Hahaha.... I was looking in the Gallery a few days ago and peeked inside your gallery. I didn't even realize you had changed the R10s to black. ![Doh](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/doh.gif)

Spend the Friday afternoon at Carlab and have them install my sachs suspension kit and BBS RGR wheels.
One word: Awesome!
It lowers the front by 1.5" and 1.2" in the back. The front is slightly lower than what I like, but way better than the stock non-sport suspension. The 19" BBS RGR looks great on it.
Yes, I need to take some pictures, give me a few days for them
Carlab in Santa Clara is so cool, thanks Darwin for getting the longer bolts and covers for me. The stock bolts is a little too short for the RGR, but Darwin find some longer ones and even have black covers for them, match perfectly with the diamond black finish
Also, nice to meet you too Freed0m, I finally meet the other eviltwin, hahahhahaha
The ride is stiffer and a bit noisier (noiser from the thinner tires), but it's better than what I thought. It will be nice if I do these two mods separately so I can see how each mod affects the handling. I didn't drive it too hard yet since I have my old wheels and suspension parts in my car on Friday, can't wait 'til Monday and do some more driving!
Next on my list is a short shift kit.....
