Thank you so much for your advice. I am very new to BMW.
1. My carbon interior is in black colour. I also think that silver is very cool. ^^
2. Thx for ur advice about the LED lamp. I bought this 2nd hand BMW and i saw got insect in the tail lamp. Dunno why previous owner let the insect went into the tail lamp Thx pal for your recommendation. Terima kasih banyak banyak.
3.Walao ! i really need ur advice on the engine enhancement modz. I will quote ur advice and ask the shop what can they do for me ^^. 1000 times tq again.

Yes, AC Rims but i think must be replica. The rims come together with the car. 19 inches but i prefer smaller. I prefer 17-18 inches with thicker tyres bcoz the road condition from Sri Aman ( my home town) to other cities are quite bumpy. So many plaster ( Ko Yok ) ^^

No problem bro
What important is to enjoy your ride for the time being :top: as for other mods, you can do it step by step.. one by one! Then you will truly enjoy the feeling of pimping your ride :top:
Wait till you are bored with the carbon fibre interior then you can sell it in this forum (I think a lot of forumers or members will want to buy from you).. and get yourself a brand new set of matt silver trim. That will be after a few years!
Actually what I said regarding the performance enhancement are only a fraction of what you can do to your E46 ! Just work hard, make a lot of moolah $$$$$$$$$$$ and do it little by little

As for the rims, I don't know about you but 18" should be just fine for your car! I have a soft spot for Breyton rims... and like you, I could have easily installed 19" rims on my E60... but I chose 18" in the end due to some reasons - cheaper 18" tires , road condition (uneven, potholes road might easily dent the rims with low profile tires)!!!

Walao ! u heard the sound already @@" . I havent heard the sound yet Becoz i am staying in Sri Aman. Did u ever come to Sri Aman? The road still quite bumpy.

No man, Sri Aman is too far for me, and also the road condition not really good, will spoil my beloved UDM...
Hehe...
Planning to change your exhaust? The old one sell cheap cheap to me... hehehe....

^_^ thx ICEMAN. Perhaps i will keep the car at my home town Sri Aman coz the road condition from Sri Aman to Kuching is not that goodd . I am scared that my bumper will hit the hole .

Thx bro. I am thinking of replacing with 17 rims so that can fit a thicker tyre.

Will let u know if i plan to change the exhaust ^^. :wink:

james,
ur rear look, and side view pls

will post it when i get the photo. :wink:

 

[thule]

get 18" :top: coz with bodykit and all those carbon fibre stuff... 17" rims will look too puny on your ride
for 18" make sure the width is 8.5" ok?

thank you so much ^^. By the way, what is the benefit for width 8.5" ?

 

[thule]

pity my bro's E46 is not around or else I'd take a photo and post it here! He's on Breyton Race GTS 18" with 8.5" width
with the 8.5" width, the rims will be just right underneath the edge of your car's fender... looks absolutely fantastic bro :top: actually you can buy those with smaller width but then you have to add spacer but why waste your $$$ on spacer? Simply get those 8.5" rims and it's good to go!

 

[abuhasan]

18" x 8.5" rims
tired with 225/235 x 40 sure more cun bro
