Finally got my wheels. All I need now if for my springs to arrive. Ordered from ACS springs CEC and i've heard "2-weeks" every time i check in on them, ordered them in oct. Anyway, now they are saying early january. Until then, it sits like this.

Mods so far:
Meisterschaft ev controlled
Vorsteiner rear diffuser
HM style front lip
Dinan stage 3
Blacked out grills, side markers, etc
JL Audio 10w7 in the trunk
Upgraded center Chanel speaker
Tint
DVD in motion
Vossen cv3's in matte graphite
Painted calipers blue

First pics are trading in my old e60. It was sad driving away in an all stock car...

Debated it for a while. I thought it might be too aggressive and I'd get shit for it in the office.

Once I saw it on the car, I knew I made a good decision.

The day I put it on, I got a text from the president of our company right after he walked out of the office saying it looked great and asking where he could find one for his new SL...

It's the perfect combination of aggression and refinement in my opinion. And sounds like the Pres. has good taste!

More to come:

Stage 4 intercoolers & tune
Vorsteiner front lip
M5 sway bar
ACS springs (would rather do coilovers but don't want to loose ddc)
Back to the stereo shop for some fine tuning
Last thing will be full paint correction then opticoat

Hope to have it done for next sat but doubt it will be done
