120d M Sport by Metralha - Portugal

Hi there,

Decided to share my “baby bimmer” with all the fans of this nice community

Next “mods” already in my mind:

- Eibach pro kit springs.
- BMW performance brake kit.

Hope you like….

Waiting for comments / Suggestions .

tastefully done mate. have you thought of painting the mirror caps gloss black? to match the mirror mount.

do you know if the msport springs can be fitted to a non-msport 1er like mine?

I thanks for the nice words.
Yes Gloss black was an option but i decided to match instead with the front grills and the wheels ... maybe in a new re-paint.

From what i know it is possible to fit M-sport springs in the non-Msport ... some people here in Portugal change the M-sport springs for the Eibach springs and sell the "old" M springs to the people with nom Msport springs...

Nice choice on the new rims

They'll look smart once painted.
