Matuag's E90 335i | Build Thread

Newbie here...new to e90, 1st Thread, AND 1st BMW

I love seeing everyone's mods and have gotten so many good idea and recommendations from here, that I wanted to pitch in... or at the least get some ideas!

Picked up a 2010 335i w M-sport - Space Grey w/ Saddle Brown interior. Got it two weeks ago from Hilson Luxury Motors in Marietta. I had been looking off and on for over a year in Philly and then in Georgia, and the used car dealer market is enough to make a guy want to buy a Schwinn and call it a day Ryan over at Hilson just seemed like a good guy w clean cars, w/o the pushy upsale bull.

First 2 pics are at Hilson. 3rd is Wash at Mikaels Auto Spa (not impressed...need to find better wash). Rest are after wash.

Below is a list of what i've done, what I want to do soon, and what i'm considering (no performance mods till i'm out of warranty).

Done:
*PPI - (Technically post bc i'm crazy) - @ SoloMotosports
*Tint - 3m Color Stable 35 - @ The Tint Guys
*Phone Mount
*Blackberry Music Gateway for Bluetooth Audio

ToDo:
*Tint - Front - 3m Crystalline 70 - Tint Guys - I can feel the heat coming in
*Powdercoat Wheels - Gunmetal/Dark Grey - ~@Metro Wheels
*Lux H8 v4 - Still reading up on the flicker before i decide - @Lux
*Color Matched Grill w Black slats - @???
*Black/Grey Roundels Overlay - @BimmerZone/Bimmian???
*Sunglasses Holder - @Bimmian - Serious lack of interior storage in this car

WishList:
*JB4
*Downpipe
*Exhaust
*Sprint Booster Throttle Remap (not a fan of the electric throttle, coming from an 01 honda)
*Blowoff valve/Intercooler/Filters????

Thanks all! I know its very stock, this is going to be an ongoing project. Next is likely wheels & grills (want to get OEM painted outside w black slats... hard to find).

After the wash I noticed at least 10 chips in the hood (the downfall of buying a Northern car) Let me know if any Atlanta folks have a good touchup/paint/detail guy!

Welcome, and congrats! Looks sick, but wow do those yellow halos ruin it IMO.

Edit: HAND WASHING FTW
