Looks like how my car would look if I upgraded to M5 rims! However if you didn't notice yet, your tire treads are facing the wrong direction.

Arhhh! You're absolutely right. The tire shop that installed my tires screwed up. They'll have to remove the tire from the two affected wheels and turn them around.

Left Front = ^, Right Front = v (wrong direction)
Left Rear = v (wrong direction), Right Rear = ^

I looked at the tires and on each tire sidewall it tell you which sidewall faces left and right.

Thanks for the heads up! Would not have seen that. That is the reason why I joined this forum. The members here have the best attention to detail.

WOW, nicely seen. Such an eye for details (but that are really important details )

just like the M5 except for the side mirror, but it's looking great with the original mirror, congrats

i had the same bug on me, but too bad that my bug is not wealthy enough to pay for my AC kit, and the lighting right at this moment <_<
