Getting my mod on

How fun is modding. I had my e90 just right...now tweaking my f30 so far:

On order - will be installing next week!

442m 19" summer setup
Color match side markers
Phillips silver vision bulbs (egg yolk be gone)
Carbon fiber mirror covers (autotecknic)
Carbon fiber rear spoiler (oem $389 shipped)
Black BMW floor mats (bad reviews on the m perf ones)
Dinan suspension

Soon: 35% pinnacle
mppk!

Anything else???

Thats what I thought too, but the car looked a lot better with spacers on than without.

And strangely, my Msport 435 now has 20" wheels no drop and while I have KW V2 in my trunk ready to install, I almost like the 1-2 finger gap! At least for the 4, the stock suspension is pretty low.

Wow, 1-2 fingers is exceptional from the factory, given how aggressively the F3x is raked, not even sure you need the coils from an aesthetic point of view (although that is highly subjective ).

Most cars these days are really rocking the 4x4 look from the factory with 4-5 fingers in there.
