Black 2016 340i xdrive 6MT journal
Howdy to whomever glances at this thread. Using this as a way to track what
's going on with my baby. So I bought this car in August of 2022, it had 55k miles on it and was completely stock. Since then no huge changes but a few things have changed as well as the car now having 90k miles on it as of August 2023. JB+ (turned to 80% max boost) CF wrapped interior ID6/ Apple Car Play installed Light strips for the doors BMW Logo puddle lights(front doors only) Turner Motorsport High kick spoiler M3 kidney grills M3 mirror caps I know its not much but damn I love this car. Curious what yall think of the CF wrap if anyone cares to read this far. Cheers |

I think your car is looking great 👍
Could I ask if you could post a link to where you got your strips to inhance your door lights? I also have a black F30 2014. Love the look of your carplay but unfortunately I need to go down the route of an MMI to get car play as only have the NBT next idrive. |

Bye bye orange
Decided to try my hand at swapping the orange LEDs in the cluster for white ones. There's a solid youtube video to follow and I saw my Dad do this back in 2010 with his 335i. I think its sweeeeet and highly recommend it for those who are tired of the orange. You can get any color you want, I went with cool white.
The soldering took the longest for sure but even then once I got the hang of it, it went really quickly. Link to the LEDs: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ETCT28A...p_imgToDp&th=1 Last edited by Cpark14; 10-03-2023 at 05:39 PM.. Reason: add link |

Finally got the oem msport diffuser updated. I bought a NINTE gloss black one. Upon arrival it definitely took some elbow grease to get into place and I d say the overall fitment is an 8/10. I know it’s not much but it makes a big difference to me, next up exhaust.

Finally added tips but let’s just say you get what you pay for when you go to a cheap exhaust shop. I wanted them to cut both resonators at the shop but they would only do the second one because the ‘oval’ pipe for the other resonator scared the mechanic for some reason. I’m not the happiest with fitment so I’ll be putting new tips on when I get around to removing the other resonator. Car sounds a little more meaty in the low rpm range not much change when you hit above 3.5k.

In honor of my fellow enthusiast Cytoplasm0671's3 340 hitting 50k miles, I myself rolled over 100k this past week and just want to state this car is still just as fantastic as it was when I got it at 55k miles.
Regular maintenance and this car hasn't missed a beat, also have been on a jb4 stge 1 tune for about 25k miles now. B58s are the GOAT |

Updates
Few updates, got myself some vland gts tailights and they have turned out to be pretty sweet! Never thought pics ever did them any justice compared to irl. Also came across a new M340i and had to do some side by side, wish they still made the new ones with manuals but I still lean to the F30 gen for looks either way.
