I like the side skirts also and will be doing them in the spring. Somehow they Lessen the pot belly affect the sides of the 1's have, in my eye.
They'll be my only exterior mods besides the tint and perf kidney grills.

It's nice when other people spend your money

What's your budget? What do you want to have? HP? Handling? Exterior go fast body parts?

Cobb is the easiest tune to use. You program via the ODB II port, no other equipment is required to be installed. When you want to take the car to the dealer, reconnect the Cobb, choose uninstall, and wait about 20 minutes for it to be flashed back to stock. Highly recommend.

* Window tint (sunroof too).

* Slotted/drilled rotors.

Can't wait to see pics of whatever you decide.

i would definitely recommend you get a JB4 chip from burger tuning! for under $500 you'll add about 100whp to a completely stock car...well i know it's about 100whp to a stock 335 and jumps the boost up from 8-9psi stock to 13-16 depending on what map you have it on. Definitely look into the JB4 i guarantee you'll want to get it! it's also very easy to install

I've done lots of reading and there's simply lots of mixed opinions. so based on my research and I've owned my 135i for almost two months and found the mods that I have a perfect starer combo .

I have BMS DCI and also have their Drop in filters and Cyba scoops and for some reason it seems to deliver smoother power on mid and top end of the RPM .( I run them both periodically ) FMIC is a must , I was loosing major power due to heat from the stock IC which is a POS IMO Specially running higher boost . The VRSF 7" is great and can definitely keep things cool at all conditions, optioned for the 7" in case I go big down the road (5" ones will do just fine ) Jb4 is a no brainer and You will simply love it once you get it figure out . Also running stock exhaust and have no plans on changing it .
DP & Tires are next on my list so take it for what you will .

Depends on your budget. I spent $14K on mine and about $6K on my 335i. GL
