I'm sorry but I don't like it. I think it looks better with chrome/polished lips to add contrast. To each his own though.
Its not too late, you can still paint the lips silver

I had the same problem b4 i did it thinking that it was going to be to much black and not enough contrast.. but u have to see it in person and driving, i feel like it makes the car 10 x more aggressive looking.. but your right to each his own..and for me ive got that puppy love feeling once again!! haha

I really like it!
this is exactly what I want to do but I would switch out the polished center cap to a black and silver carbon BMW one.
Are they painted or powder coated?

Oh crap... Same setup as me! Those are iForged correct? I have the new 'Drift' wheels with black lip + black face. I like the polished lip, but black on black wheels w/polished lip is getting a little played for me (especially in SoCal)...I'm sure it looks 100x better in person. Pictures never do cars enough justice. That is freakin' sweet! Good job.
