Hahahaha!!! Up to now, on the car, have the 20" Flame Sport Breyton wheels with Michelin PS2´s (F 240/35 & R 295/30), Breyton lowering springs, Remus Exhaust and some interior goodies such as Breyton aluminum pedals, gear shift and brake. That is all (see pics in "my garage")!!!!

On there way.

1. Vorsteinr CLS CF boot lid that I will paint AW and perhaps leave a small CF edge,
2. 3d CF diffuser, ACS CF splitter w/o the aluminum attachments or grills (don´t like those at all),
3. Gruppe-M CF air intake (3 weeks),
4. EVO type M3 leather steering wheel arrives today.

Pending,

1. ECU reflash,
2. Brembo BBK (possible 405mm discs)
3. Other engine mods?????? We will have to see one at a time!!!!

I would say matte black!!! Of course, if you don't like it, you can always change it!!!

You're nuts! Great mods. Only thing I don't like is the Breyton wheels, but to each his own. PLEASE post pics of the steering wheel when you install it!

First time I hear someone not liking them, but as you say, to each his own. hahaha!!!! I agree they are not the best looking wheels, but didn't really have all those choices down here. By the way, I would NOT paint them black or gloss black or anything, I like them as is and will probably change the outer lip from polished to non polished aluminum.

here are some sample pics of my car and a customers car

matte black


CF 1x1 weave to match CF roof on M3


matte black with painted white outer surrounds

[KonigsTiger]

white painted grille < matte black < OE IMO, could be the pics though!!! Still have to see it in person.

I just got these from Cyba!





1x1 weave.

PM Cyba, he has the BEST price and the BEST product.

The package that it came in was great too, everything was wrapped up nicely to insure quality.

Just my MO, but in those photos the all black grilles, especially in the last photo, remind me of a Pontiac front end. I think I'd prefer to keep the dark crhome bars with the black surround. I imagine that is an option?

Haha i dont have my car yet. Should be here either Friday or Saturday. Those are the first thing im going to put on!

[fmquadri]

damn - pulled the trigger too quickly and ordered matte black grills. I think i want the outer surround painted black to match.

how much should it cost to have a body shop do this?

Clear bar looks very "race" oriented. Never seen one but should look great!
