Hey!

Bought my E92 330D in December. Only changed the wheels to 19s and done the odd bit here and there (gloss grills and boot lip) waiting to get it lower. Really good to see people up in the north east!

Picture was taken before the grills were done.

NEWBIE

Hi All,

Got a 09 e92 325d, had it 6 months. Getting ready to do a full LCI conversion so going to be picking everyones brains on coding and fitting. Just picked up LCI front and rear lights (after selling a kidney!) and got my LCI bonnet and bumper ready to go. Will try and document the conversion as best I can but Im pretty useless when it comes to keeping up to date...

E90 330i M Sport Auto

Hi all, just recently bought a E90 330i M Sport, pre LCI with Auto transmission. Wanted a nice smooth petrol to sit on the motorway and this does it perfectly.

Colour is Silver with black leather, will get some pics up.

Looking to keep it fairly standard, want to improve the sound system as its the base model with no tweeters.

Also looking to fit performance BMW exhaust, and LCI halogen Angels.

Only changes so far are changing the tyres for some Goodyear Eagle Asymmetrics.

Thanks

Hello... planned mods!! advice..?

Hi guys!

My names Gurps from Devon/Cornwall.....
I have just bought my first BMW. I have had it for a week now, and I am enjoying every bit of it!
After owning 2 A3's, a golf and an avensis.... I can say hands down that this BMW is by far the nicest to own and drive!

I have a few plans for the car, and would love to get some advice from you guys... but first....

Details:
---------------
2011. BMW E92 320d COUPE -
M-SPORT -
White -
19" alloys
Full red leather interior, full electrics! LTI facelifted.
No mods (as of yet).


My plans
-------------------
Buy a sub for the boot to hook up to the standard professional audio system
Black painted roof
black windscreen mirrors
POssibly black painted alloys
black painted grille surround
Personal number plate
floodlight, footwells, interior lighting - bulb changes to white

If anybody knows where I can get interior light bulbs, i would really appreciate it! Not too sure how it works with the fitting and difficulty of these things, but would really appreciate advice and help!


Also looking to get the subwoofer fitted some point this week... not sure how much it would cost, as im assuming it would just be a plug and play thing + wiring?? FYI... it is a low output amp that came with the JBL subwoofer.

Anyway... pics are below.. let me know what you think.

Hi all,

Just bought a 09 E92 330d M-Sport with all the trimmings and v pleased with it.

Very keen to upgrade lights (horizon LEDs?)
Would like coding done to key for auto mirrors up etc
Brakes and discs upgrade
Most of all looking for advice on the satnav upgrade to 7digits.. Been quoted 280 at dealer which seems a little to much...

Any advice on the above is very welcome.

Will be doing some bits to it and will prob open thread.

I live in Oxford so any coders or known quality mechanics is good to know. Got the service pack but doesn't cover pads and perishables etc...

Previously owned a modded Mazda 6 mps and would like to get it up to that kinda power (was running at 320+ HP)

Cheers and look forward to making contributions

I've just returned to the BMW fold after collecting my '07 330i M Sport Touring this evening. Prior to the last two diesel Skodas, I had a 130i for a year and a half and before that a Mini Cooper S JCW.

Great drive home this evening cross country through Wiltshire to Berkshire, the E91 steering is awesome compared to my last car!

Hi everyone,

I'm a 21 year old who has decided that I wasn't paying enough for car insurance so have just bought an approved used 2007 E91 320i M-Sport in Space Grey to replace my 1.2 clio. Looking forward to BMW ownership, unfortunately due to a lack of time and the car being in Leicester with me being down in Goodwood working for RR in my year out from uni, I can't pick it up til the Silverstone classic weekend.....

Pics once I get the Car, since copying them from the BMW website isn't my style.

Plans for it include a set of BBS CK or OEM Style 216's, but to keep it all low key for now as I'd like to keep my insurance the correct side of four figures

Another newbie saying ello.

Had my N54 E93 for a couple of weeks and intended to keep it standard but I've already got the itch because I'm finding it a bit slow and it sounds pretty rubbish compared to what I've been driving (still driving).

Already researching JB4 and checking out the classifieds on here for secondhand exhaust.

Great forum btw!
