Best mods for your e92 335i?

Hi. I would be interested to hear what is the best mod you've added to your 335i. I have added a set of linea corse 818's that have transformed the looks of my car.
I will post a photo later

Quaife, then remap. Oh, and also CIC - coming from CCC, it's incredible

Is the car an SE or M Sport. If its SE then add the BMW aero front and the M Sport steering wheel. Also M Sport side skirts look that little bit more aggressive.

Whichever model it is an M3 lip spoiler is a cheap and easy mod that looks great.

What year is the car?

If you have halogen halos it may be worth upgrading the bulbs to LED.

re-map and short shifter. I think after that it will be:

downpipes
intercooler
diverter valves
cai
exhaust
quaife
suspension
uprated turbos
meth
etc...
etc...

Nice!

Love the BMWP BBK.

I'd add the M-Sport skirts if you can find some. Mine are being delivered tomorrow!

Sell it and buy an M3. Only kidding Flute 335i's are great cars. I'd have another in a heartbeat. Nice set of wheels would be my choice.

Flute; I suppose the best mods are the ones you use (or see) every time you drive the car - the Quaife is brilliant but you don't feel it most of the time. Ditto the intercooler.
So in my case, best mods are:
  • M sport steering wheel - reasonably simple DIY and I love its look and feel
  • Carbon fibre trim wrap - ditto
  • Switching away from run flats - no brainer for me
  • Evolve stage 1 remap - excellent value for the power gained
Personally I prefer to keep the external appearance stock; OK it doesn't look much different from a 320d to the untrained eye, but its handsome enough anyway and I like the "sleeper" idea.

Mike.
