What to do on 328xi

bgill76 · 09-04-2012, 09:18 PM

Heres my car, its all stock except window tint (not sure how much) that was already on the car when bought.

Im not trying to do too much to it. I was thinking about putting a new HU in (like kenwood or something, but i want touchscreen, nav, BT, back up cam, etc.) Changing the headlights. Not sure what else I could do.

Car looks good. Tint is really hard to guess from a pic because it depends on angle, interior color, outside lighting, etc. but my guess would be 35%. Since it is an xi it rides pretty high so maybe consider lowering it and at least getting some larger rims (18" or 19"). But first things first get rid of that dealer badge!

Oh and if I had a white car I'd plastidip the badge and definitely plastidip the front grilles to get rid of the chrome that is left.

Rims, drop, blacklines, and black grill.

What exactly are black lines? I looked them up but didn't see a difference. And plastidip will come off correct?

Plastidip comes right off as long as you apply enough coats (4-6)

Blacklines are the tail-lights in my sig. OEM part, BMW makes it.

Ok here's what I'm thinking about doing. Black Lines and angel eyes. Changing the cornering lights to 7000k and possibly the fog lights. Getting rid of the dealer sticker (lol). BMS Chip.

How would it look i put wheel spacers on?
