MY Alpine White E92 with minor cosmetic mods!

I will do an official photoshoot over the next 2 days. These are just teasers. Enjoy!

Mods are: Matte Black kidney Grilles, painted reflectors, GP Thunders 8500 bulbs, and 6000k D1S HID bulbs.

They'll ask you weather or not if you want to have the front bumper drilled, and ask to you to sign a piece of paper stateing that the dealer will not be responsible for it.

Just curious. How easy or difficult was it to remove the front grills to paint them. Did you come close to breaking any of the clips?

I actually purchased a set of aftertmarket Kidney Grilles online for $90. Not worth painting the stockers.

That sounds almost reasonable. Please calrify just to humor us. What you are saying is that pictures of his car with yellow reflectors were temporarily posted before these I see now with the body matched reflectors? Could be possible but sounds very suspicious. S65B40, can you humor us as well and let us know if you posted any shots with yellow reflectors?

I am pretty sure he was seeing things. All the pictures I posted are post painted.
