The quality on these videos is very good, underrated channel.
Thanks bud ☺️
Totally agree, much better than many with many more subs. But you have to start at the bottom and work your way up!
@@michaelheathcote9488 thanks lads 🙌
I'll have to start a fight at VMAX to get my ratings up, that's a thing now apparently 😂
The look of the M140i is on point because it looks like a normal 1 Series with M Package and with a Stage 1 it is faster than a m3/m4. So a wolf in sheepclothing
THIS ^
Spend your money on performance upgrades, instead of chavving up a stock car.
Every cnut & his dog shoves fake carbon shit on their cars, black kidneys, it's rinsed to death (and looks sheeiiite).
@@DjNikGnashers Gotta love a sleeper!
@@a20axf :-) too right !
Faster than an m4 standard 😂 cleaned one up a few times
Just found your channel , you obviously put a lot of time into theses videos and it shows. Great work mate
Just come across this channel whilst debating about buying a 140 myself and had to subscribe! I can definitely see it growing rapidly..Keep up the good work!
Great video dude... The camera work, the editing and overall quality of the video looks very professional. Top notch
The Reiger diffuser on mine made a big difference visually.
I think the M Performance spoiler on mine has helped the rear end no end as have the skirt extensions and losing the silver mirror caps and canards on my white car.
The underbody brace makes a reasonable difference and are pretty cheap from Williams.
Aye I'll be getting in touch with Williams again when I need to put my order in. Seems like a nice chap when I spoke to him before about the 'hot climate mod' 😊
@@lookship I’m tempted by the hot climate mod, for £38 it’s almost rude not to.
Thanks for the tag and the support
Will definitely be visiting this video again when I get hold of my M140i. Great video quality as well 👍
Outstanding vid fella 👌🏻
I'm from Stockton and I recognise your accent aswell as the areas you're filming in. I've recently just bought an m140, previously had a mk3 focus rs. Got a few of these mods ordered courtesy of your channel but I'm with bmw insurance and heard they're a bit of a pain in the ass when it comes to insuring mods
"omg £5 over budget" - get over it its my video hahahah creased
Awesome channel. You really should have more viewers! I wish you could review other cars, I'd 100% watch em
I just saw your link on the f20 f21 Uk group. Great video! Just subscribed!! :)
Mate you deserve more subs! Great videos! I thought you must of been a fellow Teessider with that accent haha! Keep it up!
UTB 🔴
A great video mate. I saw you on the f20/f21 Uk Fb group. Just subbed :) cheers
FOUND A FELLOW TH-camR FROM REDCAR! Classic Morrisons carpark shots are cool hahahaha
The problem with any of these mods is that it makes an already relatively expensive car to insure even more expensive to insure. I quite like the standard look personally. Those who are in the know will know what it is, everyone else thinks that it is a regular 1 series until it leaves them for dust...
Depends who you're insured with Simon. I had modified insurance due to the power upgrades, any aesthetic modifications dont effect the price on my policy.
Really good as always
Great video mate, really helpful big respect
Cheers bud 👏
Hiya dude. Allot of people from the m140i groups are saying emerald struts are a no no as it f*s up the alignment of the boot around the car. Some pics shows boot being off from fitting it..
Yup...I heard the horror stories after I'd already fitted mine. I'll be sure to update you if they do cause any damage to the tailgate. I read the disclaimer on the site, which was slightly off-putting ngl but all has been ok with mine so far 🙌
Thanks for the shout out 👍
No problem fellas 👌
I need to upgrade to the 140. My 135 just looks old now when I watch this... Ugh. Why did I subscribe 😂 you're gonna cost me a fortune
Might want to unsubscribe then buddy because the next few things I'm getting are a bit more expensive 🤣🤣
Quality content mate, keep it up! And also, few other mods to mention, you can code your car for £50 with a coder, you can install interior lighting with light tubes, carbon wrap or spray your interior, subframe inserts £50 which aren't too hard and etc. Plenty more!
Expect a part 2! 😉
Then boot struts are sick bro. I’m going to be buying some for my self. I’ve just done a video on steering wheel cover
quality content geeza
Just subscribed, really good quality videos.
Ty buddy 👏
It would be great to have a video to explain how to change the rear diffuser
Noted. I might put a vid together because I'll be taking it off to polish up my backbox 👍
Great vid, own a m140i and want to change a couple of little bits - thing is I’m not very practical so will have to pay for someone to do it
Exactly what I thought to myself but most definitely I'm getting them
Love your content mate, need to get posting more! What spoiler is that again?
Links in the description bud. Just off eBay 👍
They take me about a week to make, I'm posting them as fast as I can 🤣🤣
@@lookship Yip I should have checked the description before asking haha, sorry. Great content and work mate, its a week quicker than I could get a video up haha.
