What did you last install on your 125i/128i?

1smokehouse · 08-02-2015, 05:21 PM

Finally installed...

1Hokie · 08-04-2015, 07:36 PM

Smarttop module installed! For those without comfort access, this is really worth it. One touch open and close from both remote and console. I had the opening coded previously but really wanted closing too and also not having to hold the button down and not sure if it was fully up or down without turning the car on. And yes it was confirmed on all th coding posts that without CA it won't close via remote

Finally got some new shoes for the car.

Will eventually get a wider set of wheels when I get coilovers. Really want the 17x8.5 ET40 Arc-8s...

But for now...

Sparco Pro Corsa 17x7.5 ET43 all around. Perfect fitment.

That is a nice looking wheel.

Thanks bro. I see them as a poor man's EC-7.

Super nice but so narrow!

Gray_Panther · 08-19-2015, 09:21 PM

Blackline LCI tail lights!!
I swapped the middle wire over to the next position and got the LED bars working but the other running lights still function. I wonder how I can disable them...
I have bmwhat app, i will try tomorrow to see if there is an option to code them out.

Been contemplating about getting these while Schmiedmann has them in stock. So yes, please post on the coding.

Would also like to have only the LEDs on with the DRLs and brighten with the brakes. Maybe even blink as turn signals and do away with the incandescent bulbs altogether except the reverse lights?

Gray_Panther · 08-20-2015, 08:25 PM

The coding didn't work out. I will try this weekend to take the bulbs out for the inner lights and see if the car throws any errors.

850tgul · 08-21-2015, 10:04 AM

After completely overhauling my suspension earlier this summer, I added a few visual goodies to my 128 over the past week.

Bimmian LCI look frosted headlight overlays, BMWP gloss black front grilles, and Kerscher front splitter protected with 3M Ventureshield film

JBSpeed carbon spoiler, gloss black badges, LCI blacklines, and plasti-dipped the lower portion of my 128 bumper to mimic the look of a diffuser

Had my wheel wrapped in black alcantara by Coby Wheel awhile ago but recently removed and wrapped my steering wheel trim with matching alcantara and added a matching alcantara 12:00 o'clock stripe.

Taskmaster · 08-21-2015, 02:28 PM

Geeze that is hot. It's no E90

, but it's NICE! Good job man!

F82tyler · 08-28-2015, 04:07 PM

I installed gloss black kidney grills with the M stripes. I got them from jbspeed

Taskmaster · 08-28-2015, 05:17 PM

Headers, 335is engine mount(s) center bushing, RE trans mounts, cdv delete, ZHP knob (prior) new brake and clutch fluid, other misc maintence.

Looks so hot. The 135i bumper really really makes this car look good.

Thanks! Next up is depo v2 angel eyes or the cf spoiler lip from jbspeed. I'm undecided.

The more subtle, the better.

Whoa.....lots of goodies there. Could you post feedback on the driveline bushings in the other thread? How different does it feel without the cdv?

Well, I was driving a 335i without one for a few days, so getting back to my car feels about the same, which is to say...better and smoother. Honestly, do it.

Did you replace both engine mounts or just the unique one?
