Thought I'd never mod but........

I thought I wouldn't mod/personalize my car starting this one as it looks and performs great in stock form. Soon after I bought my car I found this web site early this year and that's all she wrote.
Half a year later, I just wanted to show everyone my progress so far as I couldn't be happier. Thanks to the members for all of the recommendations and information. Special thanks to Julius at WheelSTO for the hook up on exterior trim, (black kidney/side grills, color matched reflectors) Eibach Springs + Spacers. Also, a shout to the guys out at PTuning in NoVa for the great installation of the springs and alignment.
Just a few quick pics in the driveway using my new D-SLR.
(Obviously, I don't know how to use it very well yet)

That's what happens when you surf the Internet.

Car looks good. Enjoy.

OZ Ultraleggra HLT's are great wheels. Very good cast wheel construction, fitment, and a very good weight. They are also resonably price.

You have made an excellent modding decision.

Educated guess on the wheel & tire sizes...

Those look like the 20 x 8.5 et34 and 20 x 10 et22 combination, with 255/30/20 front and 275/30/20 rear.

Thumbs up Your M3 looks really good

When you hang around the M3post forum you get infected with the mod virus and there is no cure enjoy your M3 thanks for the pics

The car looks great. I like the look of black wheels every single time I see them. I wonder how long they will be in vogue?
