..and so it begins

Thrakos · 11-15-2012, 10:10 AM

I've now owned my BMW for .. a week and I just ordered black carbon fiber roundels ((all around) for $60CDN, including shipping (not bad!) from Car LED Accessories) and matte black shadow lettering ($25CDN inc shipping from Bimmian).

I think the only other changes I'll do next year are smoked LED side markers, black grilles and tint the windows.

I lasted a week before ordering mods.. that's not bad, RIGHT?

ebay has roundels for 20 and plastidip is 6-7 dollars could have had black grilles, badges, and window trim matte black for a weekend project.

Welcome, the mod bug has hit!

A week isn't bad, I actually had mods waiting at the house before I took delivery of my car haha.

I checked ebay I couldn't find it cheaper than the $60 I paid ... (problem is most charge outrageous fees to ship to .ca).

Ah yes.. I think I will plasti the grilles (trim is already black

so I lucked out); I also thought that going with factory lettering, I can't go wrong for $25

Oh it hit before I bought this bimmer

I plan to do shadowline badges as well once i put my black chrome quad tips on... should match up well with my shadowline trim and gloss grilles! The bug has begun my friend... good luck saving money!

Less than 24 hours after I signed the paperwork for mine, it was modded lol.

The itch only gets worse! Trust me I just ordered more yesterday.
