Thanks! I have yet to pull the trigger on upgrading the lights... it was up there on my mods list, but after taking the hit for the rims/tires, I will have to wait on some cash.

Yah. The only real option besides retrofitting OEM Xenons would be to go through BavX and have them custom build you DEPOs with their LS1 rings. (They can do this now..)

By the way, no thread jacking here, but I still have the stock (m-sport) struts/shocks/sway from the 135i I used to own (2011 model) since I installed the performance suspension on that car and traded it in that way. Given that the springs are always specific to the car packages, this is a good upgrade for those with a 128i looking to upgrade to m-sport. All that's needed are the m-sport springs specific for the car. |

As far as daily driving I prefer the straight line 6 and the HP difference doesn't bother me too much.
