Finally! my 1st BMW!

Hey guys,

Got myself a 07 E92 335 space grey. Picking it up on tuesday. I found it at the automall in Kowloon bay, and when they took it to bmw for checkup they did the hpfp recall. They dont offer the 100k / 10 year warranty here in hk thou. Would this be a problem?

My first mod right now being discussed will be wheels/suspension. 19" black rims and looking at KW street comfort, V series and PSS 10.

I was sold on the SCs untill i found out you cant drop the car much. So what would you guys recommend? For comfort and being able to slam the car a bit.

Also, will be doing black grills and black trim. Any recos on where to do this? Do most just paint the grills or do you replace them?

And for angel eyes? anyone with OSS lighting out here? those RGBs look pretty cool . or just go for the normal lightbulb?

Thx in advance for all the help...

Welcome to the Forum Ken and congratulations on popping your BMW Cherry!
I myself have the PSS10s on my E90 LCI and I enjoy it (Setting at 1 now, just installed it less than a week ago).

Read through the forum, lots of useful tips and recommendations. At the end of the day, it's what you feel comfortable with.

Hope to see you at one of our meets soon.

I have tried sachs, pss10 and kw v3, ended up with the v3s as they are the balanced set imo

My recomm would be 19' BBS rim (RG-R) + michellin pss tyre. Bilstein or KW or AP suspension. AP racing/brembo (if u wanna burn a bit more money) 6pot front.(no need for rear). Exhaust wise, i would choose either eisenmann or akrapovic slip-on (titanium though) if you have budget, can try the crazy evolution full titanium.
