By the way guys, I just ordered from Mike @ F1autohaus (Euphoria LED interior kit and LED turn signals and reverse lights)

next step: get estimates to paint OEM e90 rear aero package kit and paint repairs

Waiting for the weather to get warmer so I can install the LUX H5 angel eyes and 6k HID fog lights.

I really recommend buying from Mike @F1autohaus and Long Tran LTBMW

PM me if you have any ?'s (I learned my lesson when it comes to buying exterior parts from overseas vendors)....

Later in the spring/summer to have H&R or Eibach drops with 19" wheels..

No kidding? I live in Fairfield and work at West Chester Medical Center. I'm the dark blue 325i with a German plate up front, usually seen driving sluggishly around 6:30 every morning and like a bat outta hell at 3 o'clock, give or take.

Haha Sounds like the locals need to meet up soon... would like to see your ambergones in person.. I'd like to see other e90's with front m bumpers or hartge spoiler lips since I am undecided in what to do with the front or leave it alone. What other mods did you do?

Jerzy, a ? for you.. since you have the H&R springs, did it affect your winter driving performance? You mentioned possibly next year installing coilover suspension in the email reply, I am a noob in that area and would that affect winter driving?

My concern is that I am thinking of H&R springs or coilover suspension when I get the staggered 19" wheels (split between VMR v701's/v718's in gunmetal or jet anthracite and the Zoeb (wheeldude.com) Linea Corse Dyna in hyperblack). I plan to keep the stock 17"s to swap for the winter time.

I may take you up on the invitation.. by the way DIY installations of the blacklines was pretty easy, but my advice is to make sure they are flush on both sides before tightening them up and putting covers back on.

I posted the reply on the forum so other midwest drivers can see this and share their opinion regarding springs/coilovers and Ohio weather..

I'm down for a local meet in April as long as it's not the weekend of 4ngiefest.

'06 Arctic, I've got Blacklines, Smoke Ambergones, Tinted LED sidemarkers, muffler delete, 30% tint, matte black grilles, and in a month or so some matte or solar black V710s. Also looking to pick up LUX 5 w/ Mike@F1Autohaus' front LED signals, and hopefully some front splitters. It will never end....

You?

Hmmm... I might go too, but I haven't planned it yet since we still have almost two months left.

Marcumac,

Blacklines, OEM perf. high gloss kidney grilles, (not sure % on tint since it came with the car), license plate LEDs, received LUX 5 & matching fogs from LongTran, ordered from Mike@F1autohaus for LED Euphoria interior kit & front/sidemarker/rear LED turn signals (kept it amber colored for safety instead of xenon white since I was a test driver up in Detroit and know how the xenon white turn signals affect safety) but did get white xenons for the reverse lamps. OEM chrome tip exhausts.

Plans: OEM perf. e brake kit, shift knob and boot, euro split arm rest, rear aero package (need a good paint shop price), split between vmr v701/v718/v713 with gunmetal or jet anthracite, matte black or high gloss black exhaust tips, updated cupholders with chrome pearlescent finishers, changing knobs to current LCI look too

Undecided: M-tech front bumper/Hartge front spoiler lip/Splitters

Researching on coilovers since we have occaisional bad weather and plenty of pot holes. Don't want to beat up my kidneys but yet have the nice look of a drop while maintaining a good ride

If you guys are thinking of going, do iiitttttt. We had an absolute BLAST last year. Between the caravan going down and the actual meet, there were many laughs and epic moments to be had.

If not, at least come to Timmayfest in May in Columbus.

It is a kit, (corrected, not 6000k which would have been a bluish tint, but they are 5000k *******.com (e90 andy), if you see the ** stars, the website intentionally blocks out the screenname... it comes with ballast, HIDs, canbus.. the kit looks similarly to


Keep in mind that picture is for the BMW335i and would not work on the 06 325i. Mike or Long Tran can help with that.

I would feel HONORED to buy you your first lap dance my friend. Either in ATL or at Timmayfest. There will be a large group of us attending a "gentleman's club" Saturday night during Timmayfest.

One way or another, we will make it happen.
