New to me 330i

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Just picked up a used Black Sapphire Metallic 2019 330i xDrive fully loaded (M sport package, executive pack, driving assistant pro, leather seats, Harman Kardon) Got an AMAZING deal on it - $38k with 8k miles and clean carfax. I absolutely love driving the car.
So far I have the black grill and M license plate frames to replace the ones from the dealer. Thinking about powder coating the wheels but not sure if I want to spend another $500 (just spent $600 getting it paint corrected since it had severe scratching and marring). Also coded the assisted driver view using Bimmercode and one of the cheap OBD connectors. Does anyone have any other mod recommendations? Below are some photos.

Congrats! I haven't seen that trim very much but it looks good here, definitely gives the cabin a luxurious look.

Looks great! I think the wheels look nice the way they are... provide a nice contrast to the rest of the car.

- go into Expert Mode in KOMBI ECU
- search for each parameter (there is a search box)
- change
- Code
CB_FZG_UMGEBUNG_FAS: aktiv (01)
CB_PRESELECT_NAVI_ANSICHT_FZG_UMGEBUNG: aktiv (01)
PIA_FZG_UMGEBUNG_FAS: aktiv (01)
SICHT_ABSICHT_ENABLE: aktiv (01)

This is the guide I followed - I didn't have a PIA_FZG parameter so I only changed the three things and it still works for me.

I'm in NJ so we can only tint rear windows which I am considering. The reflectors don't bother me so I'm not sure I'll bother with them. Deciding between tinting the rear windows or powdercoating the rims, I think I'll get more value out of the tints though.

So, I just tried this out and it worked! Same as yours, I couldn't find the PIA_FZG but still worked. Now just have to figure out how to code lane change assist using bimmecode. Thanks again!

https://cartechnology.co.uk/printthread.php?tid=59504
Lane Change Assist (select in idrive after coding)
SAS2
C_SWA_Vorhanden -> aktiv

HGU
Spurwechselassistent -> Aktiv

BDC (was the last available CAF under this ecu)
Spurwechselassistent -> Aktiv

Maybe this works? Not sure if these options are available in bimmercode I can check tomorrow if I have time or if you want to check tonight

I copied your instruction and posted it in another thread for everybody to see, if you don't mind.
I was trying to link your thread but can't figure that out.
