What are your mod plans?

Future mods will come slow... mostly cosmetics really.
Next thing I'll do to the car from this point should be to tint it. I would like to keep her closer to the stock form where possible.

In addition to window tinting, a couple of inexpensive cosmetic mods you may want to consider are:
1. replace the 3" chrome black exhaust tips with the 3.5" BMS exhaust tips

2. Replace the front grills with dual slat grills

Thanks! I didn't want Alpine white as it was a bit too flat for me. I liked the slight tone to the white to make it not too bright yet still luster.

I've always looked at the dual slat grills being specific to the M2 only and I think it'd look out of place on an M235i. But that's my opinion, but thanks for the suggestion.

Much like the CSL style trunk or GTS style spoiler is taking the design of the M235i too far out of it's original design. Mods I would consider is maybe the MP full body mod fore anything else, but those prices can get up there quickly lol.
