Well here it goes...

We all know the typical mods that can be seen or heard on the 335 but what about those little cool mods you can add to the car to give it that little extra?

No tunes, meth,turbos etc..

Just relatively cheap mods and make sure to list where you can get them.
Pictures would be cool also

Hummm, the E9X M3 upgrades are a popular path for guys that want to tweak the handling of the 335. The E9X M3 control arms, tension struts, guide rods, strut brace, and sway bars all bolt right on to the 335 and make a pretty drastic improvement to the over all handling. HERE (http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E92-335i-N54_3.0l/Suspension/M_Upgrade/?salesrep=JRiggsbee&utm_source=bimmerforums&utm_medium=forum&utm_content=JRiggsbee&utm_campaign=postreply) is a link to our "M Upgrade" section for the 335.

Coilovers are a popular upgrade as well, but if you're not looking to spend a ton a good set of springs will lower your cars ride height and help give you a little more road feel. H&R Race Springs are a great choice on a budget, HERE (http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E92-335i-N54_3.0l/Suspension/Springs/?salesrep=JRiggsbee&utm_source=bimmerforums&utm_medium=forum&utm_content=JRiggsbee&utm_campaign=postreply) is a link to them.

Other than that little things like clear or smoked side markers make a fairly drastic change in the look of the front of the E9x (I have some avaible HERE (http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E92-335i-N54_3.0l/Lighting/Side_Markers/?salesrep=JRiggsbee&utm_source=bimmerforums&utm_medium=forum&utm_content=JRiggsbee&utm_campaign=postreply))
