Any plans for Spring Projects on your D?

GreekboyD · 02-05-2013, 02:01 PM

I know winter is still here but we are getting closer to spring with each day that passes. Is anyone planning something new for their D this spring? New tires? New rims? JBD? Suspension work? Etc?

Tell us what you're up to!

got some new(used) Avant Garde M355 wheels coming for my Black Sapphire 335d!

jiaan13 · 02-05-2013, 03:38 PM

Foglight switch mod!

anielsen71 · 02-05-2013, 03:43 PM

Yep......M3 replica front, Bilstein ajustable dampers and maybe a 4 pot M3 look-alike exhaust.

At least thats my plans.....

335dFan · 02-05-2013, 03:50 PM

Suspension, JBD, wheels, lastly minor cosmetics. In that order.

Where are you getting the M3 replica front? Are you replacing the base front or M-Sports. Also are you Pre-LCI or LCI?

anielsen71 · 02-05-2013, 03:57 PM

It's a base front-bumper and pre-LCI
I've found a reseller in the german ebay where I can get the M3 replica front-bumper

Often I wish I were back in Deutschland where I could drive my 335d at a more appropriate velocity. Oh well.

Here is my list:
- JBD
- Spacers 15mm-12mm
- Gloss Black Kidney Grilles
- Paint my 193M in Gloss black (still thinking about it inspired by 335dM)
- Do something with my reflectors

Where are you buying the grilles? Do they sell matte black too?

I am going to get them from the dealership. $150 for the pair. I am in Canada, otherwise I would get it from Tischer (getbmwparts.com)

cssnms · 02-05-2013, 04:31 PM

I am not sure yet, but I have a couple of things in mind.

Dare I say I am getting to a point where I am not sure I want to put anymore money into my car.

Haha! I'll be at your point after next year man.

Getting my final two pieces of the M3 suspension parts is what inspired this topic for me. I'm looking to do a complete suspension overhaul in March with the following M3 pieces. The Megan Racing toe arms are the only non-M3 upgrade:

Front sway bar

Front lower wishbone/control arm (L)

Front lower wishbone/control arm (R)

Front tension strut (L)

Front tension strut (R)

Adjustable front sway bar end links

Rear sway bar

Rear subframe bushings - (front, 2X)
- (rear, 2X)

Rear guide rod (L)

Rear guide rod (R)

Rear upper link/wishbone (L)

Rear upper link/wishbone (R)

Adjustable rear sway bar end links

Megan Racing toe arms

Well I just ordered by JBD, can't wait till I get it. I also ordered a gloss black 335d badge. Once bimmian.com has the space grey reflectors in stock I'll grab a pair, now I just need to find a place that will do my summer wheels.
