BMW E90 LCI M Sport Conversion DIY

  • In this video I completely transform the look of my 2008 BMW 335i. It is a pre-lci sedan and I convert it to a LCI M Sport.
    My goal was to make my E90 look as good as possible. I went for an OEM plus look here.
    I am very happy with the outcome, it looks much more aggressive and it took years off the look of the car.
    You can buy the license plate bracket shown in this video at the following link from ECS Tuning:

    Finally ive found a video where someone completely turned it into a facelift especially with the previous kidneys which were separated. also planning my e91 from 2006 to change into lci. i didnt know only chaning the hood and kidneys would do the trick

    Oh, and one is LCI and other is pre-LCI and 100% stock. So this is perfect.

    I am basically doing the same thing to my 08 335i N54, E90 base 4dr sedan, but not sure if my car is pre LCI. (please explain the term) the car was inherited from girlfriend and I am changing out everything...engine, cold air intake system Pureturbo 600 turbos, Phoenix racing 6 port Fuel injectors., Beluga racing catless downpipes, Beluga racing catback duel exh, LED rear tail lamps, radiator, oil cooler, intercooler, headlights, lower air dam, Megan street coilovers, Stop tech cryo drilled slotted disc , painting the calipers, MFactory LSD diff and carrier, MFactory axles, fuel-it fuel pump and reg/filters, tires have 1"- 1.5" wider footprint BF goodrich tires. Until I began I never touched a BMW. YOUR videos are allowing me to do most of these removal / installs with ease. I use to race Chevrolet big blocks so I am not green but very to the great German engineering

    • @VehicularDIY
      @VehicularDIY  5 років тому

      Sounds like that thing is going to be a monster when you're done. LCI stands for life cycle impulse. Its basically BMWs term for mid cycle facelift. On E90s LCI starts in 2009. Good luck!

    Love your vids, and watch them all the time. So this isn't meant to be offensive at all, but I really don't think the front and rear bumpers were upgrades... That flat bottom on the front bumper looks terrible on this car. And the rear bumper has a different color where you would thing a diffuser would be, but it isn't. So... Still a good vid though.

    Well done LCI update. I was wondering why you did not go with the is front bumper, although you would lose your fog lights but gain more cooling if you added the is ducting. Not sure is the rear is bumper cover would work and the exhaust looks a little farther apart.
    No one in Austin, including State Troopers cares I do not run a front plate. However outside in the suburbs, it might be quite different for revenue hungry LEO.
