10 MODS YOU NEED ON YOUR BMW 1 SERIES!!! (MUST HAVE)

[@switchbladeromance1466]

It's adorable how much you love your car ❤❤

[@ziedotz7183]

LMAOO that girl that cussed you out killed me 😂😂😭

[@JoshBatesYT]

Happens on a daily 😂😂😂 I’m used to it now

[@10secondsrule]

That’s literally everything I’d never put on the car but can see if I was your age I’d probably think the same. Mate you will be laughing watching this in 10 years time. Till then, enjoy!

[@bogomilpushev3862]

I am buying this. Like next week. Fuck me I already love it before even testdriving it. Coming from an Opel Corsa C 2002 43hp to a 118i 170hp. I am scared. I might die. I don't care tho

[@Tommy-bu7rf]

That’s the spirit

[@cian6722]

Hahaha congratulations! I did the same transition! The RWD is heavenly! It just feels right! Just be careful in different conditions :) but you’ll be fineee

[@ciaranfrisby7275]

Same bro 1.2 corsa D 69hp ? To 148hp 118d

[@Spy_RitBox]

Got myself 1 month ago the e87 118d, first car. I fuckin love it. And I'd like to mod it a lot but at the same time I dont wanna spend much on it, cuz I think a car who brings you where you need to be its already a good car

[@luapamj7724]

ME TOO

[@colinblaas3592]

I'm keeping this in mind, im stil looking for a car but im considering a 1 series

[@_Marko1]

I dont rly watch you but when you said 1 thing that is a must i knew you were gonna say the exhaust its a game changer. Loved the video btw

[@BG_100]

‘Mods’ I’m looking at a 118d in all black to get in the new year!

[@MegaMrimran]

I've got a Android Screen fitted which comes with Apple Car Play/Android Auto built in. With the addition of a aftermarket reverse camera with it too. My most recent modification on my BMW 1 series, highly recommend it.

[@JoshBatesYT]

Yeah that’s sick. Is it difficult to fit the reverse camera

[@MegaMrimran]

@@JoshBatesYT I had it professionally fitted tbh. It took him about 10-15 mins to fit it. Didn't seem necessary hard, I think a wire or two needed bonding and one of them cutting that's all.

[@JoshBatesYT]

How much was it all to buy and get done

[@MegaMrimran]

@@JoshBatesYT In total it was roughly £650.

[@Nico_iam]

@@MegaMrimran hey mate what area in the uk? I can’t find a place where I’m from (Manchester)

[@scrawkyy]

Do BMWs break down quite alot

[@samderoeck26]

Love all the videos you post josh! I would love to see a deep clean on the Beamer, I’m sure that would be a sick 👍

[@JoshBatesYT]

Thank you 🙏

[@lemar1398]

Great video Josh MODS

[@JoshBatesYT]

Thank you 🙏

[@slicky_27]

good vidya mate 👍

[@rtyrty-ss1mt]

I have a silver one series. Would it still look good with all the black mods

[@JoshBatesYT]

Yeah 100%

[@ethanknox4019]

Where did you get the kidney grills from pal?

[@rogersaunders9863]

Your videos really help me yust starting on my bmw 118 2lt Deasal

[@ytdylxn1750]

Love the video, need more races between you and your friend! loved that video

[@JoshBatesYT]

Thank you and we are trying to plan some

[@jamilahaktar7477]

Can you link where you bought everything from please?

[@JoshTF]

Hi mate have you got a link to the gloss black caps at 3.39 They don’t look like they have pointy bits on the end.

[@JoshBatesYT]

I don’t sorry mate I would of got them off of eBay

[@donovancampbell232]

Where can you get the upgrades

[@TomsLifeVlog]

when you say back box taken out u mean a backbox delete?

[@JoshBatesYT]

Yeah 👍

[@jameskennedy4857]

mad exhaust Josh a carbon lip spoiler would look great along with a either carbon or gloss black rear defuser mods

[@JoshBatesYT]

I’d go with gloss black to match the splitter and side skirts but yeah I definitely want a spoiler. Diffusers look kinda strange on a single tailpipe car. I haven’t found one I like yet.

[@jameskennedy4857]

​@@JoshBatesYT I see what you mean about the diffuser and the single tip exhaust but you'll know what's best, gloss black lip spoiler would be a real mean look.

[@JoshBatesYT]

Yeah I think that’s the next part to put on

[@TSDSports]

Any advice for insurance? Particularly with the exhaust changes

[@yuo1088]

two years late to this video, but this car is awesome, I recently got my 1 series 114i 2014 plate and would love to do literally every mod you've done to this car; question is how difficult is it to change the exhaust?

[@Mawdman96]

What about mod for the bumper?

[@H2_Brexit]

You should wrap the car in matte black, put yellow headlights on it, and put a sunset-like window tint. It would look like an absolute beast mate!

[@linkmynutbar9818]

do those mirrors stop them from folding in?

[@shanetaylor6745]

Got the links where you got your bits from ?

[@JoshBatesYT]

I got most of it off of ebay. The links were too big to put in the description

[@chrisbennett-ze2iq]

how did get your foot well light that bright I change on radio to full bright so dim still any advise please

[@ryanprandle1717]

Do the splitter and side panels fit well ? I’ve got a 120i and I’m looking to get some but can only find ones that fit an m135 or m140. Do you have a link to where you got them from ? :)

[@Nico_iam]

Found any?

