chewren · 10-29-2014, 10:33 AM

Bought this 135i around June, loving it so far. Car came stock except for rims.

Current mods:
Arqray quad full titanium exhaust
Ultra Racing ultimate downpipes
Gruppe-M CF Intake
JB4
Cross Strut Bar
H&R 27mm sway bar

Future mods:
Bilstein B12 ( Any inputs on this? )
M3 suspension bits
LSD

Here are some pictures,

Track day

Gruppe-M CF Intake

Bought the 1M look bumper

And some CF lip to go on

After a good wash

Dope, I always had a thing for exhaust pipes that are tipped with blue.

VMRWheels · 10-29-2014, 12:59 PM

Looking good! Love that front end

I35it · 10-29-2014, 04:29 PM

Not too sure, but it came with the fog lights.

Bilstein had a lot of problems with the shocks of their coilovers. So i wouldn't go with the B12. I would go with KW or ST coils.

ASPEC135i · 10-30-2014, 05:32 PM

Is that CF lip a specific one for replica 135i 1M bumpers? Or is the width the same as a real 1M bumper???

Loving all the mods. I personally would not have the M stripes on the front though - but that's just my opinion!

Car looks great!!!

ShocknAwe · 10-30-2014, 07:22 PM

Car looks great for the most part, nice job!

I think the exhaust and rear diffuser is my favorite part.

I got it off a local shop in here. Custom made for the 1m look bumper. About $600 usd

Weezy · 03-31-2015, 05:04 PM

Upload a clip of the exhaust note.

xerxe · 03-31-2015, 07:50 PM

This was done by the shop. I think the holder and the mesh were gutted out.
