Contemplating. Back to stock and loss of track capability was step 1.

Nothing like a freshly washed wheel! Polish is next.

Put an MPE and a BMW Performance carbon lip on my M3 and then had the paint corrected. It's amazing how good the Jerez black can look!

That stance is just perfect!

Is it square, or spacers at the front?

And the angel eyes - tell me more, please!

Good move lastMleft, trying to keep a black cr looking good is next to impossible. I purchased a 2007 335i in Flat Black, and the car drove me nuts based on my attempts to keep it looking clean, and keeping swirls off of the paint. Don't get me wrong, it was the first year of the E90 generation, I loved the new shape, the look of the car, and the interior, to me was incredible, it did not hurt that it came fully loaded. Moving forward seven months, I traded the car for an E93 in Sapphire Grey, as I could no longer manage the flat black paint on the E92. Had I known about coatings back then, that's the route I would have taken. However, in 2007, coatings were rare and still had a long way to go. Fast Forward to 2011, and traded the E93 for an M3 ZCP, car went directly to my detailer for full Paint correction, clear bra hood, fenders, front bumper, mirrors and Opti Coat Pro. IMHO, the full paint correction is necessary prior to coating or clear bra, my 911 took 9 hours to correct - brand new paint, but the result was worth it, it pops, even though it is white. Detailer used Modesta on the 911. One item I would recommend for you is a Foam Cannon: http://www.autogeek.net/pinnacle-foam-cannon-hp.html, this makes life much easier, used with the correct soap: http://www.chemicalguys.com/MTM_Cann..._p/eqp_304.htm

The Deal from Chemical Guys is better, as you get the soap and cannon directly from them. I love the Honeydew, the most benefit for me is no more buckets!! Hope this helps and again, your car looks incredible!

Putting on my ZCP's back on because of this thread and wanted to get some input from our ZCP experts. I've read several threads regarding wheel vibration with spacers on stock ZCP's, some with chronic issues and some lucky ones with none. How many of you guys have/had this issue? Sorry to take this thread off on a slight tangent!

I've never had vibration due to spacer's, currently running 10mm squared. I've had vibration with almost every tire change requiring up to 3 road force balances to get it right. I returned a set of S04's to tire rack due to excess run out. With PSS's, I've always been able to get them dialed in. New tires, not spacers have been my vibration issues in the past.
