More maintenance than mod, first was a K&N drop in filter. Tint upcoming, debating between lighter 30% or 20-15%. Don't need crazy tint, just hate feeling like I'm driving a glass box.

Hey guys, I'm about to do a major body upgrade to my E90 and I got an OEM-style CF hood and CSL trunk I'm going to order and I really wanted to know if the OEM parts had to be modified in any way to prevent damage to the CF. I'm trying to do a complete install with a complete repaint if possible by May. Thanks for the info!!!

For some reason I impulsed bought a $500 DINAN throttle body I saw on ebay. "What a deal" I thought to myself as I pushed the buy it now button. Intake, exhaust, and ecu flash are right around the corner. Really gonna max out this N52, squeeze all the ponies I can out of her. That was a year and a half ago. Still waiting on the rest...

I had the dealer de-badge before I took delivery

Br0okLYnzSouLJa · 03-17-2013, 09:01 PM

First mod were painted reflectors. In between were alpine HIDs, fog HIDs, tints, clarion dash and L7 subwoofer with amp. Also went with an Injen dual intake. Will be mounting Michelin Super Sport tires on M6 replicas next week. JB4 is on its way over to me as well.

MiStR StEvO · 03-17-2013, 10:39 PM

First mod: OEM BMW Performance Grills
Last mod: KW V1

bimmerburd · 03-17-2013, 10:47 PM

Put in a brow tint across the wid shield. Man, it really makes a difference. Going for a clear bra, eye brows on the headlights and black out the kidney grill next. Nice pics. really love the black wheels, I have the same Space Grey and glad I saw yours. I think I will go black on the wheels too.

Nafy · 03-17-2013, 11:53 PM

First mod: zhp shift knob, worth it, much heavier and shorter than stock, hand feels much more comfortable resting on it, shifting feels more solid than the hollow stock knob

RickE24 · 03-18-2013, 01:52 PM

My first mod will be Lux 5.2 since one of my angel eyes went out, then oem black kidney grill

+1 With the original shift nob, I felt like I was shifting a truck. The shorter shifter is much better.
