Build ... what are you going to do when they come for you
What's up guys
I "recently" purchased a sparkling graphite metallic 335i 2007 (August 2013). The car has the auto transmission with paddles, rolled fenders and everything but the Navi. I immediately started with some mods … so I got OEM M3 mirrors then started blacking out everything, added a CF trunk lip, did my interior in real CF (so much work) and some other stuff. Im not sure if I need a Chargepipe with BOV and an Oil cooler what do you guys say? I hope to continue my build with the following: performance 1. COBB ~ 600$ 2. Vanguard Exhaust ~1500$ 3. High Flow Filter ~30$ 4. DCI ~ ?? 5. Charge pipe/BOV ~ ?? 6. FMIC in progress 7. AR Downpipes in progress 8. KW v1 in progress interior 1. Carbon trim done 2. LED Kit done exterior 1. m-tech rear bumper 400$ 2. DD rear quad diffuser ~1000$ 3. M3 front bumper 400$ 4. Black Matte wheels done 5. M3 side mirrors done 6. Carbon fiber Fuel Door done 7. Exotic Tuning spoiler done

Cars too stock for red accents. Hopefully you'll make it aggressive enough to pull off the look lol

Good start though the coils and new front bumper(with lip) will get you much more aggressive, and the m-tech rear is much nicer than stock. |

The OEM e90/e92 front fenders cannot be rolled due to their plastic construction, you could most likely fabricate some widebody fenders but it will be A LOT of work and you would need to fabricate other pieces to fit the new fenders as well. Here is an example of a 335i widebody conversion if you are seriously interested in getting the widest wheels in the front without doing damage. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=772683 |

Of course those are rear tires specs ... I wasn't talking about big tires front. The fenders are already rolled no problem at all but I want them wide. They are going to get cut off and extended in a professional body shop lol

Good luck with the fender modification though, I am very interested in seeing the results. Some of these widebody conversions look really clean. |

I can't wait til you add more mods, subscribed . I also agree with those who mentioned about the red accent, you definitely need a more agressive look to pull it off. But then again you're still adding more mods.
As far as intake, I'd go for Mr. 5 style intake. Better than DCI and still maintain that OEM look. I personally have it and I honestly think it looks much better than DCI. Theres a guy selling his mr.5 intake for $100 right now in the marketplace section. Cobb ap v2 can be had for $450-500 pre owned. Oil catch can is a must have if u go hard on your car. For cosmetic, a LCI tail light can really refresh the look of your car greatly. And perhaps some oss style headlights. You seriously can diy your headlights for much cheaper, there's a diy on here and YouTube that can walk you through it. If u want to have the brightest angel eyes under direct sun, this is the best way to go. There's no led bulb option out there that can come close, even the highly regarded lux v4. |

Yeah i already have the offer from OSS and that is some expensive stuff lol. I totally agree I want to have that aggressive look ... But I like the look of DCI but I will take a look at your suggestion for sure. I'm thinking about blacking the lights out myself looks like a good DIY.
Thank y'all for the feedback so far
