Hey-New guy

Hey Everybody,
My name's Zach and I picked up an e90 325i 6spd/mt (black) with the sport suspension last year. Previous car was a 2004.5 VW GLI, but was taken by our lovely downtown potholes. Yes, a pothole totaled my car while trying to find parking
. Anyways, I've always wanted a BMW and was able to pick one up. Grabbed the 325 as there weren't many other cars that caught my interest at the time and I was in kind of a bind. Thought okay this is clean, won't take much to get it how I want. Car is currently stock, but have ordered some parts and looking to get her close to done by this summer. Unfortunately I have the stock halogens as well (killing me everyday when I look at her). This is my first BMW, so if anyone has any tips/suggestions - let me know! I'm currently running 16in Borbet's- if ya see me give me a honk or somethin'Also if anyone has or knows anyone with these parts- give me a shout!
-Pre-LCI Xenon's (Probably going to go Umnitza if I can't find a set locally)-An exhaust guy that could assist in the dual to dual-quad change
-Wheels and tires- debating between a staggered 18x8.5/18.9.5 or 19x8x5/19x9.5 setup. If anyone knows anyone selling a set like this I'd appreciate it!

Welcome, any pics of the car?

Being low definitely didn't help the situation. Due to the height it caught on the sewer cap that was attached to the pothole. If anyone wants to see it, they did a wonderful (sarcastic) job of paving it (it's on Jackson and Mason).

Welcome!

Headlight swap requires some coding, if you need any help with it e90s are my flavor. Welcome!
-
Great to know! I'll definitely be hitting you up when I get them
-
What year is it? It might require a frm2 or 3, its an expensive retrofit for sure..
-
'06. If anyone knows of a company other than Umnitza that puts out a similar product, please let me know. Otherwise, they seem to be the best viable option.

Check out E90post.com for parts/headlights. Lots of goos used stuff up there.

I apologize for the size of those- Uploaded them from my phone. But man! Did I love that GLI. Oh well, on to greener pastures I hope!

Welcome Zach!
Car looks very nice
Headlight swap requires coding?!?!?!?
You should also get an older BMW to tinker with
The battery needs to be coded when you swap it in these cars, your suprized? Lol
