Help on which mods (E90 M3)

Hi Guys

Looking for suggestions and advice re mods for my clean 08 E90 M3 (Alpine White)

I am currently lining up an exhaust from Imran (Evolve) either the Eisemann Race or the Remus Race, but also want to add that extra bit of exterior styling.

I know there are plenty of guys doing the mod's on E92's but has anyone lavished their E90 yet? If so I would love to see some pics & advice

Budget (including exhaust) around 3k.

If you've got an 08 M3 E90, you might want consider the Dark Line Rear Lights, they're much better than the standards, might look pretty cool with the Alpine White as well.

I only ordered a set of these last Wednesday....so there you go!

Done a few mods already:

Forgestar F14's in matte black (currently on order and in production)


Fitted matte black front grilles

Remus Race exhaust system on back order

Fitted brilliant white angel eye LED markers

Still to come, front splitter & rear diffuser (both in matte black), BMW performance sports steering wheel, side & bonnet grilles (again matte black)

Then as always I will probably end up selling the damn thing

Am considering the Remus exhaust myself, had Remus on previous cars and they always have excellent sound to them. Where did you source the brilliant white Angel eye LEDs? Any probs with these?
