I'm curious as to what type of problems on the 335i.
I myself was thinking of "upgrading" to one of them in the near future.

Posted my issues on page 1. U can Google it too... Pretty common. Some are so bad they even qualify for the Lemon Law. I shld have gotten an E46 M3 or a G37S Coupe like I wanted too but I fell in love with the 335i after learning abt how easy it was to build a monster though simple bolt ons and an ECU reflash. All that glitters ain't gold I suppose.

2nd Mod... Blacked out grill. 5 coats of PlastiDip, much easier then sanding down a chrome grill. Then 3 coats of black pearl for a shiny finish. Not a fan of matte black.

Lol. Waiting for my new tags. Wished I lived in PA or somewhere that front plates aren't required.

Could not tell you. Never even noticed it b4. 1st time ever look at it from that angle. Just checked the bolts and everything is secure. Not worried abt it, I'm trying to trade this for a wingless now and worst comes to worst it will be replaced next yr with a Hikkatadori or Strafespeed anyway. Good eye though.

Painted my headlight housing black today. Next item is definitely the lens restoration and sealer.

Whatever it is it's gone next yr anyway. I don't like the OEM wing or this. Not gonna mess with it now though. Just gonna wait til everything gets replaced then I'm getting a new paint job.

Picked up some 350Z Anniversary 18s for DIRT CHEAP with all new tires today. Gonna clean these up then powder coat them Black Pearl and rock these until the summer (Winter Set up, I hate the stock 17s).... Hopefully I find some Volks/Works by then.
