Hello everyone and welcome to my build thread. Been a lurker on these forums for year’s and finally decided to make my first thread.
The past 4 years I have been driving a BMW and loving it. Recently sold my E90 320i after 4 years ownership and last year 2018 in September I picked up my 2018 F32 420i .
Since we got 150% tax on our cars in Denmark, it does not have all options I wanted, so I will have to retrofit most of it. The car was 61k USD.

Base stats:
2018 BMW 420i - F32 LCI – Auto – B48 engine

Exterior mods:
Z-Performance wheels – 18” ZP.01 in matt black (Winter wheels)
Eibach sportline springs – lowering 25/20MM
Carbon Rear Spoiler – Performance look
Vinyl wrapped fender boomerang black
BMW M-Performance gloss black kidney grills

Interior mods:
Wrapped interior trim in Vivid Alcantara look vinyl
BMW M-Performance Carbon door sills

Future mods:

Purchased not fitted yet:
M-sport bumper kit with M-Performance lips, diffuser 440i, side-skirt extensions.
M-sport blue caliper set with drilled rotors

In order:
Freidrich Motorsport dual exhaust with gloss black tips Ø100MM

Plans:
BC Forged split 20” wheels for summer
Coilover kit KW or Bilstein
OEM M4 Trunk lid
GTS look rear spoiler – With high kick mounts
M4 look Mirror surrounds in gloss black with carbon fiber cover
Wrapped roof in gloss black
GTS or other vented hood
-
GTS Steering wheel with M4 paddle shift retrofit
M4 used seats and door panels in Red or black leather
Carbon fiber trim panels
Retrofit light package for center console
Retrofit 6WB cluster
Retrofit Professional large screen
Code 2TB sports transmission
Maybe custom Alcantara headliner
Maybe more to come, add and delete ideas all the time.

Nice build thread. The plan to add coilovers will lead to a completely transformed suspension behavior, if compared with base suspension.

PS. The taxes on vehicles in Denmark are eye opening. My former colleague moved from the US to Denmark for a couple of years (intra company transfer) and had trouble adjusting to a life without a car and garage.

Not wasting any time with the brakes! Nice!

Thanks

Will plan to do some mods to the suspension, just not sure how crazy to go yet. Since i only live 5 -6 hours from the Nürburgring and other race tracks, it might be worth to add sway bars etc.

Yeah car taxes in Denmark are stupid. I live a one hour drive from Germany and if I lived there I could have purchased a used M4 instead

Thanks. I got my vinyl of the Vivid store online. Very easy to work with.
