340i - sharing my mods :-)

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to share initial mods on my 340i. I have always loved the contrast between white and carbon fiber. Personally, carbon fiber mods are never enough

Mods so far:

Carbon Fiber Trunk Lip

Carbon Fiber Mirror cap replacement - M Style

Carbon Fiber Front Grille

Alpine White front reflector

Black exhaust tips (soon to be replaced by OEM Carbon M Tips)


Hope you guys enjoy it!

Cheers!

Thanks danieliskander! These grilles are awesome. They are not that easy to remove, so as long as you park in a safe place, you should be ok.

Ya, my college isn't in the best area :/ I've heard stories about emblems being stolen all the time, even stories about cars being stolen.

Sweet modifications Bro. Any other mods planned so far?

I'm following you on Inst and adding you on the forums as well.

Would you mind sharing where you got your Alpine White Painted Reflector from?

Hey OttomanTR16, thanks for the support!
I got the painted reflectors out of ebay. Not really completely satisfied with them. Wanted to save a few bucks but not worth it. I will try IND next time.
As far as new mods, these are my next ones:

- carbon fiber front lip

- carbon fiber exhaust tips

- BMS intake and JB4

- carbon fiber interior trim

And I am sure I will always come up with new mods LOL

Any suggestion, danieliskander?

That is really nice but dam that is expensive. I really like the one you saw on my thread and its a quarter of that price. There is also one that is like the M performance lip, but only the bottom half. I can't remember the name though.

You know where I can find a similar one that you have? I really like it and I agree that one from IND is quite expensive.

Thanks danielskander!

Ya, you can find it from mod bargains, JL Motoring, or RW Carbon. They are all based off the Varis Lip which is also 2k XD.
