First time post ( Few Mods )

I have been admiring all of your cars for a while now, so I thought I would post a few pictures of mine. They are not pro but hopefully in the near future I will get some good ones done. I need to paint the reflectors and put on a front lip, but all in good time.

The car is a 535 m sport 6 speed manual, with cognac interior.

Mods so far are
H & R springs
JB4 stage 2
M Performance spoiler
M performance defuser
M performance rocker stickers
Painted callipers
Megan Exhaust
Catless down pipes
20" BC Forged Rims
Black Gills
BMS Intake
Attached Images

I am confused. Is the car really a 335? It looks so much like a F10, I thought it was an F10....

I got it off of ebay.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kspeed-BMW-F...c4&vxp=mtr


It came in silver so I had to paint it black. It was very easy and, it turned out very well in my opinion. It came with a stencil to line it up and it was no problem to install. I used dental floss to get the 335 off. I am not sure why people do or don't like it, but I love it. I had a Jetta when I was younger, and I put a BORA emblem on the back because that is what it was called in Europe.

Thank you all for the complements.

Did you have any issues lowering it with the sensors? I wanted to lower my wife's 535i but the tech guy pointed out the leveling actuators and said they could burn out?

First off I am no professional, so all of this response is from my opinion.

To be honest I have had no issues at all. I got my car lowered at a shop in Ontario Canada ( RPM automotive )who has lowered at least 30 F10's 535/550/M5 and the owner told me that he has never had an issue. He showed me pictures of many different springs on many f10's so I believed him when he assured me there would be no issues.

The car rides much better and the comfort of the ride is the same as stock, or I should say hardly a noticeable difference from stock. My wife didn't know it was lowered until I told her 2 months ago.

If your considering it!!! I would recommend it.
