I’ve had the opportunity to do a wide range of car modifications over the past few years. In this video I want to talk about some of the mods that didn’t work out and I’ll offer some alternatives so you guys don’t make the same mistakes I did. As I’ve gotten older, my preferences for car modifications lean on the subtle side. Reliability and daily drivability remain my top priorities.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN 600 BMW'S TAKE OVER ATLANTIC CITY
Hey would you happen to know what software I could use to update the 'Service History' in the head unit/iDrive? I see a lot of European videos, but nothing from the US. Seems odd that the US dealerships/US market doesn't use something that was designed to replace the stamped maintenance booklets that are not digitized.
Love the wheels.
Yeah I’m out. The new Supra almost convinced me to get replace the daily with a 340 but nah
Maybe invest in speech therapy to fix that annoying lisp?
Is it the same airbag
Love the alloy wheel upgrade...I have a 2009 e90..316d ( it's a 2.0 litre diesel) 6 speed manual a great car .which I have reconditioned..full service, new centre grill, two new tyres, changed all the fluids, front suspension refresh, new battery, rear brake discs and pads..100 point inspection..new interior passenger door handle, service rest and full diagnostics..it's done 117k miles in 14 years.
What a joy to watch! Thanks!
What I've learned from watching all my friends BMW ownership. Dont.
Stock plus is the best way to go
Got the floaters on my 440i convertible and they were a snug fit on the stock wheels. swapped them out and haven't had any kind of loosening, but plenty of positive comments from everyone who's noticed them from the dealer's mechanics to my tire guy to friends and co-workers who seen them.
Basically the message is - when you get older, you understand that the stock car is perfectly balanced piece of tech. 😊
I would buy f30 and 2tr Toyota swap it it will be the most practical bmw ever
Burbles sound horrible.
oil change is the biggest scam the garages pull off, dealers or not...they charge a ridiculous amount of money, and you dont even know what goes in the engine.
I will be compared to an a**hole, but I 'm certainly not mature. I think if'm going to be normal, I would be depressed fast. There's no such thing as follow the movement + there's no more grateful than a mod that improve your car and make You happy. If you're young, you have a 328i e92 and you want a m packet, go for it! You will have a great looking car if you do things well and you can drive a nice looking cheap bmw. I think it's really sad to drive a car you don't like. I rather have a commuter or nothing at all!
Can you help me I'm thinking of buying 2012/13 bmw f30 320d
Bro can you help me out
As I got a little older, I definitely do not enjoy stiff suspension & being super low as I did when I was younger. Also getting good seats is heavily underrated.
The window buttons are in the middle around the shifter spread across 4 corners🤦♂️
OEM+ is the way imho.. as I age, I now go for comfort, subtle aesthetic changes, and functional mods..
My only comment is in the name of safety! With all that fluid splashing around you have no eye protection. Other than that awesome video.
Older 😅 you might be right there, loud pipes No the OEM M Sport pipes is A one for me. Lowering isn't for me where I live there is a lot small road kill, I saw what happened to you on your drive home from dinner. I am now looking for a M Sport bumper for my E60 because of road kill and yes she was lowered.
Im considering buying a 2013 bmw 328i but idk seems like a lot of trouble from the videos ive watched and everything ive read
WOW...youre growing up! You said you wanna make it back in one piece...can u imagine yourself saying that 10 years ago? I think not. Thats what becoming older does to you...makes u more cautious...Makes u wanna live to see the next day...
nice video...i installed on mine F31 with NBT a Linux system, no box needed, works really good with wired and wireless AA, i dont have iphone to test Carplay.
Thanks!
Thank you so much! Glad I could help!
as someone who bought a base model 4 series, I completely agree with your take on the m sport, its not worth all the trouble doing the conversion... Please to whoever reads this just save up a little extra money and get one with the factory m sport it really isn't worth this extra hassle
What does chat say about a 5 series 520d 2016 touring (80000 miles)
2 mods I regret buying cheap $1k and under coilovers, muffler delete on my e60 550i sounds good but drone sucks
Wise young man keeping an emergency fund, try saving 20% of your earnings and you will covered.
I understand a few of these as a 33 year old. I have my MK7.5 Golf R and I did a few things to it Cobb exhaust ( resonated ) IE intake PS5 Tyres and pretoria wheels Bilstein B6 shocks stage 2 tune and thats all I did. It is not loud and it still works as a daily that I occasionally take to the track. Makes 380hp and its not enough to kill you but enough to have some fun.
carbon fiber dust is like super dangerous to inhale
I tried to turn my 8th gen r18 into an si but I might as well have bought the si flat out.
When I was younger I modified my cars just like you guys. Lowered stance, body kits, lights and loud exhaust. when I got my first my first german car 11 years ago which was an E90 I started to appreciate the design language. One factor was I really can’t afford to mod out the E90 as it was costly and labour is expensive just to add some parts. then I began to appreciate BMWs own catalog that can buy you enhancements for the car. They call it BMW performance back then. After years of owning my E90, the only mod i’ve done was install an OEM 18” wheel with a different design, the rest of the money went into maintenance and detailing. When I switched cars with the F30 335i I became more of a purist, I’ve decided to order with an M sport package with the colour I like and the interior colour that I fancy. 3 years later I regretted not getting the MPPK package while ordering it so I had to retrofit the MPPK power package to get that extra oomph. I was also tempted to install the rear foglight mod that Justin was doing. In 2020, the pandemic hit and we decided to get something more practical for the current situation especially at that time where everything was uncertain, so we decided to get a base model BMW X3 30i as our daily with Xdrive so its gonna go anywhere. I didn’t mod the X3 it is all stock until today. At present, the X3 has become a daily workhorse for us and is really dependable but it wasnt as exciting as a 335i F30. We decided to get something fun and all we can afford as a second car is a new 2024 430i. We ordered it in the color combo we liked and the m sport option. Not as fast as the 440i but its enough for me. Happy Driving!
Fuk SUV bring back the wagons
still can’t get over the fact the 340 sounds like a diesel
I run flats. I don't see any issues with them. Keeping a small air compressor is a great idea.
my mechanic zip tied it for under 100
Mine came with them zip tied (used car lot) and they broke after a few months. Another option is to just buy the plastic BMW part for $8 if it ever gives you problems in the future.
I learned after buying a 2004 Audi A8L. Learn to do some of the easy stuff. Have money set aside. You’ll be ok.
Pretty sure bmws manual transmission does have a lock out it’s a push the shift lever down towards the ground hold and push into reverse …. Or maybe that’s Audi 🤣🤷♂️

On my 2005 Vitz 2sz-fe I had a pipe made to loop around the cat with switch control valve flaps, when the flaps are closed it sounds stock and I don’t get a ticket for loud exhaust, and when the flaps are open it’s loud. Before I had made my exhaust straight pipe and got tired of it and am 21, been driving for 2 years with the straight pipe, and decided to fit back the mufflers, cat and silencer, and also made a loop pipe to bypass all the filters if I wanted a loud exhaust, it did drop the power about 5HP which I’m ok with it, you can maybe do the same with your exhaust if you have some space under the FRS
