It's was finally nice, sunny, and warm in New England this weekend! 
I was able to take some new pics showing off my new ACS front lip. I love this lip. It adds just enough to fill in the front. Thanks to everyone who posted their pics of this to help me decide on this.
I also put the EURO headlight stickers from Nick on. (Thanks Nick they look great!) I also took a pic of my new AIB V3's and 3000K yellow fogs during the day...WOW those things are bright even in daylight! Only a couple more things then I'll be done (famous last words
)
Enjoy everyone...

It look great! Just ordered my ACS roof & spoiler set yesterday and should got them soon. I did not like the ACS front lip spoiler, but they really looks good on your car. Especially with the yellow fog lights.
But I noticed on the 6th picture, there something underneath the center of the spoiler, is that the bottom of the OEM bumper?
Love it!

Plain and simple. Not a fan of the ACS rear spoiler. It's not ugly, but IMO it doesn't flow well with the rest of the car.Thanks for the complements though

Is the Long Island meeting June 7th or June 14th? C's Bimmer stated June 7th and you stated June 14th. 
Your car looks awesome.

I do...did have the roof spoiler on. It came off because it was a crappy replica and would not mold to the back window after numerous attemps. I bought a better quality new one and it's in the process of being painted and will be installed in a few days.

IF THATS WHAT YOU LIKE BY ALL MEANS... AS FOR ME I LIKE THE DECK LID FROM ACS.... other then that the car lQQks great!!!!!!!! love the front lip... now you said it was only a couple hundred bucks???? its a replica????
j/kYeah the lip itself was $180 shipped since it was a replica. The key is getting the prep done properly before it's primed and painted! Since it is a replica it was in rough shape for painting. It had many little imperfections that had to be sanded out or filled. Even will all of the prep work labor I still paid less than half of what an authentic would have cost after painting. An authentic would be around $1K and the prep/paint/install would be about $150-$200 so you would be looking at about $1200! I paid a total of less than $500 and you can't tell the difference! I even bought the mini ACS stickers of Ebay ($10) which I haven't put on yet to complete the authentic look!
Thanks again
