I just thought it would be fun to see what everyone would do to their 318ti's if they had a reasonable (more or less) amount of money to spend on them. Here is my list.
1. Camber plates
2. Camber adjusters in back
3. Rear strong strut
4. Strong strut body brace (not sure on fitment)
5. BMW X-Brace
6. Racing Dynamics Front and rear strut tower bars
7. Racing Dynamics Front and rear sway bars
8. Sparco Rev seats
9. Sparco Ring steering wheel
10. Painted carbon fiber hood
11. KO supercharger kit stage III+
12. Cams
13. MSD DIS-6 Ignition
14. Magnecor 8.5mm race wires
15. Quaiffe 3.73 LSD
16. Supersprint headers |  |  | | 09-26-2005, 04:32 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Lynchburg, VA Posts: 200 |

I've been a bit of a spending whore  This is what is pending: Ko Supercharger M-tech 3-spoke steering wheel M3 heated/electric mirrors clear corners and sides angel eye lights 3.46 LSD with M3 coupe cover lowering caps Reiger front spoiler M-tech side skirts And I'm in the works for an M-tech rear bumper. If that goes through, I'm also in for a Hartge roof spoiler and Reiger rear hatch spoiler. I just figure if I'm gonna get some stuff painted, then I'm gonna buy all the stuff, and get them painted at once. That would be the front spoiler lip, the mirrors, the roof spoiler and the hatch spoiler. This is getting way out of hand  In case you think I whored all this stuff off Ebay, let me divide my loot up. Ebay: 3.46 LSD M-tech 3-spoke steering wheel Angel Eyes The rest came from "ALL OTHER" sources! __________________
