Mods done in order:

Gloss black dual slat grilles

Gloss black front bumper painted reflectors
Unknown carbon fibre lip spoiler (removed)
Matte black M performance Side Extension
Matte black M performance diffuser
Carbon fibre M performance front lip
Carbon Fibre M Performance lip spoiler

Pretty much done visually and will probably just replace the mirror caps with carbon fibre M style caps.

Love the car so far and really happy I was able to complete the look! Can't wait for summer 😁
Hi, do you have any pictures close up of the contrast of matte black diffuser/spoiler against the BSM

As long as you don't excessively open and close the doors, it will be fine. I didn't have any problems.

I climbed out of the sunroof

Seriously, the little bit that it goes down doesn't matter. There's nothing that you can do about it.

First, I appreciate the posts from members and their F36s and love to see what have been done to them. Some terrific mods and great reference if I ever want to do any mods.

I was involved in a hit and run accident in New Orleans in early March. I had a 2012 Volvo S60 T5 that was meticulously maintained and in terrific condition. However, a 11 year old car with just under 128,000 miles equals totaled.

That put me in the market for a replacement. I knew I would be looking at a late model F36 as the replacement so I searched pre-owned inventory on the BMW site. I found this F36 in Eugene, OR and ended up purchasing it. I probably will not go mod crazy and keep it much like it is now. I did have the windows tinted to the maximum levels for Florida. My F36 may look good but it is in serious need of detailing. I am in a very busy period of work so my opportunity to detail my car will be sometime in July.

F32 8 months in and loving being back in a BMW!

Purchased a new-to-me 2018 F32 440i RWD back in October 2022 after about a 10 year gap in BMW ownership (Lexus, Genesis filled those 'responsible' years when I got married then wife and I had my daughter....) but always missed the feel, look, and sound from my prior 3 BMWs:
2003 330Ci Sport Silver/Gray
2008 335i Coupe Dark Gray/Cream w/ Dinan bits/tune/exhaust
2008 650i Coupe Blue/Cream

In the last 8 months, I've done a few mods to make this one my own:
10/5 - Dry Carbon Fiber interior vinyl wrap trim
10/6 - Dry Carbon Fiber paddle shifters
10/7 - 20% Window Tint
10/8 - BMS Billet Air Intake/Filter
10/8 - Matte Black Rear Diffuser
10/8 - Smoked rear reflectors
10/14 - Gloss black M-style mirror caps
10/14 - CF Steering wheel emblem
10/14 - New spark plugs w/ OEM spec/gap
10/15 - BimmerCode upgrades
10/18 - Fullscreen Apple CarPlay
10/22 - PlastiDip black 440i badge
10/29 - Carbon Fiber/Black ‘M’ Exhaust tips
10/29 - Active Autowerke Catless Downpipe
10/29 - BMS Silicon Air Intake Downpipe
10/30 - Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler CS style
11/5 - MHD Stage 2 ECU tune
11/5 - XHP Stage 3 Transmission tune
11/12 - PlastiDip Black over stock 704M wheels
These are now for sale at time of this post if anyone is interested in buying:
https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=30180792
11/12 - Smoked front side marker lenses

3/18 - New wheels and tires
Enkei TS-V in gloss black
wrapped in Firestone Firehawk Indy 500
F 18x8.5 ET38 | 245/45
R 18x9.5 ET40 | 275/40

4/9 - Lowering springs - H&R Sports with stock M Performance adaptive dampers

This forum community has been EXTREMELY helpful in each mod decision. So much great advice out there!

Here's some pics of the car along the way:

Love the blacked out look. There is something pleasing with Mineral Grey and black trim. Very sleek 440i.

Even though you replaced the 407s, I love the look of them. Would love to have a set of them on my 440i F36 but priorities prevail. After other house item are put in maybe I will look into a set down the road.

Thanks! The 704Ms I took off are for sale here if that house item doesn’t wipe you out and you’re interested At this rate, they might still be available anyway. Not getting a lot of hits locally in ATL so may open up to shipping.
