A new twist on BBS FI wheels - Diamond Black

tlp · 10-20-2012, 02:22 PM

Just when you thought that you've seen every BBS FI color combination.

Behold a factory Diamond Black FI.

As of now according to BBS Germany this is only set of DBK FI's in existence.

BBS Japan shipped one RI-D wheel as a reference with paint and process procedures to BBS Germany to replicate the DBK look for the FI. Unfortunately, the washed out pictures don't do it justice. The 3 stage painting process has a lot of personality and visual facets that the photos don't reveal. The colors and look play off Space Gray very nicely. The exact vibe that I was looking for.

Enjoy

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
