bmw 328xi 2008 e92 mods/cosmetics?
so i was hyped up about my 07 328xi i got as a hand me down. i got it running but it died on me again. So i bought a e92 alpine white fully loaded. i already have the simon 3 cable for the aa tune ( thank god i didnt put it on my 07 ). so i plan on doing some cosmetic / performance mods. here is what i was going to do performance wise
Performance AFE intake (stage 2 SI) h&r cup kit w/ dampers all i got for now anything else you guys recommend thanks |

I would seriously consider replacing the run-flat tires with a quality performance tire like the Michelin Pilot Super Sport.
Whatever you decide to do, please don't add the Boost Addiction's differential lock down brace. Don't ask and I did warn you.

Chances are the design is fer shit, very few can properly design with LEDs at high power, both electrically and thermally. And mechanically for that matter, a car's a high vibration environment so wires and connectors take a beating, etc.
