NO MODS

I am extremely happy with my E90 just the way it is and not planning any modifications; NONE.

Does anyone else feel this way?

I am completely with you - I have never modded a car-if I don't like it the way it is, I don't buy it; period.

But of course these things are subjective.

You've got a short shifter young lady.

That counts as a mod because it didn't come with the car stock

EDIT Plus you got tints, that counts as a mod too!

Anything that is an OEM accessory isn't modding IMO, especially if it's bought from a BMW dealer. Because by that definition, anyone who gets a rear spoiler has a "modded" car.

It really isn't. What about if you have the OEM CD changer? You have a modified car?

Mod is a mod it does not matter where it came from. If you add something to the car you have modded it.

I generally dislike mods myself. But do blacklines and tint count as mods? Because if so, I'm a bit of a hypocrit

I guess it all depends on what you consider a mod?

I will agree that there are different levels of modding...

But with the exception of 2 items, everything on my car is the way it came from the factory or OEM...

I guess I fit under only slightly modified
