Where did you get them from as i am also from the UK.

Some people paint them body colour which is nice too, but i just wanted black and white look. Yes in flesh your right they notice more but yes its subtle.....contact Chris Say Lee with 235 recommended him...no other dealer beats his costs Chris.Davidson at benhambmw.co.uk

I've just got an Estoril Blue M235i and looking at various M Performance packages.
I'm divided on the rear diffuser. Have you ever seen one in the shadow grey, like the original colour scheme?
Also is that the full M Performance exhaust or just the tip extensions?

[Luv2]

Congrats !
Nice tasteful mods. Thinking of doing similar ones, one day.

Hey Lee... Thanks for the advice.... Just added the full outside pack to my order but to trim costs I dropped the rear diffuser and chrome tailpipes. Thought I could always put them on at a later date. Hoping to pick her up early next week.

Let us know when you get your 19s on.... Any other parts you were thinking or would recommend? You adding any interior parts?

no but did consider that, as the grey a nice colour. but in the end i wanted it all matt black matching front back and side skirts...but post pics if you do it. But i wouldnt go body colour. this morning was following a bog standard 2 series they look so plain and they have the colour coded rear end, feel the 235 colour coded just looks wrong and makes it look like a base model. Go for contrast.

which 19s you getting i love the 624 but they cant be refurbed due to recessed polished spokes. I like the 405s too these can be refurbed.

Where you getting your wheels from and cost.

[mwhalley]

Will do, I'm leaning towards leaving the stock rear, on the 2016 model with the blue and grey it looks pretty good anyway.

I'd go for 405s for sure with the wheels. They stand out just that little bit more for me.

Hi Lee,

Where did you get those mirrors from? And when you say easy to fit, are we talking over clips or simple replacement or some thing different?

Do you mind saying how much they were?

[leeadam]

english company..they are full mirror cover replacements. took 10 min to fit easy.

I've always loved the 405Ms ... I did a scout and found that Cotswold BMW did a really good price... Managed to get the full external kit for £3600 or the wheels and carbon mirrors/kidney grills for £2600. (They would also give a decent amount back for the old ones)

My local dealer was good enough to match it though!!!
