Hey gang,

I am sorry, new here... tried searching but couldn't find a definite answer.

Would mods from 335i coupe fit 335i convertible?

Your coupes looks soooo good and I was wondering if the convertible owners face issues when they want to mod their beemers due to incompatibility?

Thanks!

A couple of simple E90/92 ones have worked for me on the convertible -- the leather ZHP short shift knob (best $60 I have ever spent on a car) and the M-stitched steering wheel replacement. Not sure about engine or suspension stuff.

For exterior mods, I would gather, anything below the beltline works for both E92 and E93s e.g. wheels, suspension, body kits etc. Same should apply to most mechanicals and electrics.

Most stuff works on the E93 except the obvious stuff - bumpers and rocker panel valance are the same, wheels are the same, engine is all the same (including strut brace) and exhaust fits fine. Really the only things that are specific are the truck spoiler needs to be an E93 piece and if your ordering a replacement of the wood/aluminum console trim it has the cutout for the roof button.

I forgot to add I am getting a full M package with the convertible... duh!

So this and this (the trunk spoiler) should fit the convertible?

Thanks for the quick response!

Uh - no and no - trunk is 100% different from the coupe to the convertible as the trunk is what opens and is shaped to fit the roof - you cannot do any mods to the E93 trunk and no E92 spoilers will fit an E93 trunk lid

Thought so but decided to ask anyway. Apologies for my ignorance, still new but willing to learn

basically, as far as body goes, the coupe is the same till the rear windows
but the rear bumper is the same as coupe

How about interior wise? (E92) CF trim, LEDs, etc?

[BMWdmk]

well if bavdom would have gave me the CF trim i paid for i could've told you
BUT NOOOOOOOOOOO!
lol
trim should be fine
i saw on Tischer that the trim was for e93/e93 so im assuming they are the same...PM him he should be able to verify for sure...

Oh and as far as the lighting
they all should be the same for head and tail lamps too

Thanks bro!

from what ive learned on this forum, the e92 exhaust wont fit an e93 - something is different underneeath the car

could anyone verify?
