Thats complete crap by the way, I'm just trying to say something to make you feel better, if I had to wait much longer I probably would've spontaneously combusted!

Finally happy it is in don't worry about the break in. If it is a purchased car then follow the break-in period and do as ''they'' say. If it is a leased one I'd be more willing to punch it harder. Post pics as soon as you can that is one fine ride you got there!!

I believe he brought the aero kit for the e92...I suggest he should change the angel eye & fog light bulbs to bright white.

He should get the front aero lip, dpe wheels, change the bulbs to 8500k's, get a britalman exhaust, paint his grille and front mesh flat black, oh and of course lower it a bit... Ya, that's the ticket.

Is that the setup on your car?...I've been hearing much of the britalman exhaust I would love to hear it live. I've always modded my cars but I decided to not touch the 335i after the Procede...It's a very classy car I want to keep those clean lines...I'm wondering how the mesh would look on a stock 335.

Got home a little while ago, all I can say is WOW! I've been like this ----> all night! This car is unbelievable! Puts my old CL and Z28 to shame! Snapped a few pics at the dealership with the phone, gonna have to take some more tomorrow during the day:

*edit* Just to clarify, I am not an asshole, I didn't park in the handicap spot! Thats where the car was when I got there.

Yeah, OEM. I know i can order it from the dealer, but I figure if I can get it cheaper elsewhere, why not?

Comes painted. Seems like most from e90post get it from that dealer. But shop around because i may have missed someplace else that can be cheaper.

Very very nice color choice! Knowing you have that turbo will make you find excuses to go out all the time!

I felt a little better when Jesal said that the 08 allotments had been already spoken for... We couldn't get one even if we wanted too...
