Hiya. Nice colour on the car! Where did you get the corner splitters from? How much? Did they come painted? How easy were they to fit?

Cheers

Rich

The splitters are from ebay for around £80 painted (about a year ago). My colour is notoriously hard to match but they were spot on so credit to our Taiwanese brothers here. Link below of supplier:

They clip into place pretty easily with 3M tape included for that extra snug fit but i would still recommend securing it down with a couple of screws from underneath to make sure it doesn't fly of on a roundabout & driving over it at the same time - forcing you to shell out on a another pair which totally didn't happen to me.

Hope this helps

Would be nice to see it with an m3 bumper on the front

Nice, you don't see that colour often.

Looks like its in great condition. Lovely blank canvas to start modding with one of the sweetest power trains.

One thing that caught my eye was headlight washers with halogen headlights?
Been in an accident or standard on 335i?

xPETEZx · 02-22-2015, 02:57 AM

All 330/335 in e90 get headlight wash even without xenons.

That is a nice blank slate low miles 335.
Not a fan of the interior though.

texasjohn · 02-22-2015, 03:37 AM

I think it's lovely but unheated leather is the killer for me

The0pportunist · 03-05-2015, 09:16 AM

I know tyres are more functional than aesthetics but i love the tread design on my new ZZ3's so much

The0pportunist · 03-16-2015, 04:23 AM

Installed the gloss black grills yesterday

. Have had some mixed responses, some prefer the chrome but i think i prefer the black.

Am considering taking off the other black grills on the bumper & paint them gloss black too but not sure how difficult they are to take of?

The0pportunist · 05-05-2015, 03:44 AM

Gloss black roof wrap done. Not the biggest contrast but i think it looks great.
Tints to follow

Kali · 05-05-2015, 06:52 AM

Car is looking nicer with every mod. Nice and subtle. I think you should slightly tint your windows as well.

I wouldn't say granddaddy at all? I like it! Whats your interior like? I think colour coded interior trims would look smart!
