I think if you're going to go that low you need spacers.

Nice, but it's too low for me. With many speed bumps in Holland, this low is not an option.
If u want a good deal, sent a PM to member 530da. He can offer m5 mirrors for a very good price. I also bought mine from him

By your pic, the rear suspension has only about 1,5cm to work with the oem stiff. Not a good thing if you travel at high speeds because it will hit the end of the suspension alot. I changed the place of the air compressor of the self levelling system when i made the quad mod, so i know pretty well how low you can go. Your car is now only for show.
You should also paint the wheels, something like gun metal. Now it looks like a cheap replica.
