My Carbon Black Metallic F10

Mike30 · 11-01-2011, 01:09 PM

I am new to the forum. This is my 4th BMW (E39 528i, E46 M3, E60 335i) and 3rd European delivery. I do like F10 a lot. The color strips on the real bumper are flags of 22 countries this car went during ED. Both spoilers are aftermarket, painted to match trim. Tint is 30%. Wheels are 312 with aftermarket tires. All roundels are black /white. Name: BMW f.jpg

niice!!!

Mike30 · 11-02-2011, 08:43 PM

Thank you all for kind words, really appreciated.

The color of the car is Carbon Black Metallic with 6 layers of Zaino on the top.

The tires are Continental ExtremeContact DW in exactly the same size (275/30ZR20 and 245/35ZR20) as BMW runflats. I would like to have Michelin Pilot Super Sport, but canoot get the exact size.

The inserts on the door handles are covered with 3M tape, the rest is painted.

Both spoilers are attached with BetaLink glue.

And I know this does not belong here, but this what I traded in:

Nice - I only have 3 layers of Zaino, I need to get to work

The Conti's look like they fit perfect on those wheels, I'd like the PSS also, but the 245/35/20 are not available to at least after the first of 2012.

Mike30 · 11-03-2011, 10:25 AM

I suggest Z-CS as a last layer, especially when bad weathers are coming.

Side and Top View Cameras were priceless in Europe

jjgixxer · 11-09-2011, 09:48 PM

Looks clean and sexy!

tinybeammer · 11-10-2011, 12:09 AM

Congrats on your new sexy ride, love the photo and the car need a drop

Mike30 · 11-10-2011, 01:08 PM

I am thinking about the drop, but it does not look like there is much space left, especially with 20" wheels

masti99 · 11-11-2011, 04:45 PM

Nice setup!

Whostheboss · 11-13-2011, 09:19 PM

very nice, I like the 312's.
( I think you meant E90 335i and not E60)

XDEEDUBBX · 11-13-2011, 09:36 PM

i traded my E90 (same color as yours) 335i for my 535i f10...
