Yes I got the anthracite headliner cause I thought the standard grey looks strange w the cinnamon. Mlai is closer . Took those pictures in happy valley.

agree. the cinnamon looks good with the anthracite headliner.

I was told by my dealer that cinnamon can not get the anthracite headliner. that guy is so un-professsional.

These people have no clue. The only way I was able to get the headliner was because I was able to get the option number thru this forum.

Chiver, now that you've got your baby, time to think about what toys and clothes you are going to get for your F10!

chiver · 10-02-2010, 07:40 AM

Actually I'm thinking of getting a tint. One of my regrets is not getting the rear sun blinds. Also thinking about your front lip. Would like to see it in person first though!

mlai · 10-02-2010, 07:44 AM

Had the lips for a week now. It is not low but does protrude a bit in the front. So when I go slightly fast, the lip will scratch the begining of the up-ramp or end of the declining ramp

Not much problem with speed bumps, though.

chiver · 10-02-2010, 07:55 AM

Do you think it's easily scratched? What colour is it under the paint? If it's black it may be ok as I have a dark car.

I would suggest you paint the lower part matt black. But to be honest, it is the underside of the lip that could be scratched and will not be that noticeable.

But then, it hurts every time i hear the lip scraping against the ramp

juztinl · 10-02-2010, 08:44 AM

it really does hurt. how much lower does the lip make the car sit?

Probably 15-20mm lower than stock on the front.