Nice videos bro!
hi bro where did you get your rear splitters from? the things next to the rear diffuser
turn lights mod and bumper automatic open are my favorites... but i had a 120i 2015 soo, my money level is kinda lower hehe... i totally want some mods, for now i just put a new wheel caps i got one floating wheel caps, no matters how much you drive, the BMW logo will be always aligned upwards and plus it leds up a nice blue when over 25 mph what is a bonus that can be deactivate cutting off some wires, but i like it this way... my car is unique in my city beucase of this effect
Great video, please tint those rear lights just a lil bit 🙏
Love your colour combo very similar to mine. U wouldn’t mind leaving a link to the spoiler you have as the fitment doesn’t look too bad compared to others i’v seen.
Thanks bud. It took me ages to find the right one 😅
I've updated the description with the links to where I bought most of the parts from 👌
The spoiler is on there, but the listing for the ultra mega sport red button has vanished so you'll have to find your own if you want one of those I'm afraid 😂
@@lookship i was same when i got mine i wanted 5 door, mineral grey with cognac leather and all the toys ofc 😂, hows the fitment on the spoiler? It looks good according to video, (i.e gaps on both sides are equal as well underneath etc)
It's spot on! No gaps anywhere ☺️
Really easy to prep for paint too.
Great Video 👍🏻
I never understood people wanting their car to look "OEM" other than for sleeper purposes.
Now I understand if they like the OEM look, and that is the best option in their opinion. But I don't get the "I don't want to change it because it isn't OEM"
Black badge, wiper delete, eye lids, tinted rears
Those little eyelashes you get on Fiat 500's the list goes on 😂😂
Ffs is this in Middlesbrough?? Was staring at the wonky building in the background like ‘hmmm I’m sure there’s a building like that near here’ 😅. Great video though!
Certainly is. UTB 🔴
Try Auto id for the black badges
love your intro
Definitely a Teesside lad :)
UTB 🔴
how do you clean out the leafs that slip into the front grill?! please help/make a video
Pressure washer. There you go, saved you having to tune back in to watch a video of me talking about leaves for 10 minutes 🤣
I've got a M135i lci same shape and I fitted black mesh behind all the grills 👍
Once you go to PS4s did you pack anything extra in the boot for a when you (might) get a flat?
Nope. I like to live dangerously.
Wrap the v bars behind the grill maybe aswell
If I bought a different colour car this would have been on the list, but I like the black/grey front end. Because I'm boring 🤣
Heya, Just wondering, what MPG do you get on Motorway? I'll be looking for one of these hopefully within the next year or two, and have heard some people claiming 40ishmpg motorway and some as low as 29mpg. Thanks
I'm going to be doing a proper running costs video after I've taken it for it's next service and I've also got a friend who's been keeping track of costs on his manual M140i too. Most likely be around Christmas/New Year by the time I release it though. Couple of videos planned in before it 😊
@@lookship awesome. Subbed, looking forward to it 👍
Just a quick one, where do you get the rear bumper insert, love the look of it but I own a 120d and can't seem to decide what would fit. If you could help would be a massive help!!
Just google f20 diffuser
This ☝️
great video. As a f20 140i owner, I have done all of them except mid res delete. Do they cause any drone sound with MPE?
Ty dude. None at all. A bit louder in the cab when accelerating hard but nothing ott. No difference just cruising around 👍
Such a good video mate! Loving the channel! Just bought a 118d shadow edition in the mineral grey! Can you provide me with a link for the front splitter and side skirts please? Also can you get a diffuser that’ll fit for the 118d which only has the one exhaust? Cheers
Front splitter is KSB
Skirts are Maxton Design
As for the diffuser, I'm not sure. But there must be an aftermarket single exit diffuser for the 1 series somewhere.
If you have Instagram I've tagged all of the companies in every photo so you can message them from there 👍
@lookship on Instagram
@@lookship awesome thanks, will do :)
Did you have the port bmw version m sport or did you convert it to sport later ?
As in like the Sport, Comfort, Eco settings? 🤔
I just stumbled onto this video....(as you do).
I was thinking to myself, that lad sounds a wee bit northern, (like myself).
As i was watching your very well filmed video, i cant help notice that it looks like it was shot in The Boro? ( am i right?)
I am looking to add some titification to my 1 series, i only have the 2.0 litre ( i am a pauper), but i am sure the extrapolation will have a similar result.
I may take up some of your recommendations....peace out.
Aye it is the boro, next to river tees. He done one at tees barrage too
Great vid
looship is this mineral grey yeah ?
Correct 👍
where’s all your thousands of subscribers you deserve??
Stop it ya making me blush 🤭
Cheers bud 😅
Can this be a daily driver and what the mpg like on daily usage?
