Insane. New wheels look good. Prefer the 437's though

Thanks for the kind words. Unfortunately I can't keep the Oz Futura's but they may be for sale soon. So I'll have to see if I can sell a kidney to afford to buy them off my mate.

Coming from an F56 Mini JCW (manual) it's a bit of a departure from the hot hatch world but it's nice to be back in something a little more "grown up" (although I am missing the pops and bangs from the JCW pro exhaust)

Previous to the Mini I've only had VW / Audi's and modded them quite a bit. This is my first "proper" BMW so it's all new to me.

Just installed the black kidney grills this morning and grabbed a couple of pics whilst out shooting a mates S3 this afternoon.

Very nice car!

Update.

Custom 2 PC Forged Wheels ordered

Now the 10/12 week wait for them to be manufactured, tested, VIA / JWL approved

In the meantime I'll need to find a buyer for the 437Ms

Here's a pic I took at the weekend

Thanks. I'm not a fan of the pointy Batman style mirror covers.
Carbon fibre standard shape ones are fine.

I agree, either go OEM or leave stock. Nothing I hate more than poor-quality 3rd party parts. When I had my n55 m2 I did a 3rd party retrofit and hated it. Eventually went OEM M2C and it was so much nicer.

Stock on top, 3rd party middle, oem bottom



You get what you pay for:

I think they suit the M cars with their wider aggressive styling

Local meet last night

Sneak peek at the wheels. They have been built now and are just going through the final stages of testing and certification.

Keeping with the OEM+ theme

Can't wait to get them on

Looking good per usual! Any plans to do the MP side skirt extensions?

[BlueJ]

Super clean build dude, not a whole lot of modded 330e's from what I've seen. If the fiancé would go for it, bags and the 437m's would be on the list for me after seeing yours.

Yes mate. They are on my list of things to do, would like a more aggressive rear diffuser also but they're are not many options out there in the UK at least, the M Performance one I have seems to be as good as it gets at the moment.

There are a few modified ones about but not many. I know some actually running some quite big power too.


Thanks, it's deffo a clean look, factory styling but with extra deep concave.
Let's hope your fiancé can see the benefits of having a sweet looking 330e 😂
My wife doesn't get a say. She doesn't drive so she just gets to be a passenger in whatever car I decide to modify.

Unfortunately the 330e is her daily since she commutes and reliability and gas mileage is priority for her. I've got an SQ5 to tinker with and haul the nieces and dogs.

Ah I see. Show her the pics and see if she thinks it looks better like this ! Lol

Rinsed the Sahara sand from Saturdays rain storms and got out to catch the sunset

Wheel update:
Keeping the 437M for daily use
Selling the 442M (see classifieds)
Splits should be with me mid July - hopefully in time for my birthday on the 10th as they are more or less a present for myself 😂

[_baz]

Update.

My wheels are still not with me
But I borrowed these again, now with grey centres 🤣
