Im with you on the list of mods, mines already debadged and it looks nice and clean. I'll be after a set of 19" CSL reps or simillar. LCI lights with LED halo upgrades, or aftermarket lights if I find a really good set (if they exist). I'll also go for a subtle drop in ride height. As for the shark fin ariels, are they imitation? I thought BMW were the 1st to have real ones. Mines real and is for sat nav etc. Might go for exhaust, but dont want anything to boy racer or loud as it will screw with the type of car this is.

I got some nice CSL style wheels from http://www.mswuk.com/ They were called Riva DTM. I got 18". They are probably not the best but they are a good price and do look good. Also the service was very good and quick.

The shark-fin is obviously real when fitted from the factory and contains the aerial(s) for the GPS and GSM/GPRS (phone). If either bluetooth or Nav or both were fitted from new then the fin was factory-fitted and housed the aerial(s).
For some bizarre reason it is possible to get fake fins that do fcuk all that you stick to the roof with tape. Why on earth anyone would want to is a moot point but they can be obtained from purveyors of stick-on shite, aka M-Style.

I'd debadge it, fit some LED Angel Eye bulbs.
Exaust I'd look at, was you planning on a twin pipe or a different single pipe? BMW did a Sport Plus Edition on the Saloon model last year and they had a Black Chrome Tailpipe tip, I thought it looked quite nice and it is a bit different. I didn't realise modern BMW's still had sharkfins even if they had nav/BT etc. |

On a black e92' lip spoiler, black grills and led angel eyes are a great start. 19 CSLs would be cool. As I have to sometimes drive up a few compacted stone tracks I couldn't lower mine...
