Plans for your 335i yet? Wishful Mods?

Curious as to what people are planning to do with the 335i mod-wise, and some things we can hope will be available for it down the road.




I don't plan to get as mod-crazy with this car (as I have in the past), but will definitely be looking for suspension components and probably a front sway bar right off the bat. I'm looking forward to Black Carbon Fiber Trim, a short shift kit, a front lip, and maybe some grill swap stuff......I ordered a Black/Red/Aluminum 335i and I plan to make it darker. Engine-wise I'm looking forward to a chip and possibly some other small items at first.

Having a larger mortgage payment has helped

I have not heard about the Quaife LSD - got any links or info?

Quaife LSD + 335i Sedan =

I gotta feeling Quaife will be running short supplies on LSD's for 335's... I emailed them to see if they will even have one available. I'll let eveyone know what they say.

They usually respond to demand very quickly.
In the G35 community it was only a matter of a few months.

I'm sure they'll need to get their hands on a dif. once the cars come out.

That's awesome...it's definitely the best ~$1500 mod for the upcoming 335i.

A chip of course. Hopefully there are a few extra pounds of boost available from those turbos! Would like the HP to at least match the current M3.

Not to depress people or anything, but wouldn't you think a first MY model will have many initial problems? I am getting an E90 soon, but wary over whether getting the 335i and its potential problems.

Back to topic, first thing for me is tint and 6000K bulbs!
