Cliché: Alpine White on Coral Red LCI

Some would say the most stereotypical BMW, others would say arguably the greatest color scheme to ever grace a 3 Series...who am I to judge . At any rate, apparently I'm not getting enough attention in real life so I'm taking to the internet for more self-satisfaction.

2011 e92 335i M-Sport Package

Bought the car bone stock almost two years ago and have done a few minor things, nothing like 90% of you other shmucks that make my car look like a souped up Camry.

Mods to-date (in order of purchase)
-Gloss black roof/mirrors wrap
-Remus Race
-LTMW quad diffuser gloss black
-Cobb AP
-AG M590 Bespoke I Smoked Graphite (19x8.5 19x9.5)
-PPK Flash & Aplina TCU Flash
-High-kick CF spoiler
-VRSF CP

I'm at that point where the next mechanical mods would actually start to take some effort, which is slightly intimidating because if anything ever went wrong I'd be out of my element very fast. Would love to dabble in a high-flow catted DP but don't completely understand repercussions as far as emissions and daily driving goes.

So let me know what other completely unnecessary things you think I should waste my money on next because its been over two months since I burned a paycheck and spending money on food, alcohol, and GF only buys so much happiness. Note: Before telling me to DROP IT understand I live in downtown Chicago and almost bottom out every time I pull into my underground parking garage....

Looks great though!

Yeah ik i cant stand the old man wood. I've known I wanted to wrap for a while just am super conflicted between the carbon and some sort of brushed metal. Also hesitant to try myself...if its anything like the last screen protector i put on my phone im guaranteed bubbles.

Looks awesome, love the color combo. It's been my favorite combo ever since I first saw a BMW with it, which is why when I got a 335i also I had to get it.
Definitely wrap the wood grain, I went with CF and it looks soo much better, I still need to finish my doors and rear trim though. And man do I need to wrap my roof and mirrors, looks much more mean like that.

Nice car! Love your setup with the quads.

I had a Carbon Fiber fabric wrap on my e92 interior, was easier to work with than vinyl, had a cleaner finish, and was more forgiving. The only thing is its more labor intensive with the glue and what not.

Thanks man. Slightly expensive for standard cast wheels I agree. And big pain in the ass to buy. These took like 3 months to make...all summer months that i had to run my winters

I'll let you know when I inevitably sell them haha

I'd live a lip but feel like where I live it'd end up trashed in a year. I think anything cosmetic would be a new hood.

If anyone's had a hood painted let me know how much you paid for paint/install.

I think the hoods with the vent's sort of kill the classy look of the car unless its the m3 hood. but I really think the side skirts would make the car.

Great photos! One of my buddies has a 335is in the classic AW/CR color combo. It is pretty cliché in the BMW community, but a nice look nevertheless
