multiple pieces. it was pieced together around the vents and headlights but its not noticable at all

definitely looks better with the fenders color matched.

Haha yeah the first iphont pics i took the car was a mess. Didnt have the right shit holding the fenders on, no spacers, and the car wasnt even fully wrapped.

I commend you on thinking outside the box and doing something different! Has some real potentional to look pretty good I think with a few light finishing touches on the flares! But overal I'm digging it, nice color too!

BTW: Where did you get the flares..... Def interested for myself, been looking for a mold myself to widen out the rears and mold them up.

I got them online. Theyre datsun 280z flares so theres a bunch of different ones. Just pick the one you like. They basically all fit

So my sister got a Nikon D3200 for christmas and i borrowed it from her and took some pics and edited them with iphoto for about 5 minutes. ive never had experiences with photography so dont say my pics suck.

As for the picture with no wheel, should i get bigger spacers and powdercoat mine matte black faces with gloss black lips?

I was expecting a showroom clean BMW, wasn't expecting a mint colored E92. Love the color!

Nono your car looks amazing, What i ment as mint is a stock couple year old 335 that looks like it came of the production line yesterday. the color mint didnt come up to my mind when the word came up. im sorry if I sounded insulting..

oohhhhh okay

No. I think you lose too much contrast with Black. The white works very well for this set up. I do however recommend the larger spacer as I always have. 1st few pics look great btw.

im gonna get different flares like Fortune335 with the big ricer wing. theyre a little smaller and theyre better looking so I wont need bigger spacers. and thanks

different

ArthurL · 01-07-2014, 09:49 AM

It's not too baddd....

I'd lose the black rivets and go for matching ones. I also see space between the fender flares and your actual fenders, try to make it flush.. I think it'll look MUCH cleaner that way.

Plus although I like your wheels.. I don't think they look right with a European car. Those deep concave Forgestars, however, would look amazing. Maybe get the wheels powdercoated to a gunmetal color would make it look more aggressive.

i plan on getting new wheels. most likely ccw lm20 or classics. 18x13+0 rear 18x10.5 +0 front. 6 inch lips rear 5 front. either brushed face with polished lip or matte black face with gloss black lips and gold hardware. Once i get these wheels ill be taking the wrap off anyways.

Not my taste... at all.. but if you like it .. all the power to you

bamboostk86 · 01-07-2014, 05:03 PM

Leave the wheels man they"re good the way they are, these pics remind me of an ugly chick at the bar that looks hot under the dim lighting.

Craving for mint chocolate chip now.
Nice matching color and wheels. Like flares but not digging those rivet holes.
