Thanks for the comments.
RE: questions/comments:
I bought the rims from Garry but I'm also from LA so I shipped them to my CA address.
They're 19".. BMW OEM only comes in this size.
They're not that expensive but it cost me double since I had to buy them TWICE!!!
Also, regarding shadowline, I'll just stay with what it is... hehehe
I'll put up some more pics after I get a chance to take some pics!

If you're going to bring the toes into it, then you might as well get Mike to put on an M-Sport pack, Quads, Remap, Tints........

For me, the only thing left is the remap, Mtech sides, and that's it. I'm tinted sides/back--can't see in at all. The front tint, I'm still thinking since it's illegal to tint too dark but I would want a uniform look tint-wise...
Ride-wise, it's smooth. Not that rough. Actually feels pretty good. Acceleration is much better with the grip of those big size rims and CSC3's.
I'm set!
Pics to follow once I get a chance to take some.
