Hey all new to forum just thought Id see if any drivers meet up for small car meets etc. Id love to see more 335s and bmw drivers come together around these areas.

i wouldn't repaint. not only is it going to cost a ton of cash, but you're going to really take a chunk out of the value of your car. skinzwrap is one of the best wrap places around, and you could get a custom color or matte color that's easily reversible versus painting, which is a royal PITA.

man that is what i wanted to do to my car, but i can't justify the 4k to change the color. I would rather get some mods.

On second look, it doesn't look very stable. I would think the suspension would have to be hella strong to last longer than a year.
