Finally its arrived!

Hi all,

Pretty new to this forum, my last post was in the wheels & tires section asking for advise. Its been a long and agonizing wait for my 2011 135i E82 in Black Sapphire to arrive in Taiwan. I bought it back in the end of August from the USA since i couldn't find a 2011 model here in Taiwan. Finally the car has arrived and i couldn't be happier. I have never seen the 135i in person nor test driven it but i knew from reviews and this forum that i can't go wrong with this purchase. Below are a few shots of the car (mind the dust and the crappy pics as they were taken in the yard with an mobile phone).

I have some mods planned out which i have been inspired from reading this forum, so thank you all!! Its taken me awhile to source the parts and get them shipped over but its all now here ready to be put on the car. Sadly, i have to wait another 3 weeks as the car has to go through some sort of inspection routine here in Taiwan before you can officially register the car and mod away!

Exterior:

1. BMW Performance Black Kidney Grills (BMW)
2. Agency Power carbon fiber front splitters (sourced from vividracing)
3. Carbon Fiber side mirrors (BMW)
4. LCI Blackline tail lights (Schmiedmann) - thanks to the many threads discussing this and the feedback i was confident enough to buy from Schmiedmann
5. BMW Performance rear spoiler (BMW)
6. Carbon fiber rear diffuser (JL motoring)
7. BBS RS-GT 18x8.5 et 38 (f) 18x9 et 45 (r) (vividracing) - wish me luck as from this thread i gather not many people have them and those who do have had to have their fender rolled plus cambers added?? Havent decided which tires to go with yet...all depends on how the wheels fit!

Interior:

1. Carbon fiber trim

Thanks guys! Had it for 2 days before sending it off for inspection, really enjoyed driving the car. Constantly trying to find excuses to leave the house to drive it!
