Hey guys just traded my car in a few days ago and picked this one up. I am very pleased so far. I am not new to the "race" scene I guess I have a 680 HP Evo 8. But this is def. A total diff platform lol. So yes I am new to the BMW 335i scene. I do not know much about the car but I have been using my search button lol. Still a little confusing though. Btw I have a son and my e93 was way to small he just turned 1 years old and My wife got tired of sitting an inch away from the dash and I've got tired of having a slow daily driver lol.
Like I said I am new to the bmw 335i but still have some plans. I don't want to go to crazy but from what I've searched Engine wise, I'm thinking of possibly, er charge pipe with Tial BOV, cat back, dual cone intake, down pipes, intercooler and I guess a JB4 that's what I see most people using. I will be running 93 no race gas or meth. Anybody thinks I should be pretty happy with that setup? Or anything else I should add on to it? Exterior: front splitters, trunk lip, roof lip. Nothing to major But I need help I can't seem to find the splitters anywhere can anybody give me some links? All I keep finding is Pre-LCI front splitters Suspension: BC coils (I get the hook up) lol, and some wheels don't know which ones yet. Sorry for the Harry potter post I know it's to much to read. The Car fax maintenance records shows the previous owner took care of it and got the oil changes taken care of and a few other things, any recommendations on changing anything? Some stuff I should look over? Changing fluids? Anything like that? Car has 65k on it Ok f**k it let's get to a few pics lol, my Evo, my past 2008 SGM with red interior e93 328i and my new 2010 white with saddle brown interior e90 335i |

Thanks everyone. I actually took the wing off the first day I bought it lmao! She's down right now but that's what you get when RACE KOARRRRRR! Lol.
And yes I loved the e93 it was just to small for having my son, we made it work but when we take him in my car it was just hell, especially my wife loves having a big jogging stroller lol. I am very pleased with the trade in plus I got a great deal for my car and a good trade in value I couldn't pass it up |

Loved the things you did to the E93. But I totally agree it is way too impractical I'm lucky I only have to worry about myself and my girlfriend right now.
Congrats on the E90 I've always wanted something faster than the 328 for a daily also. |

Haha thanks! I am in Orlando
And thanks man I appreciate it! It was hard to let her go but like you said it was really impractical for what I needed. Even though I bought my fiancé a 2013 hyundai Santa Fe sport, when we ride in my car we're def smooshed! This is way bigger and faster lol. I'm surprised she even let me get it after all the money I dump into the Evo lol. |

Thanks VMRwheels!!
And I know!!! I was really thinking about it too! But the price they have me for my 328i as is and the price I got this one for I really didn't want to negotiate to much lol. Leaves me with room to figure out a different set up for this one. Still debating on going concave or deep dish. |

Just put my white BMS DCI on. I will be ordering my Black Cyba scoops this week, and m3 trunk lip. Soon I will be buying springs, spacers, and painting my wheels, calipers and rotors.. I'm not sure if i want to do h&r race or sports yet though. I haven't seen enough pics of Msports on them.
Trying to upload pics but my App isn't working -_- |

Just painted my calipers black. I'm debating on ordering BMW decals for them or M/// decals for them.
I will be painting the rotors this weekend being I would buy new ones but I am saving for maintanece work right now and my rotors and brakes are perfectly fine right now it's just the damn rust is killing me! The car looks great and then BAM! Ugly ass rust lol. The paint came out great. The pictures don't do it justice. I am happy I went with black |
