Traded my 328 e90 in a few weeks ago(black on black)... came back with a gold 335 e93. Although I love the gold color(it looks a lot better in person than pics), I can't help but feel it's a little old-people ish. So I'm trying to make it a bit more aggressive while maintaining the BMW class.
Got it bone stock, Tan/Brown wood interior, Logic7 sound, premium, 6 speed, all the goodies. Beautiful, classy looking car, but with no personal touch. Also, I like my mods to a car to be on a budget, so I keep minimal in time. In total I've put a little over $300 into this car.
So far I have added(in order of date)
1. Tinted back and rear windows. Think I'll take the front two into the shop for it as they where a lot harder to do myself. All in all it came out near perfect tinting them myself-$60(three rolls of tint)
2. Bought used BMS DCI from a forum member and popped that in-$50
3. Bought used JB3 from same forum member and popped that in-$200
4. Plasti-dipped grill, trim, and bottom grill-$6 plastidip $1 for ballons and $1 for tape
Future plans:
Get wheels powdercoated(anyone know a good place around Fayetteville, AR by any chance?
Tint front windows, possible eyebrow
Upgrade to JB4
Some performance goodies(FMIC, Downpipes first on mind)
Now for pics!
Stock(except for tint)
Blacked out grills
For the lower trim, I bought some balloons and blew them up inside, to prevent the intercooler from getting plastidipped. Worked pretty well as planned, I read about it on here somewere. Then I just popped the balloons n pulled em out!
Blacked out trim
The DCI's
BONUS: Can hear a mean turbo spool now

And last, one my favorites is the '71 240z
