UPDATE: Trim Done, Detailed - w/Pics

I finally got around to having my window trim Vinyl'd yesterday .. I think it made a night and day difference. I was unable to get a perfect Rim color match, so I went with 3M Gloss Black.

I think my mods are now complete .... accomplished what I wanted, without getting ricey (in my opinion). I could lower, but costly for a 1" drop when I will only have the car for another year or so, before I purchase an M3.

Thoughts ?

Looks good, but I agree with the drop and maybe even going up to 19's, I assume they are 18's.
I really like the blacked out look, congrats.

going up 19's doesn't really close up the gap.

I agree, prior to the 19's comment I agreed to the previous thread to drop it.

Just swap out the springs for the one year. Really not that expensive. Of course if you go with coilovers than it will get pricey

The Window trim? 1 hour (by an expert vinyl guy)

For me, about 24 beer if I had tried

Thanks for the response I am sure 24 beers for the expert would have made the 1 hour into 1 day. In any case I love the look. congrats!

What if I say 20s whats gonna be above rubber then?


I like you ride. Only problem is those side markers. The small ones are fine. The big one tho is too much for me. I'd paint it.





p.s. DROP IT
