Tips need to be cut off, rear diffuser lines up perfect...how did that vhb tape work out for you? I'm going to remove both front and rear diffusers and use the vhb tape to close the gaps this weekend

You're not leaving that trunk roundel chrome are you? IND gloss black to match the badge(front and back)

Thanks for the tip on the tips, I already figured it out, it wasn't as easy as I thought, they had to cut it off and put extensions...
The tape worked alright not as good as I wanted it to work but maybe I didn't prep good enough or had too much pressure from tightening the screws, make sure u use alcohol wipes before applying, also apply on part not to the car!

I really don't care for roundels too much, not even know why I will be trying new hood pretty soon, I might get that IND gloss black roundels at that time!

so are you still going to bimmerfest or changed u mind towards Mpact?

on my way to BBS

In order to mount BBS I had to make some space since I can't fit wheels and tires in my car, I put my "old" 22" on until I'll find time to stop by the tire shop!
Sure I couldn't resist to take a few shots, they do look good, still!

after pretty hectic day, one shop refused to install them (afraid and no right equipment) I got it done at BMW service.

enjoy!

I bought it lowered on KW3, I think I'm too low in the front, I probably need to raise it up a little to make it leveled, just need to figure out how to go about it
