My Ride: See my signature
Nice combo of the 167s with the M5 pieces. To me, the 167s are much more attractive than the 166s.
But get prepared to hear a barrage of posts urging you to lose any M5 badging.

Looks great! But, is there a color match issue with the front bumper?

maybe its just me but i think his car is at a perfect height. i think when a 4 door sedan is slammed to the ground it looks stupid. i understand a drop but not dropping it to the ground.

Illustrative was the mismatch I endured when I had my dealer spray my front (M-Tech aftermarket) fender reflectors "Alpine White" to match the factory Alpine White car. Once painted and installed in the bumper, the reflectors were too dark. But once removed and set on the hood, they perfectly matched the AW on the factory painted metal hood.
