^ The white lettering on your tires is really cool... But then I catch a glimpse of your roundel....

Just installed e82 bumper on my e81, and went for the "135i style" without fogs. I've also added a Kercher lip, but the picture is kinda bad.

Random shot of my 1 from last month after driving from Atlanta to Knoxville, TN for Thanksgiving.

Here are the updates with just the wheels. My mechanic will be working on the springs either this weekend or next. Also putting the BMW caps on the wheels as well.

No springs yet!

Bought my '09 135i about 2 months ago - it's been a blast so far!

Here is a recent pic on the Blue Ridge Parkway from a weekend trip to Asheville, NC

The car was clean on Tuesday. Then I had to drive up to Maine for work. 500 miles later and you get what you see here.

Theres a bit of surface rust around, nothing penatrating yet. Its currently mostly limited to a few steel support brackets under the hood and the rear subframe. Im going to clean it and apply some sealant/rust converter to everything in the spring when it warms up. But overall, nothing terrible for a car in the snowbelt with 110K miles.

Great to hear! Sounds like its holding up better than my GTI that has been through 14 rochester winters with 137k miles. I got rust at the right behind the front wheels on the quarter panels on both sides.

Ohh yeah, nothing there that I can see, though theres a lot of plastic there protecting things.
