Well I finally have the car back in my possession after what felt like FOREVER (ALMOST 2 MONTHS) but i have no complaints except for minor things (the color is off on the tow caps & the wrong color fog lights supposed to be 4300/4500K but somehow 6000K was used). First thing I did was go get this thing cleaned up before going to work this morning.



I'm especially happy that I went with the reflector delete





My only problem now is this the exhaust tips. They look disgusting, so I'll be giving them a good scrub when I get home or I might just go ahead & do a muffler delete & get all new tips.

Nice brother!!!!

If you want some sweet tips, although they take awhile and aren't cheap, I would recommend DIMISA tips. Or you can just go with the BMW performance exhaust. It's pricey, but it sounds amazing my friend!

Someday I'll dig up some pictures of my old 2009 328 coupe

Yea thanks, I took your advice on the bmwcca membership too. I was already looking for a used pe exhaust that I could hopefully snatch up but have had no luck so far. I even considered trying to find a pe mod for my stock exhaust but nobody has been successful in executing it yet.

Well I have something else to add to my small list of complaints. For those that say you can run a M-Sport bumper without the under tray, you are completely right but at a cost. I went over a speed bump & heard a scrap. I encounter this speed bump everyday & have never scrapped in my car so when I did i immediatley pulled over to investigate & found this.


Just give you a better idea of how much this hangs.


Maybe this was a error of the bodyshop but I highly doubt it, because the holes don't even line up. This may be fine for others running the non m-sport under tray but my mild case of OCD can not stand for it. I will be purchasing the the M-Sport tray soon with hopes that this problem is fixed.

I was able to grab these today
  • Airlift Performance Struts (30 Way Damping)
  • Hardlines By Swoops Lower Mounts
  • Fortune Auto Camber Plates
  • PowerGrid Adjustable Sway Bar End Links


They will sit in the corner next to my 5 Gallon Stainless Tank

So I've been compiling a parts list of some accessories for my air ride setup.
  • EXO MOUNT BRACKET SYSTEM
  • Accuair e-Level Height Control System Touchpad w/ Dual 480cc VIAIR Compressor
  • Air Lift Performance AWD E9x Rear Kit



I was looking into the AirLift 3H & 3P systems but I haven't had any one on one time with it.

BMWCCA membership really pays for itself!!!!!


M-Sport Undertray


I'll see if I can get away with just using the under tray & not the wheel arch cover *pics from ECS tuning*

You're welcome

Oh wow, Prestige BMW- they're my Dinan dealership. Too far for routine maintenance, but if there is an engine/ mechanical related concern, they're my go to.
Great service.

Yes, they are definitely to far for regular service but when they are the only dealership within 100 miles that has a M sport under tray in stock.... Then the drive is necessary. Didn't know they were a Dinan dealer though. The dealership is huge compared to my normal ventures (JMK & Bloomfield), didn't even get a chance to walk around to actually look at the cars. I heard they have a '99 m3 in Dakar yellow on the floor somewhere.

But I did run into (well see parked in the lot) TheBlackGT. His car is so gorgeous. Was drawn to that more than the Test drive McClaren's zooming down rt17

Well here's a little update. I installed the M-Sport under tray & it has taken care of some the drooping. So i'm guessing that the M-Sport fender linings may further fix the issue being that they are the only things I am missing. Next issue is that i may have damaged the fender bracket, because when I tried to reattach the bumper, the screw continuously spins & does not tighten. Also I think this maybe the reason why now the bumper & headlight on the driver sign seem to be way out of alignment.

Question for the Euro LCI conversion, did you need to get inner pair as well in Euro spec or is it the same?
