A few photos after 5 months & 2700 miles of owning my E90 M3

I took a few photos this morning since I detailed the car yesterday and decided to upload them for everyone interested to see. The only additions I had done to my car are reflector holes fill-in and full front clear bra (Venture Shield by Premier). I would have prefered a much better looking backdrop for taking photos but this will have to do for now. I will definitely take some very nice pictures when I have enough time to dedicate to it. By the way, the car has been nothing but perfect and I am extremely satisfied with everything it has to offer. Thanks for looking.

Beautiful car.

Can you provide more info about the "reflector holes fill-in" you used. It looks as it they are not even there. Are they covered by the bra?

Thanks

Yes, my whole front is covered with clear bra but the bra doesn't mask anything if that's what you ment. It cost me $600 to do.

It looks great. Did they paint the entire bumper after doing the fill-in or just a touch up and blend it in with the original paint?

Yeah that would be nice... any ideas for locations? Santa Monica Pier maybe? ///Mantis is coming over tomorrow, we should do it then... I've got a DSLR.

edit: but not if it interferes with the USC game, got big money on it! Go Trojans!
