My new 135i :) (pics)
I have just purchased a 135i from overseas motors in Windsor. The overall experience there was fantastic and I could not be happier with the car. The car is just amazingly powerfull and smooth. I took it for a test drive just for the fun of it and ended up buying it because I was so impressed with the car. Anyways so far I have had the rims finished in flat black and added a CF spoiler. CF hood is on the way, more pics to come as I get the car to exactly where I want it
How has everyone elses experience been with the 135?
I think the biggest challange will be storing it over the winter lol

Congrats! I've driven quite a few 1ers:
- 128i
- 135i with BMW Performance Stage 1
- 135i with every BMW Performance part in the catalog
- 1M
Great deal of car for the money and you can make them haul ass. Although I've had lots of fun in the 1-series, I wish they were lighter and I never really warmed up to the styling.
Yours is lookin' good though

Good looking car,
the 135 / 335 / 535 are all very capable when tuned with the correct bolt ons etc. heck i just flashed my 2011 535 and gained an additional 48 WHP and 53 LB ft tq.
With the supporting bolt on mods IE: Intercooler / Catback / DP's etc... these cars get very quick.
you are already pushing E46 M3 times with a stock 135. With a tune, its a little beast.

Just say no to wrapping!!
Real CF parts have purpose.

^^ original plan was to paint the oem diffuser flat black. I still think a front lip is needed and maybe black/cf mirrors.
I agree it does need tinted windows and I would also like to black out the grills. Other than that all other mods are going to be performance based. I'm going to make this thing a monster lol

you'd really reccomend smoked tails over a CF diffuser that would tie in to his already CF Lip on the trunk lid and CF Hood he just mentioned he got in?
Smoked tails = FAIL
