Did a couple of cheap mods

cotmfk · 07-06-2012, 04:23 PM

I did a couple of cheap functional replacement mods on my 335 a couple weeks ago, and have just been lazy to post the pics:

The clutch pedal rubber was wearing out on mine (weird), so I had a good excuse to get aluminum pedals:

(Don't mind the dirty carpets!)

This was a simple, cheap mod that makes a bigger difference than I thought! All my "performance" model cars in the past (think M, AMG, and S/RS) have had aluminum pedals. I always thought that the 335 interior was missing some of those nice touches that come on those cars. I'll be adding more to my 335 now that I have done this mod. It helped remind me that I missed having this stuff in there!

Mod #2 was HID Fogs:

So obvious which is the old and which is the new even in full daylight! The old ones were HID "look."

This was such an easy install. And I was able to match the factory xenon headlights perfectly! Very happy with this mod.

Thanks to Pat@Sonictuning for the hookup on great prices for these mods.

I also got a split center arm rest (used). I had wanted one forever since I used to drive so much. It does make a difference on long trips, but I have seen no real usage difference on around town driving. Still worth it, I think. I thought I had a pic of this one, too, but apparently I deleted it or something. So, I'll add that to the thread later.

Nothing like a few simple mods to keep the car feeling fresh!!

Looking good, time to vacuum your cars interior now. When my car was under warranty, I told them about the rubber on the pedals fading and they replaced them for free.
