I guess it's tougher when you're putting them on Sparking Graphite though, I hear they don't snap in or bolt on as easy. SG is a nice color though.

how many AW M3s do you see with black grills and a 3d lip? he pulled this off well for a sparkling graphite considering that there are many more options he could have gone with; that may have looked worse, better, or just as good and he mixed and matched everything perfectly. how many sparkling graphite M3s do you see with black grills with a 3d lip? not many compared to AW M3s at least... not saying that those two parts are what makes this SG car, but that he did the WHOLE car perfectly (IMO of course and i guess you can say tom's too ): Last edited by EmmettBrown; 12-19-2010 at 04:45 AM.. |

The forum reminded me of this old thread. I still love this color but I'm not convinced it's Sparkling graphite unless it's totally different indoors since I've only seen it outside.

it is actually one of my favorite colors for this car. if they had later models made with sparkling graphite, i would have had a really hard time deciding between space grey and sparkling graphite.

Unfortunately a lot of sparkling graphite I have seen out in the world are in rough shape. And yes the color does change A LOT with garage lighting vs sun. |
