Help Me Mod My New E92

Hey Everyone,

So I am planning to order a new 08 E92...should be getting here in May/June.

I want to keep the car looking classy and not ricey...but I like having it stand out as not 1 of 1 million 3-series in the tri-state area.


I was debating M-Tech kit vs. the Aero Kit that's on BMW USA (minus the nasty trunk lid spoiler).

I am going for the 230 Style 19" wheels so I am assuming nobody will say to change those.

What sort of little things can I do to stand out in a good way?

Getting Black Sapphire w/Jade Gray interior. Planning on 35 or 20% tint.

Thanks in advance for your help and not using this icon " " as your response...I tried that.

The aero kit is $1,250 (but I found a place selling for $850).

Where could I get it painted and installed perfectly besides the dealership? Whom I am sure will rip me off...no?

We have a variety of items that would help upgrade the car. I'd recommend a set of Matte Black Grills to go along with the more aggressive front end, you can also do lighting upgrades such as LED turn signals. Feel free to browse our site for ideas

i think the best is to mix and match and make it unique. some people go full m-tech or full aero and that's cool but if you pick which parts you like its more tailored to you. just my opinion.
