blackwagon08's Intro & Build Thread
Hello forum people.
Thought i'd start a build thread, but first a little about me, the car, and the plans for it. My name is Anthony, and i am from Newcastle. I managed to purchase a 2008 E91 335i M sport. Some of you may be familiar with the car, previously owned by donR. I was not looking for this type of car originally, but i am happy with it, and will give me something to tinker with. Plans for the car include bumping the power level up, and OEM+ type of mods inside and out. This car is not a daily driver, and just a weekend vehicle. Hope to do most of the work myself or pay mates with beer, and catch up with some 335i owners near by. Cheers, Ant. |

So first mod was some new wheels. Genuine BMW 313 19's. Not everyones cup of tea, but i have always liked them. When a set popped up for sale, with no buckles, scratches or rash, i snapped them up especially with new rubber on them too.
Met up with a few BMW owners from Newcastle today, and what a top bunch of blokes. Good opportunity to meet fellow enthusiasts. A big thankyou to Shane (DR-JEKL) for inviting me along. Picture of the new wheels on the wagon, courtesy of Alan (owner of a very clean 1M). |

Love the wheels, I have them too.
Who doesn’t like them lol? Good first mod. Get some spacers on to push them out and sit more flush |

Nice progress
I have done a DIY on the forum on installing the steering wheel if you need instructions |

Hi Anthony, good to see you're enjoying the car and looks much better with the new wheels. Was always a favorite of mine.
Look forward to seeing the future updates! |
