I don't have that filter in my car, guess it was already modded without knowing it.

Aero kits, LED lights, tinted windows

I like Performance mods. Coming from a Porsche I assume you will appreciate mods that improve performance, response, handling...

1) Quaife LSD - Makes the car drive like a real BMW
2) Software/ECU - Recomend Dinan
3) Exhaust - Lots of choices but again recomend Dinan
Quaife is an excellent choice for a vehcile with lots of power and one wheel drive from the factory!

Best was easily the headers. Definitely power you can feel.

Second was probably probably the trunk organization placard.
