Thanks Ezio,
I guess i could have painted the wheels black or gray like 95% of everyone else..
Thanks for the feedback tho

You are right most people do paint the rims black, and there is a reason for that.

I can say your setup is different than most people for sure. It's not bad, just not my taste

Cool! It is good to see something different! Great contrast Black and Orange!

grantmax · 02-18-2015, 02:33 AM

Should have done the grills too. My buddy had the exact same color combo 3 years ago.

The car needs a little more modifications to fully pull off your set up...just my opinion. I like what you have done but I think maybe lower it and a front lip to start? I might even consider the GTS rear decklid spoiler and BBK to finish off the look I think you are going for.

See my E46 M3 that is attached...I know...I have black wheels but I did the orange a little different. This is why I say BBK...black BBK with orange lettering to set your car off.

beautiful

Here is chop, looks so much better with a drop and spacers... was thinking maybe a CRT style lip with a orange pinstripe to match but honestly the drop and spacers already make a world of difference. The fender trim in orange looks a little forced so I took it off, looks a bit cleaner. And please put the OEM BMW caps back on lmao

Gpeck14 · 03-01-2015, 02:33 PM

I like it much better now!! You are right about the side turn signal..it looks better now! I was thinking about doing the same thing on my M to match my wheels but you decided it for me...THANKS. I'm just going to try doing my mirrors. I bet those wheels (inner barrels) are a bitch to keep clean. I know mine are!

ortho281 · 03-01-2015, 10:49 PM

Like it! Lowered, a GT4 front splitter and a wing painted orange would complete the race car look!

yea i think i am going to remove the turn signals!! Inner barrels are a BITCH but, the sonar wheel cleaner makes it very very easy.
