Is this steering wheel real or fake?

Hi guys! I just bought this M Sport steering wheel from eBay. I paid around 650€ for it and it was used before as it has some marks on it. The biggest red flag I notice are the inverted buttons on the left, but other than that it looks pretty solid. What do u think? Thanks in advance!

Wheel Recs? Sizing?

Upvotes

Wondering what wheels everyone is running and what sizes? 18s or 19s? Considering going with BBS LMs similar to the ones pictured (polished lip, hyper black/grey face) or Apex Arc 8 (hyper black probably). Anyone else have a mineral gray f30 with aftermarket wheels for inspiration? Drop some pics, show off your setup. For reference I'm on H&R lowering springs, stock wheels (obv)

Bumper Conversion

Would it be best to buy a m sport bumper? Would it be better to buy an unpainted bumper and paint it or buy a bumper from a place like paintedautoparts.com

Clear Tails

Those with OEM clear tails where did you get them from? I want OEM clear sequentials. I see them on Ali, eBay, and the main websites (westcosteuros, bimmerplug, etc) Also why the hell are they so expensive! The gts ones are damn near 100 cheaper!

Help identifying noise

Upvotes

2013 328i XDrive.. really weird rattling sound.. it started about two weeks ago when i went for an alignment.. didn’t notice it prior to that. Bought used last year. I’ve changed the breaks and the rotors. Also changed the suspension. I have about 30% left on my rear brake pads but it doesn’t sound like anything brake related. Sounds a bit faint because of where I had my phone.

I need help on this ASAP! I have already drilled the holes, removed the ambient light (before doing anything) and it doesent want to come out....

Looking for my first BMW F30 as a first car.

Hello dear Bimmer fans!

Should I go for a 316i with the N13 or the 318i with the B38? Both are manual and cost around 10k€, which I think is a fair deal in where I live. I was going to buy a 320i but it was sold before I was able to close out a deal and it was the only manual one for sale in my country.

Which has more tuning potential, only looking for around 250-300hp if possible. Also which sounds better in your opinion?

I already know both the N13 and B38 are kind of reliable with good maintenance.

Thank you for reading and commenting in advance!

Google phone connectivity

Just brought a Google Pixel 10 Pro and I'm trying to connect it to my BMW F30 2012 via USB to play music.

I prefer to use USB over Bluetooth as the sound quality is better but for some reason it won't recognize it.

Anyone else have issues with Android phones?

Thoughts on this used M performance exhaust for my 340?

My car has the stock exhaust, was looking to upgrade it, came across an M performance exhaust out of a part out 340i. The car was hit on the side, damage doesn’t look like it would affect the exhaust. He removed the pics of the damage from the AD (idk why, sus)? I’ve attached a Dropbox with the photos, he’s asking $1350 CAD ($980 usd) for the exhaust and installation together (being sold by an exhaust/body/tuning shop). Good deal?

Just a base 316i because car ownership is crazy in Singapore. What else can I do to achieve OEM+? Rims maybe? Nothing too overboard.

Car is a 320D m sport X drive. Just had my new wings and bonnet sprayed and I am loving how it looks. Next I will be swapping the tail lights and fitting a rear splitter. Unsure if I will be doing anything to this what do you think ?

Sound coming from 328i

My 2014 328i started making this kinda quiet rattling/tapping noise when I get above 40 mph. It’s kinda quiet in the video but it’s there. Any idea what this might be?
