Advice needed, Potential owner of a 2015 35i

My main question is what does modding look like on this platform? My last BMW was a E92 335i M/T and from my signature you can see I had it nearly FBO.

I work at a dealership, we currently have a 2015 X1 with the N55 and since selling my 07 E350 I've been borrowing it until I can get into something else.

Since my 335i got taken out in a accident I've been yearning for another one but haven't been able to score one through our usual avenues. But after driving this X1 for a few weeks I actually kinda like it and know there are a few things I'd like to do mod wise but from what I can gather mods are super limited for this car.

I'm leaning more towards performance mods rather than aesthetic mods since it's already an M Sport.

What's your guys' experience??

What would be your mod goals for the car?

Basically all the FBO N55 e90/135i mods are direct fit with the X1 N55. Only thing that X1 lacks is catback exhaust options (Supersprint is the only option I'm aware of for direct fit, some take 135i exhaust options but need to be modified to fit). Coilovers/springs are available but pretty limited on options.
