30secs · 06-24-2021, 04:02 PM

Hi all,
I've owned my f30 for about a month now and wanted to share the mods I've done. Maybe this can be used as a thread for others to share their first mods or ask questions.

Everything was a little over $1000. I think I'm pretty content except for 19" 442m wheels in looking locally for And find a local track

If you have any questions I'll be happy to help.

Mods completed;
Sunglasses holder $10
Rear spoiler white $70
Bmw door projector lights $10
Red seat & wheel covers $80
Dog backseat cover $15
Black Kidney grill $40
Cabin filter (diy) $18
Red Toe hook front $18
Front bumper lip $60
DIY wireless charger $10
Android screen $450
(Smart launcher, xdashboard, vava, f_cam)
Vava dual dashcam $100
Passive Comfort access $250
Front camera $25

Mods To do: 19" 442 wheels

My guy you should retrofit the M sport package with the bumper and steering wheel

Congrats on the new car! You’ve done a lot in one month!

What's the red tow hook for?

Not putting a label on the OP, but apparently it’s a thing. One of my coworkers constantly had a chrome tow hook on the front of his VW. I honestly thought he lived in a camper or something until I asked. He just liked the look.

And yeah, I learned shortly afterward that the camper theory is not what those are for, either.

Probably like what a piercing is to a human.

OP will find he will want to spend more on mods beside those done. That $1000 is going to balloon real fast. Haha!!

I considered it but it's an expensive overhaul. I'm pretty content with the more aggressive front bumper lip for now but who knows..

Thanks! I've done my research while the car was delivered (vroom) I think I got pretty much everything I need.

I added it to make it "mine" if that makes sense. and also it reminds me a few things I got the car for. and it adds a little safety in case I park too close to something..

hah maybe. I think it's been pretty comprehensive and I'm not really GASing for anything else except for another set of wheels. but maybe I'll get some other ideas.

the Android screen was one of the best investments. highly recommend. and the front can is pretty sweet. I often have it on while driving it and it makes me feel super connected to the ground

If you want to save money, I'd avoid looking at too many pics of m sport or m style front bumpers.

I think you have a beautiful car, however I don't see the reason for this Red Toe hook front?
Are expecting to be towed anytime soon to drive around with that?

Thank you. hopefully won't need a tow soon but you never know.

What's fascinating is the amount of attention this $10 hook gets. both here and irl. for that alone it's worth it

Yousuf7 · 06-30-2021, 10:23 AM

Love the mods. Where did you get the front bumper lip from?

330ishaz · 06-30-2021, 03:20 PM

It's your car and modding if fun but I'm not feeling the red tow hook or the front spoiler.

19" wheels would really improve the looks.

This is a requirement for racing. You need to be able to be towed at anytime.
I have this on my race car.

As for a street car... it has the same purpose as a loud exhaust or a big rear spoiler. To each it's own.
