How do you like the 1m look with fogs. Good quality? Does it over power the cars lines?

Otherwise looks hot

Thanks I think it works well but I think the side skirts could do with being changed but I'm not sure it may be it just needs some new wheels and I think the fogs have grown on me I may tint them black so there more hidden

Looks quite good. Those fogs actually make this acceptable for a non-M

I think the fogs tinted would look good. What brand bumper is it? It looks great on your 1, also about how much lower is it than the OEM bumper?

Erm not sure on brand it was a eBay one :') but the quality is really good! Abs too. And it's a lot lower as I now have to think twice about speed bumps before I could go over any with out scraping but now I don't even think about it! Can only just fit my fist under it!

How much lower did the car go on the springs? I want to get a 1M replica bumper and I have coilovers so I'm trying to tell which one would be best

MPG?

I imagine your fuel economy must be impressive.
In Canada (& likely USA) we are now getting a 328d. Its a 2 lire diesel with 181hp and 280lb-ft of torque at 1750 rpm.
In a long road test, the car delivered 5.1L/100 ( 53.4mp Imp gallon) at 120kph (75mph). Overall test average was 7.8L/100 (36.2 mp Imp gallon)
BMW official figures are 4.5L/100 hwy and 6.5L/100 city (62.7 & 43.4) most likely taken at 100 kph (61 mph).
Transmission is 8 speed automatic. Testers found car had excellent performance. Only dis-like about the whole car was the complex navigation system and the Eco Pro which they turned off.
Four or five years ago I drove a 335d and was hugely impressed.

Really nice car! What size are your rims? The width, ET and size? What is your tire size? Looking for rims for my BMW 123d E82. Have you lowered your car?
