I am glad it worked all out. Cool pedal arent they?

I like them a lot. If you step into the car there another feeling of the cockpit.
Hard to explain. Its something that pleases yourself

Yep. I am very happy with them. Let's see how long the rubber lasts, that gives the pedal its grip. But for a total of 44$, I may order myself a new set after a while.
The mirrors are going to be something else...

Awesome ride... Especially love the wheels. Just curious though, how do you like the Michelin's? I have ordered my 128 wheels and am still deciding which tires to get.

Have only driven the car for a week, and had to leave my baby behind, since I am on a business trip now.
I can say that the ride is very very smooth. The car easily absorbs the ride with the 19" wheels.
I was a bit worried about that before my purchase, until my dealer set up a test drive with an E60 with exactly the same wheels and body kit.
No problemo whatsoever!

I did a bit of reading myself before I got them, and nothing else than positive comments, as far as I am aware.

Hey Joel, forgot to mention in last post, but your tires are the summer performance tires. Michelin offers those same tires in All Season. Am debating now. Do you or does anyone know if summer performance has more or less noise inside the cabin than the all seasons?
