Updated look

The other weekend I finally went out and took some pics of my car with my new cf side skirt extensions and wheels. I'm debating if I should add some red vinyl accents to it or not. Thoughts?

My .02.... The car looks great! No on the red vinyl accents. I like the wheel color on AW but you don't need more red IMHO. Just needs a front lip and you're good to go

Definitely get some carbon accents. Carbon front splitters add an awesome look in my opinion

Agree. No to red vinyl accents. Let the wheels be bold. If you want any accents, sick with CF or Black

Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it!

The side skirts are AM Motoring, I got them from our forum sponsor.

Regarding a splitter, I would love to get one, but the reason I don't is because this is my daily and I live in Green Bay. I don't think it would last long in the winter plowing snow.

I have tossed around the idea of getting carbon side markers grills, but honestly, I kid of like the chrome.

CF splitters won't really impact ground clearance much, but you do need to watch out for curbs and objects in front as they stick out slightly.

Looks good!

Good choice on the wheels, F14s always look fantastic on E92s! The red finish looks good on your car, but I wouldn't add any more red accents as it would be too much IMO.

I (surprisingly) haven't had any issue with OEM splitters and I've had them on for a few years now (including winters). I say go for it, they're a nice subtle upgrade for the front fascia.

This is the truth. There is one kid on here who ruined his car with hideous stickers and gets very sensitive about it when called out. I'm pretty sure he's still waiting for me at the playground every day after school to fight about it. Don't be like that guy.
