Hi Shaaz...
Welcome to our forum..Hope you find it useful and a pleasant place to interact with the forumers here..

Congrats also on ur new ride..

What exactly do u need to do up further ?
With sport edition, I assume ur car should already come with MTechII body kit, sport seats, M sport suspension, M steering and of course 17in rims?

IMO, those are very nice already. I suppose if u need to do some aesthetics mods, u can perhaps add on the chrome tips to your dual exhaust pipes.. :thumbsup:

Else if u think the rims are too small, then you can always upgrade em to 18in or if u think the sports suspension is not low enough then you can opt to lower your ride a bit (bearing in mind the pros n cons of lowering a ride ) or if u dont like the unsprayed doors n bumper trimmings then u can also get em sprayed to body color..piece of cake..

Sky is the limit...I strongly suggest you just enjoy your ride as it is first..Come to our regular month-end meet up and surely you will have alot of ideas from the bros here after that. It will be on this Sunday 4.30pm onwards at Kallang McDonald..

Hope to see ya soon.
Happy surfing and dont be shy to ask questions...

I am oso very young, just turned 23 :)

Cheers
 
Well, ACS_CAB2 is 18....and he drives a boxster-S...does that count?

Oh well, as long as your ride is still under warranty, PML can always argue bout voiding the warranty if u change parts outside PML..

The most senstive part when it comes to warranty issue is anything that relates to engine. So if u change to after-market spark plugs, pulleys, airbox to name a few, then they will void your warranty if your ride encounters some problems that maybe attributed to those replacements..

As far as for lowering springs, u can get eibach, bilstein I suppose but you are rite that changing springs only may likely result in accelerated wear of your shocks. Best is to go for a complete suspension upgrade..However, I think you shud just stick with the M suspension and go for performance upgrades such as a stiffer anti-roll bar.

Exterior work..hmm...quite a few, let me check the list of my body infections when I was contaminated with these deadly mod virus.. :ehhh:

1. Change your wing mirrors to M3, AC or Hagus type
2. Add an antenna (shark fin type )
3. Add on a pair of front corner splitters to your front bumper
4. Spray your door n bumper trimmings to match body color
5. Upgrade your headlights to HID type or add an angel eyes light
6. If ur light indicators are still they amber type, you may want to change them to the clear ones
7. U can have your car windows tinted
8. U can change the fonts of your number plate too hehe...
9. Change the rims to 18 perhaps..

Enough?...

U dont have to wait for your ride to come to our meet up..
Just drop by this coming Sunday, check out the guys rides and dont be shy to ask for a taxi ride esp in SL2's chio sports edition silver bullet.

C Ya dude

Thanks alot for the help guys.. so i can also fit the angel eyes in ay??.. i thought i could not.. anyways.. how much are they charging for a aftermarket price HID kit?, and the angel eyes too...

If i were to get a stiffer anti-roll bar and get springs for my suspension, wld tha help?. OR will the dampners wear off quicker?

where should i go to get all these?. and bout the m3 side mirrors rite?... my remote for side mirrors will still work?... everything will be as pernormal?. Another thing too.. do any of you know if my stock 320 side mirrors can fold?.

So basically.. if i were to go to PML with my airbox changed, powerchip, exaust etc. they would void my warranty huh??..

Thank you for all your help guys.. i don't feel as lost as i did when i put the downpayment for the car... hehehe.. :)
 
IMO, you should drive the car around for a couple of months first to get toknow the car and explore the limits. BMs by nature handle very well. (Just got my 320 SE 5 days ago). The cosmetic changes can do first as they have no effects on the dynamic attributes of the car. Right now i only have 400km on the clock so have not explored limits. Initial feel is very positive comparitively (used ot drive a modded passat). What the guys are saying should be seriously considered. easy on the hardware and go on the software.

And yes your stock mirros do fold...... by hand..... :(

Once your car run in and you used to the oomph then do the go faster stuff.

Happy motoring
 
seriously my mirrors don't have the auto folding mech?..... :verysad:

if i were to change to the m3 side mirrors will i still be able to control the angles of my mirror frm my remote or do i have to move it by hand?. :errr:
