Thankfully the best looking wheel is the least expensive. Now that I have decided on that I have to make the decision on which body modification to get. My car aspires to look as awesome as yours one day. I'm thinking about the acs lip kit. I found a full kit for just under $500 whereas the M-Tech was $900+. Any recommendations?
P.S. xman I decided against iPod integration kit, I'm just going to do aux port from bavauto. Only $69.99!

Her and PTL are the ruthless. 
VB3 CSL wheels are sick make sure Michael hooks you up with an aggressive offset, it'll look very nice.

You will, buddy. You'll be broke but your car will look awesome. For body kit, you should consider the Umnitza front bumper and side skirts. It's inexpensive and looks nice. A few members have them and they are very happy with the quality and fitment. And for the iPod, if you want something within budget, that is not a bad idea. Otherwise, Dension 500 is also a good option. But it'd run you about $500 for the unit and maybe a few more for idrive programming at the dealer. So, here are some of my suggestions. GL buddy.
I found the acs lip for $125 w/ shipping and you get a pretty good look with that. The whole bumper sets me back $400 and will cost at least double the lip will in paint. Do you think the lip looks bad? The skirts are definitely a good idea though...

I can get the acs kit for less than the umnitza bumper alone... Does everyone think it's trashy or something?
This is unrelated but what tint % did you use around your car? Even windshield and rear. Thanks
