That is what I was advised by a salesperson at BMW Melbourne. I inquired about the iS back in August....still not here yet....

I doubt the IS will come here. Did I read elsewhere that some of the parts are fitted after they arrive at the port in the US? If this is true then I doubt BMW Australia would bother with doing something similar.

I really like the LCi headlights with the LED strip.. shame its such an expensive upgrade. nice car

Nice car mate, congrats

They do look awesome in white.

PeteA · 02-01-2013, 08:08 PM

Added some new fotos all. Refer to OP -
Pending installs -
BMS Oil Catch Can N55
Precision LED interior LED set
Philips Crystal Vision headlamp indicator globes
P3 Vent Guage (In transit)

Researching -
1. New wheels + RFT delete. I'm liking the Advan RZ's very much + they come in 18x8 and 18x9 with a 5x120 PCD, so they're looking to be winners so far.
2. CDV delete
3. Tune

Anyone interested in a stock 135i exhaust? It has about 190 kilometers of use. PM if interested!

How did you manage that? Nice price.

Thanks guys.

It's a non original part, but it turned out really great. I made them an offer on ebay (240 AUS i think it was) and they took it. Even replaced it for me when it came smashed during shipping free of charge.

Hey, How do you like this product. I almost bought one last week.

Thx

PeteA · 02-01-2013, 10:28 PM

Hard to say...I only drove about 120kilometers on the car without it installed so not enough getting used to the factory setup for comparisons sake. I'd grab one regardless, its only 10 dollars and everyone seems to like it. Me included. It's fully reversible in about 10 seconds.

Black on white, always a clean look.

I purchased my Lux Angle Eyes through Stuart at BMR, easy fit and satisfies every time they come on!
