Wowzer, 463wkw & 853nm - what was done to the car to achieve this?
I assume it was also a specific tune for the dyno and not a daily tune with those figures?

Looks good though!

Truth be told, If the fuel mix used was available at the pumps the car would be able to live on this power setting permanently with no adverse outcomes... Firi has spared no expense on this car with plenty GP-KZN trips under its belt without an issue.

I haven't documented the power mods build on this thread due to theft of my phone years back which had all the pics...but the mod list is extensive.

Pity I never got to complete and hook up the stage 3 lpfp which is sitting in car, she's begging for it to be done

Thanks @Kish2604 , yeah she needs fuel to make the horses....

And yes 12 trips in total to KZN in the 7 years of ownership

Some of the pics from 2017-2019 trips

Broke the lip on the 335 late 2019.

Opted to go with something different so we imported 3 for our E9xs

Smaller lip with sharper edges in the design to give it a more aggressive look.

Pics below

Managed to break my 1st lip ever and decided its time to do something different. Rennzport sourced a new lip which gave me more clearance and looked more aggressive. At the same time decided the plastic mesh which the 1M bumper came with and replaced it with oem 1M air ducts which @deago.parts@abmbmw sorted for and fitted by Mo from Crazyridez

Time to update these threads.

The balance of 2019 and 2020 was a blue. We had a lot on our plate and was very focused on work , home and my family so attention shifted to those.

The 335 still got its love but did its last trip yo durbs in Sep 2020. As always she did it flawlessly and a pleasure to drive.

Towards the last quarter of 2020, we Decided to up the game on the E90 front once again and order a GTS Style steel bonnet.

At the same time, one of the rings from my customized headlight came loose so I felt its time to change them our with 3/4 Dtm rings with an indicator switchback function. Was very happy with the outcome. Build pics below

Yea I remember doing this job on my car, and then helped a forum member out by doing the same job on his headlights. I won't do it again in a hurry 🤣 Such a bloody mission. Honestly fitting turbos was actually less effort!

I have done angel eyes and xenon projector installs on many car and bike headlights but these cars! Far too much effort, However the outcome looks amazing!

I always wanted to redo my windscreen company decals and opted to get a matt black with gloss black lettering done.

Old decals

New one

Next up was retrofit F8x.paddle shifters into the E90....yes you heard right, F82 m4 paddles into an E90 😅 also decided to change the house to a slim red housing to match the interior.

Ended of 2019 with the arrival of another 1st for E90s in SA.

Gts Style bonnet in steel E90. Perfect fitment and even though I ran into an issue with shoddy spray work from the 1st company we gave it to, the outcome after it went to proper panel shop was perfect.

Nothing could have prepared me for the outcome and just awesome this bonnet would turn out on the car. Very aggressive and completing the front end of the car to what it always needed to be. Completed pics below20210514_154757.jpg
