Ok guys i finally got around to taking some pictures of my car. So far the car has 20 inch Donz euro stickers led license plate lamps and tints. In the near future im gonna do spacers, bmw wheel caps, whtie angel eyes, hid fogs (not sure what temperature yet) and interior leds also. Probably in a few months im gonna hit up the rpi website and do an exhaust, scoops, and intake. Now i love the rims im not sure about the chrome grill and chrome window trim. I personally always hated chrome on my any car but think it goes pretty good with the rims. Im not sure how it would look without chrome window trim and grills but am open to suggestions. Let me know what you guys think!

Not sure about the wheels. Somehow I think it doesn't go with the car but its still looking great overall. nice.
cheers
ps: For me IMHO, I prefer the black window surrounds.

Definitely get rid of the chrome trim on the windows, it'll look so much better.
As far as the wheels go, chrome lips is great, but chrome spokes... not so much.
Where were those pics taken? looks like flushing.. but when i looked at the housing, might be.. brooklyn or BX.
Come to the April 25th meet and you'll get plenty of ideas.
you'll probably go broke and use all your money before you even realize it on April 25th. LOL

Very subtle and classy, yet it conveys the message that you're a car guy. I really like the rims. Keep the chrome window surround, it matches the rims. A drop would complete the look.
