Hi All,

I've recently picked up an E85 3.0, which I absolutely love!

It is nearly all stock - and I was hoping to get some ideas for Mods I could do, but would have to be under £100 each and fairly easy for a novice to DIY.

What have you guys done or what would you recommend. So far the dash has been wrapped in Piano black and I've mostly focused on ensuring all fluids have been changed/ the car is fully serviced which has left me a bit light in the wallet!

Thanks!
 
A set of Alpina badges some Alpina seats and a knock of plate with a low number engraved on it. :wink:
 
Cars been fully serviced, sparks included. Only thing left to do is break fluid and transmission fluid (which will get done soon).

Lol - fuelled well on Shell V Power!

Stubby was done as well (good shout)
 
Wheel Spacers
New Gear Knob
Stubby
Braided Brake Hoses
New Centre Caps for the wheels
Paint the Calipers
Buy some GummiPflege for all the rubber
Check the bushes
Alignment check
 
Assuming it’s a pre-facelift, you can
1. De-French fry the rear brake lights
2. Re-wire the rear brake lights so the complete circle illuminates
3. Possibly wait until January, I have some BMW M sport numberplate surrounds I’ll let u have for a fiver plus postage
4. If in Kent, might offer to code a few things with my Carly for a bacon sarnie

... good luck
 
Find someone local with Carly and get some coding done.
Roof down on key fob
Full circle rear lights
Fog lights on with main beam (not everyone's cup of tea)
Various other bits of coding.
That's free or done for beer tokens
Back box delete if you want more sound
Cdv delete. Easy to do or will only cost a bit of labour
 
Forgive me please, but, I fail to see the attraction in having clear centre brake lights and side indicators, but I will acquiesce just so to fit in with the crowd. To mention also piano black interior, I would opt for carbon.

Rgds,
