Hey Guys,

I just wanted to say I enjoy reading all these threads. I recently purchased a 2009 135i with a Sport Package. I'm not sure if it has the M-Sport, because I don't have the M wheels. I'm new to the BMW family and all these little mods you can do. I've read so many I don't know where to start.

I'd like to change the kidney beans to black first, but as for performance, where should I start?

Thank you!

JB+ was my first mod, but this didn't even last a month. Now I have the GIAC flash and love it!

Congrats on your new purchase!!!
We offer the matte black black and gloss black kidney grills. As far as first mods I would start with some spacers, drop in filter and a giac or jb.

Tune and wheels

what about pics? Maybe you already have aftermarket wheels.

BimmerE82 · 12-03-2011, 12:28 PM

The ///M sport package includes a black (anthricite) headliner along with the open spoke M wheels and M door sills. Post a photo of the car! Congrats.

DARK PHX · 01-08-2012, 10:44 AM

Here are some pictures of my car...I have the BMW performance grills but I have not installed them yet.

COEHSP85 · 01-08-2012, 11:05 AM

I just purchased my 135i yesterday..Same one as yours, congrats. how do you like it so far?

ken1137 · 01-08-2012, 11:07 AM

Very nice! looks familiar

Clovef · 01-08-2012, 09:33 PM

Nice car but those are not the m sport wheels. You have the 264's and the m sport wheels are 261 with the spokes actully split. Congrats and enjoy the ride.

I LOVE IT!!! Never driven anything like it. The excitement is always there.

Welcome to the family!

KingOfJericho · 01-10-2012, 04:09 PM

OP, you do not have the M Sport package. M Sport gets you the anthracite (black) headliner and you can clearly see that yours is light.

Incorrect. You meant to say "M Sport"

Yes, I've figured this out. All i have is the M-steering wheel.

BimmerE82 · 01-10-2012, 04:42 PM

Thats what I meant.

Clovef · 01-10-2012, 09:20 PM

It is a great steering wheel though.

blf1 · 01-10-2012, 09:25 PM

congrats on joining the forum. I joined recently after I purchased my 135cicfully loaded. Go slow on the mods as they con get very expensive very quickly.

1speedbike · 01-10-2012, 10:16 PM

Congrats on the car! Welcome!
