Engineered to exact OEM dimensions for precise fitment into the BMW E8x 128i/135i, these grilles are available in a carbon fiber-look, gloss black, or matte black finish.

Lowering your vehicle provides several proven advantages in handling performance. Many enthusiasts, however, ignore the issue of disadvantageous suspension geometry changes resulting from a lower ride height. Chief among these harmful effects are unwanted changes in camber angle. In order to maintain a consistent, performance-enhancing tire contact patch, the ability to control the camber angle is critical.

A lesser known feature of the highest caliber performance cars has nothing to do with engine power output, suspension dynamics, or build materials. Almost every truly distinguished European sports car utilizes a limited-slip style differential. While an open differential effectively accomplishes the task of allowing one wheel to spin faster than the other around corners, during power delivery, this behavior is not always desirable.

Because of worn or failing suspension bushings and control arms, it's likely your E9x 3 Series displays vague, imprecise steering feel and handling - characteristics entirely foreign to BMW's original intentions. ECS offers genuine BMW and aftermarket Rear Control Arm Upgrade Kits for your car, with complete kits featuring all parts required for a thorough suspension refresh. The M3/1M control arm kits add about .75 degrees of negative camber to the front for improved handling and tire wear.

The symptoms are annoying. The costs can be painful. DISA valves control intake manifold runner length to improve engine performance at different rpm. When they fail, the DISA valve bangs around in its housing, making a rattling noise accompanied by rough idle and off-idle hesitation. If your BMW experiences these symptoms, don't wait to fix it. In some cases, parts of the DISA--including a metal spreader pin--can be sucked into your engine, causing serious engine damage. Easy to replace, your new DISA screws to the side of the intake and comes with pre-installed sealing gasket.

The BMW E39 M5 with age will develop weak spots in the rubber and plastic components and become prone to possible clogging leading to performance loss. ECS Tuning has come up with two kits to help take care of one of the most common area to suffer from these symptoms. This will give you a complete refresh on parts that can become clogged from years of oil vapor running through. With this oil vapor comes small amounts of water that can lead to freezing in the winter time.

Very few design elements distinguish the BMW M5 from the rest of the E39 model lineup. One of the more distinctive additions was black door moulding, giving the car a more substantial performance-oriented appeal. The ECS Shadowline Door Moulding kit for all non-M E39 5 Series has been perfectly matched to OEM dimensions for excellent fitment and appearance.
