I guess my stance is, as long as its reversible.
Your 1M has gained a good amount of notoriety with a long list of modifications. What type of mod would you say is NOT reversible?
.
Lol. I guess you have a point. I guess what I meant to say any mod that requires cutting or welding!

I always say no and change my mind straight away

I like to make it a little my own, have some KW V3's lined up with a little twist which I am yet to find out the score and get over to Germany........

Other than that, BMWP peddles, kidneys grills & carbon boot spoiler.
IND are fighting in my corner with Useless Parcel Service re black side markers which went walkies over a month ago, and I have a set of the M mats Jezz sorted coming.......

and I always uprate my brake lines and fluid as a norm, talking to my mate who works for Alcon re 6 pot callipers upfront and if we will go down that route.

So just a few things planned or thinking over.
