Are those wheels redone in satin black?
They're apex ps-7's in satin black.. got them on close out when they quit making them. They're a little more rounded then the ec-7's. I don't think they were very popular but I like them. I think they complement the round like look/lines of the e92..
They look good, similar to the OEM look, I'm a fan

In the same exact process of darkening my zcps - which color code u went with if you know. was thinking of redoing them in bbs platinum silver and going through the multi step paint process but afraid they would look too chromy.

Oh and we need mounted pics now

Yes let's see them. One day I'll get a set of 359's and have them Done with PVD powder coating in Black Ice. I think it would look terrific.

Tires will be mounted Wednesday. Once I put them on the car, I will take a photo.

The colour is: Sonic Silver Metallic (45P/807/B/SSP). Looks like it may be a Mazda colour... Zoom Zoom!!

They look nice in the show room!!

I stitched my OEM steering wheel with the Mewant cover. I am pleased with the outcome. My friends don't believe I did it. I also installed the BimmerTech OEM Integrated rear camera.

If I were to ever get my car repainted a different colour, I'd do Techno Violet

Drove to OC on my second tank of "93" with 100 & 91 blended. Pinging is gone at low RPMs and the engine response seems snappier.

I always find that my m3 runs best with shell 91, even against 93 or 94 octanes because in Ontario that's the only fuel without ethanol. The other ones while higher octane, use 10% ethanol and I can usually tell a difference. Met a guy with an S85 and he said the same thing about his M5.

I swear, I was at my frds shop today looking at the Jerezblack, and actually looked up techno violet color code to see how it would look on the e92. I think i might be going with this soon.

Best color ever!