[@JoshBatesYT]

Yes they do and im pretty sure the m135 and m140 ones fit all models because the car is exactly the same shape

[@danpeters5403]

Where the exhaust from?

[@luapamj7724]

LOVE THIS CAR.

[@schatteneminenzfn]

you know some good mods i can use on my bmw 220d f22 ? 2015 modern line. nice vid btw!

[@E1EDITSYT]

Another superb video (mods)

[@JoshBatesYT]

Thank you 🙏

[@gummikazy]

does the 4cil also have the auto downshift thingy

[@JoshBatesYT]

No don’t think so but not 100% sure

[@gummikazy]

@@JoshBatesYT i mean on the manual 3 cil if you clutch in from 4 to 3 it auto blips the throttle

[@JoshBatesYT]

Oh there definitely isn’t a auto blip

[@lotonehl7410]

i want a 1 series so bad but i see some without the steering wheel that you and many have is that steering wheel specific to m packs ?

[@josephvillarreal1001]

M packs, and years of the 1 series all have different steering wheels

[@lolixdepolixx]

I knew the exhaust was going to come up 🥹 I’ve got a diesel and man do I wish I could make mine sound like that. Maybe have any tips for that? 😅

[@lilmo5402]

Does it not sound the same ?

[@Lilmonkmonk]

Did you get a knock at the door from the po leece after this? Lol

[@Dean_cee]

This video is so so good

[@dennisnavedmahmood6728]

Bro can u link me the exhaust?

[@JoshBatesYT]

I got it custom made at fast lane styling in london

[@jacobrandall6856]

sick vid, deffo gonna have to get this car and add some of these mods :)

[@georgewootton8590]

I know I’m abit late to this but does anyone know where I could get hold of the plastic clips for the bars behind the grills and the black side m badges ??

[@JoshBatesYT]

I got mine off ebay

[@alcorsi1968]

100% entertainment! 10 great mods Josh. Love your videos. What’s come up?

[@leereynolds3673]

[@illiamricohicklin8699]

Mods, might get a 1 series and this video makes me want it more

[@JoshBatesYT]

You won't regret it they are amazing cars

[@rossmcwilliam1517]

Hey mate, is that a steering wheel cover you have? If so, where did you get it from? Looks sick!

[@JoshBatesYT]

I got it from Ali express. It was pretty cheap as well

[@Blankleder1]

Are the 3D and 4D plates legal?

[@JoshBatesYT]

Yes they are. I got these ones from nfplates

[@Blankleder1]

@@JoshBatesYT I went to a detailing shop and they told me the plates are not road legal, but they still sell them bec people like the look. Edit , would you also consider getting tints on the back of the car ?

[@snipezpro9554]

looks cool. but less valuable when not stock. tis is a counterfit pars car. i wont fit it on my 1 series

[@leebrown5090]

Remapped ???

[@globaltrends111]

This video is beautiful in all angles... #MODS

[@SupremeDior]

[@SingleTrack66]

On a 116! ? 😂

[@davegeraghty2187]

Anyone have any videos listing mods that don't devalue the car and make it look worse?

[@JoshBatesYT]

Most mods devalue the car mate I don’t know what your looking for

[@mu3hmad]

not even got a BMW yet watching this. ill edit this comment when i get my BMW 🙏🙏

[@Alishakauser101]

Hi love watching your videos, I have a 1 series 14 reg 116d. I wanted modification but can't find any online that are reliable. Any suggestions???

[@ProjectTheKhan]

i'd understand on a 130, 135 or 140, but on a 118i half of these especially the exhaust feel like you're drawing attention to yourself and being a boy racer, for a 118i you'd be better off with a more subtle and clean look, thats coming from someone with a 218i m sport, only gloss black and mineral white and it looks clean and mean. I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but still lol.

[@JoshBatesYT]

I massively get your point but I was only 17 and had just started driving and always wanted a car that sounded good. it really was all noise no go 🤣🤣

[@ProjectTheKhan]

@JoshBatesYT lool np tbh in that situation I get it, if I was 17 when I got my 218i I genuinely think I would do something similar, but being, 27 with my 218i being my first car, I've been thinking what can I do to my car to make it look even better and get a better experience while driving, I have a tiny bit of maturity since im old, so I try to restrain myself. Love the way my car looks and the b38 which definitely has no go, but is very nippy and fun. On the plus side a couple or mods I've done is clear door edge protectors, gloss black handles and shark fin to match the shadowline, carplay activation, and retrofitting oem paddles. I'm also looking into coding for a few QoL tweaks.

[@sebastianhollund8861]

Hey im around 6'2 and feel like when i sit in theese cars i hug the roof with my head, is this a problem when driving?

[@colecrooks3391]

Can it comfortably seat a 6ft 2” driver?

[@franciscopereira6350]

Yes, im 6ft2 also and its very confortable, you only need to adjust the seat to your liking 👌

[@Yanna0612-1]

I’m 6,6 and I drive comfortable shouldn’t be a problem!

[@shellcoast0796]

🔥🔥

[@nkosekhayamaqhashu1919]

Mods 🎉

[@Just_A_Trucker]

I stoped watching the video when I saw you got ///M badge on a 116i… Enough said

[@JoshBatesYT]

It comes as standard on the car mate I just changed it to black. Don’t worry I agree that if someone adds an m sport badge it’s tacky but these are there because the car is an m sport
