That probably has more to do with my poor photography and the fact that today's pictures were taken while it was overcast.

Yeah my chihuahua could take better pictures

Seriously...I do suck at taking pictures.


I hate chihuahuas.

WHAT?!?! YOU HATE CHIHUAHUAS?!?!?!

Come on Tim, you know he's cute...





He just wants to crawl in your lap and sleep. He only barks when someone comes to the door and he loves going for car rides. He will lick you constantly but that's about it.

ttribe

Rat.

YOU'RE A DAMN RAT! Fawk you and your overpriced Nazi-mobile.

Whoa! Easy there killer. I'm just giving you a hard time.

All jokes aside, I truly do love your car and I'm very envious. I hope later in life I can afford a car of that caliber

Aero Lip ordered.

Oooooo nice, body color or cf?

Tim is there a full lip kit that includes sides and rear pieces like the A-Spec?

ttribe

Color matched.

There is an M-Tech kit that gets you an M3 front bumper, slightly expanded side skirts, and a different rear bumper. But, because you are replacing the entire front and rear bumpers, it costs serious $$$$$s. This OEM Aero Lip is a good solution and doesn't look out of place (at all) without a full M-Tech kit.

Gotcha.

So what's next after the lip?

ttribe

Dunno...paint my calipers black (I have some silver BMW decals for the front calipers)? Black exhaust tips? Tune? BMW Performance Exhaust? We'll see how the end of the year shapes up at work and how my mom's finances continue to progress to see what will be left over after I take care of both she and my regular family obligations.

Sounds like a plan

Tune FTW.

I know...$1k, though.

My buddy had a 335 coupe and a tune turned the car into a complete beast. I know his didn't cost a grand though.

well tune its the best money spend on that car... just get the custom tune not just off shelf one they not as good... i think cobb has a good stuff

do you guys know if the LSD from m3 is swapable to 335i ?

Aman

That lip looks awesome

Painting the calipers doesn't sound bad, the decal ehhhh, and black exhaust tips 50/50 i like to see the tips, black would hide them too much

civicdrivr

Id paint the mufflers but not the tips. If you do the tips, you now have two exhaust cutouts in your bumper that looks like theres no tips in them.

ttribe

I'd likely go with ESS for the tune - http://www.esstuning.com/products/ES...-Software.html

Don't know if the M3 LSD is a direct swap. I've seen some discussion of LSD for the 335, but I haven't gotten into the details.

ttribe

I was thinking about something like these - http://dimisatips.blogspot.com/


BTW, the caliper decal will something like this - http://www.ebay.com/itm/290698982278...84.m1439.l2649

They look OK on that one because the bumper has a black plastic diffuser. Your bumper is painted. It would look like this:



They also look cheap with out the rolled edges

Didnt realize that further down the page there was a silver one with those tips. Still looks like doodoo IMO.

ttribe

Yeah, I'm still on the fence. A lot of the trim on the E93 is that silver like the stock tip, so it may not make sense.

It's not great, but it's okay for a few posts here and there.

I downloaded it like 2 months ago and still haven't tried it



*Yumchacha voice on* back on topic guys





I'm with Morgan paint the mufflers, high temp flat/low gloss black, and get a different tip maybe get a non chrome tip? i know they make flat clear paint for hobby cars, don't know if they make a high temp flat/satin clear

ttribe

Aman

JMO, but the fitment looks kinda iffy on those tips. Maybe it's the camera angle.

I think it would look good if you had other black accents. Wheels, blacked out badges and trim, etc.

ttribe

Yeah, I'm kind of leaning away from the black tips the more feedback I get and the more I think about it.



BTW, these are the wheels I really like the best so far, but they are really expensive (and this is the cheapest I've found them...by far): http://www.ebay.com/itm/290769769878...=p5197.c0.m619
