My 08 335i

Went from a 05, 545i to a 08 335i, I really like the low end torgue and the firmer steering on the 335i. Mod so far are, Tints, carbon fiber spioiler, and painted chrome windows trim.

Nice! Where'd you get the trim painted? I'm in Atlanta too.

That place looks familiar too...

Thanks of all the compliments, I got the trim paint at Pepboy, just use some fine sand paper to give the chrome a little roughness so that primer has something to grab on to.

To the OP: How did you like the 545i overall, how was the gas consumption, good or bad?

The trims around the windows will pop right off with a little tug, but I would recommend you tape around the trims on the doors and paint them, DO NOT REMOVE THEM, they are a pain to get back in.

I love my 545i, it was a 6 speed manual so gas was very decent, I went with the 335i because of the twin turbo and its easily upgradable with software.
