I have no major plans, apart from transferring my registration and changing the chrome kidney grills to gloss black. Hopefully these will arrive tomorrow.

Removed the wheels for a good clean on Sunday morning. While off, I freshened up the discs and calipers.



























Added some wheel bolt covers and plan to clean the exhaust tips up this evening.

Looks fantastic, think either Estorial or white are the best colours for these.

Big differences compared to 335? As in delivery of power etc.

When are you ordering springs and spacers :p

Nice upgrade ! There is no doubt these have great performance and they sound the part but I just wish they made these a bit more aggressive styling wise.

I test drove one of these with the m performance exhaust in JKC a couple of months ago when my car was in for a service. Great going thing and the sound was sublime. Enjoy!

A mate of mine has the FL version of this in a 5 door, great car I just don't like the wheels on them, a set performance 19s really improve them.

Congrats on this. I love it love it love it!

I have this in the same colour and spec but in a 5 door. It's going to have to go soon for a sensible family car now and I'm dreading it already. It just 'feels' right!

It's such a sleeper too which gives me a kick. My favourite hobby isthe traffic lights past the City Airport near Tesco, when you're sitting at front in the middle lane on a red and a (normally) Audi A4 diesel pulls up in lane three ready to give it a boot on green. Flex my big toe and away I go! Just leave them for dust, followed by them moving back over to the middle lane (or their tail between their legs haha).

You're going to have so much fun in this!
