M3 E92 Silverstone II

I said not to go with black wheels (I still wouldnt have) but I have to admit it looks good and you have a unique look. Not enough SSII around, its a beautiful paint. I think you need gloss black grilles at the front and it'll look so much better. Maybe even go for the new facelift rear lights.

Anyway, looking good!

The wheels are actually pretty matte and with some dust on them they will look very matte so Im thinking of going for matte black grill and side intakes. I dont know where to find theese things in europe tho? A link to a pic with the facelift rearlights??

I liked the wheels before! SSII is a beautiful colour and is well complemented by shiny silver wheel versus a dark wheel.

I thought your car was drop dead gorgeous with the original wheels.

Im not a huge fan of LEDs so Im thinking maybe just darken my current ones

question remains, where to get matte black kidneys? I had an order placed at eurosportdesigns.com but after 19 days and still no shipment i cancelled it..
Thx for feedback

Im young and I want the car to look more sporty and raw but i do agree it looked more classy with the original color on the wheels.

That is also a good idea. If you do the rear lights do smoke them completely. Go for a nice tint to match your CF roof and wheels. Any other plans for the car? Front lip or anything?

Yes I am looking for a front lip but I havent found any that I like except the oem from the competition package. Matte black kidneys and side indicators. Performance wise I have ordered a K&N replacement air filter. I will also have the swedish company Ferrita build me a catless system with x-pipe. It will sound something like this, (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqe-NwpJ6g8&translated=1)a bit different since it will be without cats. Probably have the car mapped afterwards or just a chip to increase the top speed and gain a few horses.

After that I think I will stop modding it
