Hi guys, new to the bmw and m power. Just got myself an alpine white 1m waiting to collect it at the end of the month. Anyone on here from the north east Scotland?

Not the north east

Hoping to pick up a cheeky wee 116D soon though

Also Alpinweiss

I am about to do a few cosmetic mods to mine, car is 2 years old in July so its time for a little refresh. I will put some pics in the 1M section. I think there is another 1M a VO coloured one in Discovery city ?

Grills are ordered and fitted through BMW before I get the car, one thing done. Like the look of the IND products and also that Akra looks awesome

. LUX angels also make it look at lot better! Big list building up, costs a lot though!!

The grills will look brill.

As far as i can work out, the LUX angel bulbs are brilliant. That is an upgrade on my list too.

What about Eibach springs? They improve the ride / handling and the heights are bob on! I will try and find a photo of Chris ABP's AW 1M with these on for you.

Then its the debate as to fit springs on standard shocks, or go with a coilover setup.....

The Eibach springs are designed to work with the original shockabsorbers. Nice ride, brilliant handling and the height is great too. Coilovers can be harsh and noisy.

I will get a photo of Chris's for you.

Dave ABP · 03-31-2013, 03:39 AM

This is the 1M we fitted with Eibach lowering springs using original shockabsorbers.

The wheels are 19".
