328xi Tasman Green

LiKiiiiiD · 03-26-2013, 01:26 PM

Well, I love my color, and not a big fan of green but I think you guys will like it. New to forums, have only had this for less than a year. It was special ordered from Germany, got it at Rallye.

I'll try to get a pic of it in the sun, the color completely changes.
What should I do? I was thinking tints, and an indash nav system. Can someone recommend wheels that aren't expensive or are mine fine? Balling on a budget at the moment. Do coil overs affect the drive if I were to get em? What would you guys do?!!!

Absolutely beautiful color and rare

. I have never seen that color.
Yes coilovers will make the ride stiffer than stock, but then again it will make the car better to drive when cornering etc.

Maybe some VMR wheels or if you find some nice wheels used. I would remove that xdrive text from fender and cover those orange reflectors. Lowering and wheels is good start.

Thanks =] How would I cover the reflectors, I don't know what color would go with the paint.

I guess you would need to buy those covers and get them painted to your car color.I don't know where you can get those covers, because i don't have those on my car, so i never had that problem.

wdeerfield · 03-26-2013, 02:13 PM

You can order Colored Matched Reflectors from bimmian or many other sponsors on here. definitely worth the $75 for them. For wheels, check out the VMR and Avant Garde offerings. Id also check out the m3 trunk lip on ebay for $62 painted. With that color, i dont think i would black the grill.

Nice color

Side note: how was rallye? they seem to have a lot of CPOs and i was going to look to them for my f10 purchase.

kdbryce · 03-26-2013, 02:22 PM

i like it.

an old literature professor of mine, also a huge bmw aficionado, bought his wife an e91 in that color... you don't see too many of them around

.fLip. · 03-26-2013, 03:07 PM

i like that color a lot. im a big fan of shades of green. (my e90 is actually my first car that wasnt a shade of green )

Alen E90 · 03-26-2013, 03:31 PM

WOW, that is such a gorgeous color

AGood22 · 03-26-2013, 03:41 PM

Rare color, love it!

Karbon · 03-26-2013, 03:45 PM

Nice color!
I also don't think you should black out the kidney grills.

Seconded on the $62 M3 spoiler from eBay. Painted and shipped at the price you can't go wrong! I put one on mine and it's perfect.

As for in-dash Nav system, honestly there's no cheap way to do that.
Best bet is to get a good mount for your smart phone (assuming you have one) and just mount it above the vents.

Otherwise I would check out Dynavin. Here's a link to your cars system.

They make some real quality stuff, though it's obviously more expensive.

It 29.5 Last April, with 4,500 miles. Some girl was the previous owner and the steering was too stiff for her

. I found their prices to be the best compared to others when shopping around. Thanks

wow never seen that color before, very unique!

I've only seen one other in this color in Manhattan, one up'd me though. It was a 335 sedan

inline6ix · 03-26-2013, 03:50 PM

Awesome, love that shade of green. I wish you could get that color with the M-Sport package.

Of course, I may be biased after owning multiple green BMWs.

What do you think about black wheels with black spoiler? Thanks =] I don't know what to do with this color =x

SE3P_to_E90 · 03-26-2013, 03:52 PM

congrats! color is great... i hate green cars, but this one is a stunner!

As for your mods, do what makes you happy. Don't let anyone dictate what you put on your car - obviously. If you like it, who cares what anyone else thinks...

My favorite mod so far has been my steering wheel upgrade. I recently upgraded from that non-sport steering wheel, and can't ever think of going back to it. I drive 40+ miles daily, so it's a mod that I get to "use" every time i drive my car. Completely changes the feel.

Happy modding, bud!

I tried to find pieces with my color but it's out of my budget to have m sport put on and then painted to match my paint =/

Ehh...

Personally I'm not a fan of black wheels on a darker colored car.

I would do the spoiler in the same color as your car. It gives it a sportier look and won't break the bank.
This is the spoiler we're talking about:

I honestly can't think of what id do for wheels but I wouldn't go black.

Will that improve aerodynamics and make my car drive faster? Looks good

Bavarian m3 replicas?
