Want to add wheels and the CSL TRUNK & HOOD and then I'm done spending money for a while. Except for the Coil Overs to lower it a bit.

Anyway what do you guys think of the way it sits as of now. Rims are dirty due to the water shortage.

Yes. when I opened it up and saw no instructions what so ever I thought i was going to have to pay some body for sure. But after a couple of long nights after work I finally got it on. Scary part was drilling holes in the bumper for the mounting hardware. Plus you have to pull out out the fender lining and the under pan not too bad to get out but a pain to get back lined up when you put it back together.

Looks nice, but IMO the car needs a few more mods to pull it off 100%. Why the splitter as your first real exterior mod?

not sure, just liked the way it looked. It is definetly a work in progress. just showing pics of her along the way. Want wheels or the CSL trunk next. don't drive it enough to go crazy on the motor yet.

Also my wife says I need to paint it but most people I know say leave it alone.

It looks good but it would look better with the CSL trunk lid. I say color match it as well.

Agreed. And rims are a definite on this car, I really am not a fan of the stock M3 rims.

Time for my ignorant question. Why put a splitter on a convertible? Are you really adding some downforce in any meaningful way or is this just for looks?
