Kinda hard to pick, but here are some that arent too outdated. As soon as the wather gets better here I plan on taking some really nice shots around the DC area since the Cherry Blossoms have bloomed

OMG. I love white with PC'd 166's and a wrapped roof SO MUCH! DROOL!!!!!!!!!!



YOU PINDY'S! ALWAYS UBER MODS!

I love it. I can see all the mods w/o telling me.

- New tips / or RPI exhaust
- Full mtech kit
- Lowered, looks like coilovers or H&R sport drop
- OEM 166s, powder coated black, looks awesome
- Vinyl black wrapped roof
- Brabus lighting upgrades in the front
- M5 trunklid spoiler
- Akaius euro stickers on the side markers
- Black grill
- Those unique looking eBay side blinkers with the metal strip that goes through them (looks like what the 6 series has)
- Something like 20% tint in rear and sides, slightly lighter on front two windows
- ACS or RDSport roof spoiler (or am I seeing things?)
- Trunk finisher
- OEM LCI tails
- Shadowline trim (unless you already had a sport model)
- new paint job? guessing? Looks like a two tone white color.

AND THATS JUST EXTERIOR! Yea, I'm pretty sure you're about $13,000 in the hole. =p Plus you have a V8 which means your car sounds mean unlike my bitch-on-wheels Inline-6. /cry.

LOVE the Aggressive look of the wheels. Looks like they filled out the wheel well too. That is what am looking to do with mine. I want 19" as well. JUST like yours. Gimme some tips, on the wheels/tires itself. I have a 2008 528i

I want to repair the curb rash, keep the centers matte black and do the gloss black lip. I wish I had Photoshop, I'd see how they look with body colored lips

pjinca, if it were my car I would make the lip chrome (as it probably was in the beginning) and the center a polished aluminium. I think it would really help show the beauty and actual pricetag of your wheels much more than just matte black (which to me) looks like a wheel that has a bunch of brake dust on it and no shine or definition.

Eh, silver wheels on a silver car just goes off the bland end. Way too monochrome for me, I like the contrast black wheels give my car.

What about gloss black all around? At least then it'll have a shiny finish, right?
