My F30 - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

cheukmc · 01-06-2013, 01:15 AM

Hello everyone,

First of all, I would like to thank M3post and every member here, I didn't know much about BMW until my friend introduced this awesome website to me few months ago. I spend at least 30 mins to 1 hour browsing, checking out posts, comments and photos here everyday before i go to bed.

3 weeks ago, I became a BMW owner, my first BMW ever

Here is my mod list:

Carbon fiber side mirror cover
Window tinted
Black front kidney grill (Special thanks to 1.fresh.f30.335, I followed his DIY instructions step by step and only took like 20 mins.)
19" ADV.1 5.0 with Advan AD08
KW V2 coilovers

Looks nice, how you like the ride on the KW's? Is your drop at its highest setting? Seems like that's what I am seeing on the KW's...a little to low for some cause you can't raise it up any. Still looks nice though.

Seagull · 01-06-2013, 02:47 AM

Nice picts - the car and the scenery you chose!

rxander · 01-06-2013, 03:14 AM

I like it. Great rim choice. Is it tinted brush color?

RollingLower42 · 01-06-2013, 03:50 AM

Looks clean

7 4 7 · 01-06-2013, 04:12 AM

Looks killer, i like your choice on rims

Can you plz give more inputs about the Yokohamas (Grip, ride comfort etc)

J1n · 01-06-2013, 05:41 AM

Great that the forums were able to help you. Congrats on your first BMW it's an experience!

Alexzander23 · 01-06-2013, 05:58 AM

Nice pics! Congrats on your first BMW that will be me in a couple of weeks too!!

dcg71 · 01-06-2013, 06:00 AM

Congrats man, nice 335i. Welcome to the BMW owner's club.

Personally I'm not sold on the KWs either. They look a little too dumped in the rear. If you're happy with them though, that's the main thing.

REDXREDMSPORT · 01-06-2013, 06:42 AM

Lovely to see more nice post and pictures @ HK, very great looking with black rims with white. Where was the picture taken?

F30 Black Sapphire · 01-07-2013, 02:44 AM

What to know what is your RIM? And what's th offset in the rear?

Thank you! I installed the KW's 2 days ago and with less than 200 miles only, but so far they feel really good. It's not at its highest setting, the rear only has 15mm left to drop, can't drop it any lower, I will raise it up maybe 10mm next week.

F555 · 01-07-2013, 06:06 AM

that rim is top notch

mind sharing the size & offset?
go for M-sport bumper and it's set

.

mikew2069 · 01-07-2013, 07:30 AM

Looks great! Definitely would like to know the wheel widths, offsets and tire sizes.

I love the CF covers, I've been thinking about getting them - could you post more pics?

did you dealer purchase or get them somewhere else cheaper and install yourself? I want to see closer up pics so I can see if it's "noticeable" that they are caps and not real...thx!

DrivenByE30 · 01-08-2013, 01:43 AM

Congrats ! Thanks for taking the time to share !

If you dont mind me asking, what was your previous car ?

Hi, there were taken at Kowloon peak, there is only one way up to the mountain.

Phamous · 01-09-2013, 05:38 PM

Would of look 10 times better than it is with M sport in my opinion. but so far so far with the mods.

onehungevo · 01-09-2013, 07:32 PM

Looks great. I think a front lip to be different than everyone else.

rayusaFL · 01-09-2013, 07:59 PM

I've NEVER been a big fan of black wheels but I like yours!
