Installed GTS style tail lights in red on my 440i. Love them. LCI tails are nice but the aggressiveness and startup animation of the GTS ones are beautiful in my opinion.

Where did you get these? I dig them.

Installed Koni SAs and Eibach Springs on my F31. Fitment hasn’t fully settled but already looks so much better than stock.

Best part is, did the job at home with a couple buddies… turns out we destroyed one of the wheel hubs so now the car is in the shop getting fixed

Nice! I have some Eibach's waiting to be installed still, hopefully after I'm done moving this month that'll be my next mod.

Otherwise nothing too exciting for me lately (still a weird concept after my E46 days of constant repairs)... swapped my summer wheels on, changed the oil & installed a billet CTS oil filter cap.

Nice, I was just looking at that one today since I think my stock one might be leaking.

Did it as a bit of preventative maintenance for this reason even though mine wasn't leaking yet. It also looks and feels much nicer than the plastic OEM one, so worth it in my books!

Curious what the height of your garage ceiling/ joists are and do you like that lift? Difficult to install?

gave my car its one last East Coast car wash today. it’s supposed to be getting on a truck and transporting to Washington state, excited for both a much car-friendlier environment for my BMW (no more salt and winter) and a new life chapter for myself as well. hope to see some of you PNW guys in person one day.

Last few weeks, I did the following to 2015 328xi:

1. Upgraded my NBT to OEM NBT-Evo w/iDrive 6.
2. Put 6WB cluster in.
3. Swapped out my doo doo brown walnut brown trim with Anthracite trim.
4. Ordered some used 335i front 340 brakes to swap on.
5. Bought B14 Bilsteins that need to be installed.
6. Ordered VRSF charge pipe and 5" intercooler.
7. I have some Depo lights I ordered long time ago too that I need to install.
8. Installed the LED HVAC trim.
9. Swapping out my stock OEM 17 wheels to 18" BBS SR machined w/graphite accent.

I've had my car for almost 5 years, but never really got around to doing anything with it. It also only has about 55K miles on it too, I do need to track down an oil leak though.

I am debating getting an axle back exhaust from AWE and JB4 too in the near future. I am debating some other exterior mods too.
