...Does that have a sports pack on it? It doesn't look like standard exec spec. Get angel eyes for it, I've just ordered them for mine and looking forward to installing them next week if they arrive in time. Fat wheels never go astray. Apart from that man, just enjoy that awesome inline 6 power and that wonderful burble the exhaust makes.

The 330 has good perfoemance, but you need Exhaust, Wheels and lowering, you will get handling performance, engine performance, and sick looks, You will be happy with it and you Will Look and sound Bad ass. trust me!

Right now im thinking, 1.)clear corner lights and side markers, and new tail lights. 2.)window tint. 3.) Nice set of black rims.
Im not to sure about lowering it becauce i already bottom out going over some speed bumps. But im definly going to get a new exhaust sooner or later.
Do you guys know what parts wont void my warrenty?

i worked at a bmw dealer ship and as long as you buy parts that are athorized by BMW you should be fine, rouge would be a good choice, what will void are cold air intakes, superchargers, turbos, chips, down pipes, short shifters, and different transmissions, LSD,and lowering it but as long as you dont make it really noticable they will just ignore it..... good luck with your 330i ive got a 2001 sport packege too

i did the clear lights all round plus tints as the first things and it made a nice change to the car, made it look cleaner and fresher if you know wat i mean.

Ahhh, go for power today, looks tommorow. 1) engine back exhaust with header 2) Intake 3) computer reflash

If you are bottoming out your shocks are shot.

i would go for clear corners, and a drop to start with.. some nice rims wouldn't go astray either!

edit: thread from the dead... what did you end up doing with the car?
