[SC04OCT]

Hello, everyone. I didn't realise there was a UK section on here, so I'll probably post stuff in here from now on.

This thread is mainly just to keep track of mods and stuff.

I've had my BMW for a week now (after driving my 55 plate 1.4 litre Corsa for 5 years) and I've loved every second of it. Here are some pictures (I haven't done anything to it yet).

My old Corsa and my BMW.

Finally got her home

Random shots





I plan to not mod it that much. Subtle mods, more than anything else. First thing on my list is black kidney grilles. Can anyone recommend/link me to the ideal ones? There seems to be a few variations. Also I am waiting for my new private plate to come through. It's SC04 OCT (My name is Scott and my DOB is 4th Oct)

Thank you for looking!

(ps. How do I stop the images being huge?)

It's screen cleaner! Haha. Normally a bottle of Coke or Irn Bru sits in there.

Very nice! As for kidney grilles, you can buy the BMW Performance grilles if you want good quality ones - they cost about 80 quid or so from BMW directly but I am sure Phil over at Cotsworld can give you a discount, just drop him a PM.

If I were you, I'd also try to source a split-folding armrest... it is so much better for driving as you can easily rest your arm and in my opinion it makes the cabin look more premium.

Congrats on the Car! "Upgrade" doesn't even describe what I've just seen!

Very nice.

Is the shot in the lay-by Harlington by any chance? Looks like my route home :P

FYI I am about to take my kidney grills of my E92 LCI. PM if interested.

Thanks,
Craig

Thanks for the kind comments, guys

Might get some hate for this one, but I put lego dust caps on lol

[Pp4811]

Well I for one quite like them. Better than some caps you see. Lol.

Is that an N57 (post an engine shot if unsure)? If it is; it'll remap well. Somewhere between 280 & 300bhp dependent on who you speak to.

It's a 2012 so I assume it's an N57?

Post an engine shot Buddy. It should be if it's a 2012.

Couple of updates:

Private plate went on and I got the gloss black grilles fitted today.
