i replied back to ur PM. U can have a choice of different colors for Interior LED lighting. I think u should also get the JB3. It's almost like free horsepower and unleash the REAL potential of the car

Dont smoke ur taillights too dark. U already have the beautiful LCI taillights.

have you modded anything yet? it would be a lot easier for us to help you if we knew the details on your car.

You could start with plate leds, hid fogs, super white angel eye upgrade, black grill, shadowline trim, change the badges, interior leds, acs style peddles, smoked led side markers, tinted tails, roof and trunk spoilers, trunk finisher. Point is i can go on forever. There are so many more things that arent that expensive that you could do.

I agree with what others have said. Save you money and get some wheels. Maybe look in the private classifieds and buy some wheels used. Im thinking about selling mine so maybe you could pm me.

For cheap mods, get some spoilers. That will help change the look a little. But wheels is a must.

These are a few pics of my car. I wanna get LEDs and other mods that can be easily removed if necessary, because after all, this car is a lease....
I might buy after, but for now, that's not my plan. So wheels and spoilers probably can't be done because unless I wanna keep the car, I don't wanna kill the warranty.

wheels and suspension will not void or affect your warranty. I've got kw coilovers, 20 inch custom wheels, full exhaust (from the downpipes) on my 535i and have never had any problems with the dealership.

I say go for the RPi scoops and drop in filters, JB3 and the RPI gt race exhaust....or nice wheels and a drop.
don't waste your money on the cheap stuff, you drive a BMW my friend

but if you must, PM member Nerweezy or TrinityAutosport, they are trusted vendors here on this forum. they're local in irvine LOL

good luck

there's no inexpensive mods on a BMW, they're all expensive.
