My Ride: 04 525i, 04 Dinan M3
I had needed to get my bumper repainted since it had a ton of rock chips from all the driving I do not to mention all the scrapes. About 3 weeks ago I hit some plywood on the freeway going about 80 so it took out my mtech bumper pretty good. I got a m5 one ordered and finally decided to do the side skirts. Got it installed a few days ago so I finally took some pics, although I didn't have my SLR so I had to use the iphone so the quality isnt the best. I'm happy how it turned out, the car was begging to have the skirts for a long time, just never got around to doing it.
Surprised that you haven't done the side skirts sooner.

My Ride: 545 modded the F out
Looks great man. I hate how pictures never really do black wheels justice. Unless you're using a really good DSLR paired with good lighting and maybe a little editing, black wheels always look lifeless. Congrats on the new mods. I gotta get my front end painted again as well.

for a while I started to buy into what people say about the wheel looking as if it blends into the wheel well, but thats just through pictures. In person darker wheels look MONEY!
