Splurge for the wheels first man. One of the most dramatic changes next to a body kit.

I have drilled and slotted. And yes, I got them from Anthony
As far as I know you do not have an exhaust yet do you? I would put the money for the ECU towards an RPi exhaust...btw...don't get a set of replica wheels like VMR or Miro, I can get away with it down here, but there are so many potholes up where you live those wheels will be bent in a heartbeat...
About rims: I am not a huge fan of replicas altogether. And putting on replica wheels on a car with ALL authentic and OEM mods would be like throwing a pair of old Nikes on while wearing an Armani suit. It may look funky and fresh, but ultimately, would be a fail. Besides, none of their styles truly works with my Alpina kit anyway

But aside from sleep, sex and eating, this is the best thing I could possibly imagine myself doing.
And quite often, I postpone/forgo at least two out of those three in the name of Cardom

The stealer put a scratch on the front of it a while back from those parking thingys. It was probably there when you seen me, but since then there have been rock chips, another scratch, I would respray it, but Joe refuses. If it was his boat now on the other hand it would have been done already..lol..I also had to replace the drivers side skirt cause the valet drove my car off a curb and basically ripped the skirt into 2! grrr.. Its all done now though, me and Joe even changed the coil since the cylinder was misfiring, so she seems all good now.

PM me your price on B8's for the Xi, please.
I know they aren't yet available in the States, but the MSRP was set already a month ago, maybe more. Its coming soon, so your Bilstein rep should have some knowledge. I'm in no hurry to do this, but I need new suspension no matter what.
