I did mine and left the wheels on. I can help you on Saturday (9-20-2014) if you need it. you don't need to do all that index card in the rim crap. it peels right off the tires. I can send you a pic of mine and how they turned out. I also did the badges...super easy and not a lot of time. now im looking at doing the interior trim either red or white. haven't decided yet.

Suggestions

Hey guys & gals,

Been a while since I was on. Have a few questions. Just picked up an f10 528 m sport, want to do some m conversions.

Those silver tabs on the fenders are driving me nuts. Thinking of getting two oem m5 fenders from tischer. Any suggestions on a fair and good quality body shop that would be able to paint and put them on?

Anyone have any good experiences with some replica m5 front bumpers that will match w oem m5 fenders?

Diffuser is next, anyone have a place that will make quad tips for the m5 diffuser?

Thanks!

[FS] SoCal - OEM Forged 220M from E92 M3 including Pre-LCI TPMS and tires.

$800

Fronts are wrapped with 50% PS2.
Rears have 15% PSS. Doesn't worth much but it will last ~1000 miles with the rear camber we have. They are thrown in for FREE!

Fronts: 19x8.5 +29
Rears: 19x9.5 +23

All wheels are balanced with aluminum tape to ensure wheel weights are secured. Aluminum tapes can be removed easily without leaving any residual. I can remove them prior transaction upon request.

See pictures below for current wheel condition.


Front wheel #1


50% Tread left on front wheel #1


Front wheel #2


50% Tread left on front wheel #2


Slight curb rash on wheel #2


Rear wheel #1


Slight blemish on rear wheel #1


Rear wheel #2

PM away!
