Here are the latest pics of mine whilst visiting family in Germany, now on its winter set-up 
(OEM 128 19", 245/275 with 15mm spacers on the rear)
I'm still thinking about lowering it, more at the front than at the rear to enhance that raked/slanted stance
Just worried about the impact on ride & handling. I was initially getting info about the Eibach Pro kit and more recently about the KW FSD... sounds like it could all get quite expensive... again

Were you not planning a black front grill?

Washed the baby today after driving up north to Lapland and had to take a pic from that beautiful sky...it was nice winter sunset and -11 C

I am not prepared for those temps, or any white stuff on the ground.
It actually snowed here yesterday - for about 10 seconds, and then came rain.
I do not even have a time with BMW to get my winter set up installed... Perhaps I should think about that!
Ok, back out to the yard to rake some leaves and power wash the garage floor!

I was, then I wasn't sure if I want that look. I like the contrast of the grill.
The USD is really cheap now.
Oops. Wrong thread!

I still have my ears on for finding another CF rear diffuser, and if I find one, I will let you know.
I did find a company in Singapore (of course) that will take a brand new M-Sport diffuser and cover it with CF wrap. They want 650 Euros or so for buying the diffuser and covering it, including shipping to Finland.
I have been in e-mail contact with RevoZport (California and Hong Kong) about the CF mirror covers ($230 including shipping to Finland). They guaranty that they will fit without any problems... Let me know if you want to buy a pair.
Their CF grill is $525 USD.

Just thought I'd share first image of new wheels.
17"?
I guess that you don't need winter tires in southwest France!
