First Car, Need Help

For my first post here i might as well explain myself...

Been a fan of BMW ever since my father owned a e39 528i when I was 4. I turned this summer and my father and I decided to look for our 3rd BMW.
We bought a used 2008 328i sedan in black.Car came with premium package and cold weather package.

Only thing wrong with the car are a few paint scrapes here and there. But yesterday as I was removing the front license plate holder (I live in Indiana so these are useless to me) and I found a huge square shaped crack placed right in the middle. I was pissed. Previous owner lived in southern IN so he also had no need for this and decided to cover it up with the plate holder.

I put the plate holder back on and I'm going to keep it there for how ever long it takes me to find a front bumper i like.

I have a lot of ideas for this car for cosmetics and exterior additions but I'm not very smart when it comes to whats under the hood and where I'm looking to go with performance.

I want to get a gloss black grille for the front because I cannot stand those silver strips on the hood.

I'm also looking for a cheap M3 replica front bumper that will fit snug on the front.

That's all I'm looking for right now but I want to look for a CSL trunk and a M-tech rear diffuser for pre-lci.

As for performance, I'm completely blind and to be honest, I won't even focus anything like that until I have a job and out of high school.

I'm always browsing ebay and other sites for cheap parts but if you guys could help me and link some sites for cheap parts that would be great!

I'll post some pics of the car in a few days or so...

Thanks
Carson
