Just installed a JB3 and I'm loving it. Ended up being quite expensive though because the stock runflats would no longer hodl the power so I had to order a new set of Yokohama Advan AD08, not that I'm complaining :P

I probably won't do much else to the car seeing as it's a lease and as of now I have now plans to buy it out. If I buy it out I'll probably change the suspension, which IMO is the car's major weak point.

Several things added by my wife as a birthday present at the dealer before I picked it up - CF mirror covers & black kidneys.

If it does not improve the performance then it's not a mod.

Why do people insist on taking a great car like a 1 series and pimping it out.

That's what Cadillacs are for.

And BTW, true modding involves making it so that no one really notices.

Strongly agree

My first mod was black grills as soon as I got the car home.
Then Breyton's installed about a week later. Not much out there for the N55 just yet, so exhaust and suspension will be next.
3.5 weeks, 1000 miles so far..... Love this thing...
