birthday. Plan to install with the winters

BEM-S4 · 09-18-2021, 03:56 PM

Escort M2 dash cam to go along with the Redline 360 radar detector and ZW5 laser shifters. Unlike the M1, the M2 that just launched does work with the laser shifter. Finally!
