The Pirelli P Zero the Hero are great

Not so good for your wallet, though

Ive been in Singapore the last few days and I notice there are more F10's than in HK. Mainly 523i. Maybe its just my focus.

Going to get them? Our cars will look the same then.

Just considering. Not sure about the lips as the ramp at my parking lot is extremely steep. Probably will do a drop so the lips will be trashed.

RC3 · 09-28-2010, 04:49 AM

chiver, I remember you are getting the 19" 331 wheels? If so, 19" tires should be more easy to your wallet.

Grateful if you would let me know the price after getting your tires. Just for reference.

I think most Signaporeans are getting the 523 since the tax there is even more harsh than here. And I think their 523 spec is different from HK

Yes I'm getting the 331's. Called the guy to see what stock they have but havnt gotten back to me. I'll let you know the prices when I get them.

mlai · 09-28-2010, 06:24 AM

Finally got a chance to take the car out for some sunny day pictures. And these set of pictures cost me a fortune as I was away from the stock mkts

First, some mean pictures

Option external Aluminium Satined gives it the glossy black treatment on the external mirrors and B Pillars.

Additon on the rear deck: OEM BMW CF spoiler

mlai · 09-28-2010, 06:28 AM

Close ups on the 3D Design front lips. They are not that much lower than stock but does stick out a bit on the front.

Here is the front lip with the BMW 356 20" . Note that the low of the front lip is not much lower than the standard side skirt after the wheel.

The 356 wheels in detail. Tyres: Pirelli P Zero (the Hero) 245/35R20(F) 285/30R20 (R)

juztinl · 09-28-2010, 06:34 AM

very nice mlai. rims look very good and i love the front lip.

mlai · 09-28-2010, 06:41 AM

Interior. Black/Black. No choice as I have pets and kids.....

Wait. Not all black. Look!

Thanks. The front lip would have looked even meaner if I got them coated with carbon fibre.......

juztinl · 09-28-2010, 07:05 AM

i like it this way. a lip this big in carbon fibre might look a bit out of place.

RC3 · 09-28-2010, 09:41 AM

excellent photos, mali. those rims really look mean.

you mentioned you got the alum. satin trims as option. however when I ordered my car, the dealer said the satin trims are HK standard. is that in-compentant dealer gave me the wrong info. again?

I checked an they are optional. HK get the aluminum trim but not the glossy black parts for the external mirrors and B-pillars.

Actually, they are around the same width as stock, rear is slightly larger at 285 instead of 275 stock. Not huge by any standard

ROBD314 · 09-28-2010, 11:03 AM

Looks Great ! BTW, the glossy black treatment on the mirrors has nothing to do with window trim, it is because you have the side and top-view cameras...

Are you sure? I test drove a heavily optioned 550i F10 (surround view, dhp, ...etc) and the bottom part of the side mirrors on that car (and the B-Pillar) are matt black instead of glossy. I even commented to the salesperson saying that glossy would have been nicer.

grimlock · 09-28-2010, 11:14 AM

i think there are 2 black side mirror bottom parts .. one matt one glossy
non surround cam cars have body color paint there..

u like the glossy black? i wish they had a matt black door trim - i want to change, but no choices ..
