Arkym! I think CSL trunk looks better on a E90 IMO.

Going for a full back face-lift. M sport rear + Amuse + LCI tailights. Other than that, front is going to have aero lip. I'm still sitting on stock 189's but hopefully I'll be able to find a set of wheels that interest me.

Can't decide if I want to go with silver/ polished lip or black- window trim is still chrome because of this as well since I'd want the trim and wheels to match even though I have matte black grills on right now.

I'm so brainwashed on the VMR V710's, used to have those on my M sport e90. Oh and m3 sides are also planned for the near future.

niceee same plans i have for my rear.

no matter what wheels you end up going with I would black the trim out, I really don't like the way the chrome looks. The Stock 189's can look very aggressive if you have a drop!

If that's the case, I might either paint it black or vinyl wrap it. Gloss black or matte black? Car is sparkling graphite so I'm thinking matte would look better. I know I may get smashed for saying this but I was never a huge fan of drops.. especially since my driveway is slanted. I'm even concerned about putting the aero lip on.

matte looks better unless it's a black car.

sport springs are cheap and lower the car just enough to get rid of the wheel gap but don't have to worry about scrapping anything, i just don't know if the mods you have planned will look good unless you get ride of that stock height

problem is I already scrape unless I go up the driveway at an angle lol. I'll look into springs, I remember a while back when I was planning on dropping the car I ended up liking the H&R sports. There was one fs locally for like $100 that I should have jumped on. I heard the install is a PITA though.

Wow that's a steep driveway lol, it's not too bad, just have to have someone with a lift and a spring compressor, we did mine in a little under an hour
