My first BMW!
Hi all. I just got my first BMW. It's a 2011 335i e92 manual. I have had it about a week. I came from an 06 accord (automatic) and this car isn't even comparable! Not even 14k miles...must have been a garage queen. Drives great, just a little more tire noise than I would like, but they are run flats, so I guess that's expected.
As far as mods, I just got tinting done. When I bought it, it had tinting only on the rear windows, looked like 20% or so. I got 25% on the front doors and a strip on the windshield. I would like to do some future mods, but for now I am pretty happy with the car as is. I may wait a while, but I have some ideas brewing. I may do a gloss black wrap for the roof and possibly plastidip the wheels gloss black as well. Here are some other future mods that are on my mind in no specific order: - Tial BOV - Nokya Yellow fogs - Decklid spoiler - Exhaust (maybe HKS or Eisenhaus) - Paint brake calipers - German license plate (there is a hole where the current bracket is so I don't want to remove it) Let me know what you think of my car and what mods should come next. I also included a pic of my old ride just for fun! |

Congrats and welcome to e90post, you will find this forum VERY influential in your future mods, happy modding!
PS: Your engine is the N55, you won't need the Tial BOV

Okay, but what would you suggest to put there? I would take off the bracket completely, but there is a hole in the bumper.
That being said, what would you suggest for a more audible sound? That is what I would be going for. (Unless its too much...haha) |

You can buy bumper plugs, go to a body shop or if you're a DIY kind of guy then...
