Well I painted my rims a satin black with gloss clearcoat. I need to do one more coat of clear on it to get the shine I want, and also need to put on the center caps, and //M badge thingies.

But I personally like it.

Lowering springs, M5 spring pads, euro trim, VHT tails and lip spoiler are next.

*Possibly* may attempt a black roof.

Still contemplateing on that though! :)

Sorry for the blurriness. Cheap camera.

Still need to mold the ducts into the bumper. Or create a lower lip to fill in the gap:

haha thanks his car has always been an inspiration to me.

And I agree, I will finish the shadowline when I match my calipers.

I usually love black wheels, but on your car ... not feelin' it.

I wuv it! I think it looks hot as is.

Thanks for the input! I am getting alot of mixed reviews on them. But I really like them.

That's all that matters. You're modding to please yourself ... others liking it is just an added bonus.

:buttrock Rock on!

I dig it... much better than before. with the rest of the shadowline will really look mean.

amazing. can't wait for my rims to get painted. i also got the E39 M5s. i'm probably painting my chrome trim this week. i just got my grill trim painted black. i guess now i know what M5s in black look like.

Those are some of the worst photos I've ever seen.

Thanks alot! If you do decide to paint your rims black, I would highly reccomend that you thoroughly sand them down. I used satin black on mine. They looked terrible before the clear coat. But after they look real mean.

Camera phone FTL.

very clean car mate. but personally, i prefered it originally. maybe i will like them more with the second coat of clear. but very nice ride

The car looks great. Some pics that aren't blurry would be great :) :) :)

I'll work on that when I get everything finished painting. But these were just to show how things were coming along.

Also what is yalls opinion on the calipers?

black calipers... i have never seen the point in showing off stock brakes.

Truth. I don't really want to go with black.

But I don't want to be a brembo wannabe with red calipers.

If you don't want to go with black the only other colors I would do would be a dark grey or silver.

Silver seems to be the best option. Thanks

Silver will probably look pretty good.

Your car needs a drop in front...bad. I think the new color really brought that out. Other than that, nice.

I think it looks great from what i can see.

If only our cars will last till September 5th 2098....

Agreed. I'm trying to source some lowtec springs at the moment.

Thanks. I looked at your sig, and for a moment I thought that clothles line post was your spoiler :)

haha. I don't think my sister will ever figure out how to set the date lol.

Just turn the date off

I have deep gold calipers which I think look amazing. IMO, they'd look nice on your color scheme.

Haha, i'll have to fix that one of these days.