Running cost video coming soon mate. Just compiling all of the info together to make sure its accurate. Keep your eyes peeled 👀
Do you have a link or product number for the spoiler?
If the link in the description has expired mate then I don't, sorry 😶
@@lookship no worries, thanks for getting back to me so quick :)
@@thomasnichols3992 did you find out? I want this exact one but am not sure where to get.
@@AnonymousJ99 the link has expired. I haven't found this one but ended up with another off eBay.
Be careful with the struts, destroyed my hinges on my previous 1 series.
😥
@@lookship it’s honestly probably not worth the hassle! Get them off, I regretted it! It’s that extra force to shut the boot that does the damage!
Me too, popped off the ball joints on mine, smashed through the rear light, got Emerald to replace them.
@@CBelloxxi did you have the plastic or metal sockets on the end of the strut for the ball joint?
Look at the gap between the tailgate and the rear quarter above the light cluster. They usually cause them not to line up after fitted. The tailgate encroaches the light... Worth checking 👍
Hei, where can I buy rear diffusor?
RK tuning 👍
@@lookship I know is RK Tuning, but where I can buy it, because I don't see for sale that diffusor :(
@@blue_m120i ah. Looks out of stock everywhere. The V2 looks like it's available. Kind of similar
en.rk-tuning.com/product-page/rk-tuning-performance-diffusor-2
@@lookship OK, thanks. Do you have instagram buddy?
@@blue_m120i I do mate it's just the same as here @lookship 👌
I've got install videos on my channel for the kidney grill, splitter, diffuser, spoiler, side skirts and some other good stuff worth checking out too 👊🏾👊🏾 I'm sure you're gonna have some serious fun in your car!
Oooh and I've got performance intake installs 👌🏾 Cant recommend that enough - really brings out the turbo noise!
Hello,
I want to know your exhaust tips exceed how many centimenters
Think it's around 50mm 😬
Don't make me go measure it rn I'm watching Borat 2 🤣🤣
i thought that accent sounded local, then I spotted the wonky building and the transporter in the back ground!
UTB 🔴
2:45 "surely this one might be the most pointless mod, since us bmw drivers have a notorious reputation for not using them" why do i feel Offended and erm... honored? at the same time
Anyone who says swapping the kidney grilles out is a two minute job is a liar. It took me at least half an hour and cost me half my arm
😂😂😂
Now then, just wondering if you'd done the "Hot Climate Intake" mod and what your thoughts are. It makes total sense as an improvement so fancy doing it myself. Just wondered if you'd done an install vid?
I haven't yet buddy. Might do sometime this summer.
I heard the boot struts aren’t good for the car? Anyone know if it’s true lol
I'm kind of confused. Is the channel a car channel or just an all around channel??
Dude, I honestly have no idea what I'm going to be posting next 😂
I just upload stuff I enjoy making and watching back. Granted it won't be for everyone. I know people prefer subscribing to a channel that solely does one thing, but I'm just here for the fun of it rather than worrying about numbers. I'm renovating a house soon so I'll be doing videos on that aswell as all the other stuff...
Hope that's answered your question 😆🤪
I swear mods for this car are cheaper than mods are for my Abarth 🤨
I mean, it is a list of cheap mods 🤣
Wait till you want an LSD or big boi turbo's...then we're talking £££
Abarth probably sounds better than this tbh 😅
@@lookship Haha yeah I bet, and also money spent on fuel 😅
Some things are just stupid money for no real reason though. For example you can get a short shifter for a Fiesta ST for £50 but for Abarth your cheapest option is double that. The Abarths do sound great for what they are, and mine has a back box delete. But I’d much prefer the BMW straight six 😏
From you guessed it "china" 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
C H Y N A H 🇨🇳
Why would u get a 3 door tho
nice simple hassle free video..
Me Watching this video when I drive a golf GTI 👁👄👁
If 'every' M140i owner bought these same modifications, then they would not be modifications anymore, because everyone's cars would look identical.
The whole point of modifying is to have something unique, but it seem M140i / RS3 / etc owners all seem to copy each other and so the same boring shit to their cars, so everyone looks the same.
5 DOOR is much better looking car
This makes me sad 🥲
Looking at an F20 M135i, up the fuckin boro! Sure I’ve seen these dotted about
UTB 🔴
Everymod, pass m lite and get an M car.
Easier said than done, but you're right 🤣
You talk so fast I had to change the speed to 0.75
🤣🤣🤣
pero pedazo de fisura como le vas a poner a un bm repuestos de china q te salieron 15 dolares seco
I dont like the look of the dark one. Too much cheap lip stuff.
I reluctantly started to watch this and stuck with it as far as the first mod.
A red start button.
Stopped watching right there.
Adios 👋
@@lookship Arrogance and amateurism, go you.

You know it 👊
