Deflectors and LED fogs are next on the list. Under the hood lies a BMS stage 1 and eventually ACS springs and spacers are going on as well. Rims were painted gunmetal but I might be switching to black chrome soon. Thanks for the feedback.

Looks like a 20 year old owns the car.

That's a custom straight pipe exhaust coupled with Eisenmann replica tips and the M5 diffuser. Also added two magnaflow resonators right before tips and it sounds magnificent!!!! Deep German sound and no annoying drone whatsoever!!!!

At what point do people stop blacking out grills and putting on black wheels? 7 series? Rolls Royce?
I guess I am a purist. I like my BMW as it is. I did tint the windows to protect the interior. To me all of these Mods look like something someone would do on an old Honda Civic or Acura Integra.

It looks NOTHING like a punk Honda or Acura that proceeds in a distasteful manner. Now lets assume he applied some ridiculous BMW Racer/BMW Owner decals located@ the windshield or rear window and transformed the headlight colors to disco setting -- then it translates to the ricer-esque machine. And to the OP, engaging to his taunts and mockery is just silly -- being spiteful is just as bad. I would just apologize and say sorry I can't cater to your tastes haha. Though, I can't blame you since your shirt was pulled a few times. |

I'm certain BMW themselves would take issue with you about black grilles and black wheels not being puritan as they are genuine OEM options within their product line.

Going to be going with coils during the winter. While the drop was a huge improvement over stock, the H&R drop now looks stock-ish to me and deceiving my eyes lol. |

Thank you guys for backing me up!!! I think I tried to be nice and brush it off the first comment around but gramps didn't let it go. I am all for constructive criticism and I value it. For example, since the pics I have color matched reflectors and LED fogs cause I listened to the suggestions of the forum members.
