320ed Upgrades

Hi guys, I wanted to ask, as I'm getting a little bored of the appearance, if anyone has done any upgrades lately to their 320ed? Let me know what you did and pics if possible. Wasn't some ideas. Cheers boys.

Lol. Thats a given but lots of people complained of knocking sounds after they changed to bigger alloys, so need to know which ones have been tried and tested.

Got an 320ED too, like you worried about putting bigger alloys after so many report issues without any successful stories!

In the middle of doing a non xenon halogen bulb upgrade, matte black grilles and matte black badge.

Illuminated door sills might be next, and maybe black wheels too.

Looks ok, think it would only work coding it with a black car.

Other colours would look bit naff and Chavy.

Seen it on a AW which looked ok. It was gloss rather that matte black but went well with the gloss grille, agree it needs 2 match other bits like wings, skirts etc.

I did the same thing to my 330i E90, had black everything in that car!

Tint it, and black grills - that's what I've done

Is it a company car? - mine is, just make sure you let them know.

Badge looks cool. Pls upload some pics after you've done the bulbs and especially the grills...would love to see that.
