I had the dealer transfer them from my 335. They are BMW OEM pedals. They also tranferred the performance steering wheel. The steering wheel looks so hot.

Congrats!
Is it jet black or Jerez?

Love the stock 19s, hope you plan on covering up the aluminum/chrome trim around the windows!

Check out this forum member from California (TheBry), he actually had it covered up with vinyl. Personally, I had my painted!

It makes the car look like an M. Its unreal that the E93 M3 in US/CANADA come with aluminum/chrome trim. I will NEVER understand why they did this. No other M car has ever come with it!

Congrats marky!

you should have gotten front license plate delete! for that clean look!

and you need some tints and 3M for the front hood!

anyways, car looks nice, and i think the aluminium/chrome strips look fine, i have left them on mine too!

P.S the performance steering wheel, do you care to share where you got it installed from?
and what features does it have?

looks good man!....my twin car! (except for the black interior)...

Ive left the aluminum trim on mine too so far (i dont mind it)...but was thinking of maybe doing black vinyl overlay (easy to remove if i dont like it), a black grille and body colour reflectors to go for the all black look. I found a place in markham that does the vinyl for about $150. Still undecided though...

I need that front plate. I don't want any tickets or attention from the police. I prefer to stay off the radar.

As I mentioned in my previous posts. BMW Mississauga transfered it from 335 to the M3.

Not a fan of tints, 3M for sure, just need to find someone that will do a perfect job.

Please search E90post and M3post for feature information on the steering wheel. It does a lot.

Eventually I'm going to order the painted reflectors. All the others you mentioned, I'm not interested in.

Looking forward to the M3 meets this year. I never really made an effort to attend meets with the 335 guys. The M3 is a whole different club. Definitely exclusive.

I actually like the silver strip. Not a fan of the black trim at all.
That's why i left mine the way it is.
One thing i would definitely recommend as others have mentioned is the painted reflectors. A definite must have...
Congrats bud.

Where'd you get yours? All the American vendors are asking $100+ after USD conversion and shipping.

I know a good place that can get you the 3M done, Dealer did my hood, whole bumper, and side mirrors definitely worth it, no need to worry about chips etc.

well how much did you pay for the sports steering wheel, when you got it installed on your 335?
did u get it done at bmw mississauga?

Hey Markymarc1979, is your steering wheel working properly? May I ask which dealership doing it for you? I may want to have one but my dealership said they may have problem doing it.
