I Bought The Cheapest 440i BMW Gran Coupe and Transformed it!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video I introduce you to my new 2018 BMW F36 440i xDrive Gran Coupe. I bought this for the channel to make content on a gen 1 B58.
I transform the look of the car by installing a rear diffuser, front lip spoiler, rear decklid spoiler, m style mirror cars and double slat gloss black kidney grilles.
This car has high mileage and I plan on tackling the common maintenance items for this engine.
If you are interested in purchasing the upgrades shown in this video you can do so here (affiliate):

The rear spoiler

The mirror caps

The front lip
amzn.to/3C4Dxbl
These would fit the F32 and F36.
There will be plenty of content to come for this car.
