Good day to all,

Newbie here. I recently bought a BMW 330D, 2014 model. Obviously ecstatic about the car. The vehicle is stock standard at the moment. I would like to come to an end result aesthetically as per the pics below. Further maybe some software to spice things up as I just lost to a M240i like a left hand throw.

I am based in the Northern Suburbs of the Western Cape and also need to start looking at where to service etc. but I'm assuming this isn't the correct area to do so.

Have a great day all! :clap:

Hi, congrats. Awesome cars! I also have a white 2014 M-spot (335i). Would also be interested to know where one can the side sills and front bumber done. In terms of servicing, 2014 should still be under MP or are you over 100k km’s? APS in Stikland is doing all my out of Motorplan services over the years. Anton very knowledgeable on BMW’s

Welcome. 330d is one of the best all round cars, if not the best. With SW you should be much closer to a M240i. :thumbs:

Welcome. You will soon realize why we all love a good 330d here :smilebounce:

Couldn't help but notice... Is the spoiler paint coming off?

PS also wondering about the number plates

Welcome fellow 330d owner :smilebounce:
You will love that N57 motor but the B58 in the M240i is a monster. 190kw vs 250kw :cartel:

It was between the 335i and the 330D but due to the mileage I do, diesel seemed like the better option.

Awesome, I will give them a go, many thanks!

Thanks everyone for the great welcome!

I must agree, I can't fault the car and would love to learn all the smaller details and tricks. The previous owner spent a ton on extra's which I'm lucky to have. I have done some reading regarding the professional navigation system but what a bummer to find that one has to pay for updates :dunnoanymore:

Regarding the plates, those are images of what I would like to achieve. Herewith pictures of mine:

Welcome to the forum and congrats on a monster of a car.

As for the m240i vs 330d dice,software would make it a bit more of a dice,but stock vs stock very few cars keep up with those new B58 motors.

Thanks all! Much to learn! :=):

And yes @Dirtydeedsman, you can still get them in the WC. However those first two pics are not pictures of my vehicle, just what I would like to achieve :)

Mornings! Just for interest sake, I actually booked at BMW themselves for R1500 for the oil service. It's cheaper than a oil service on my Cupra :p
