Why not simply from the beginning painting these accents with black gloss colour?

Nevertheless, your car is very nice, i love it!

I decided to go with the RKP Style Carbon Fiber Lip.

The 3D Style Carbon Fiber Side Skirts are on the way. I should receive it early next week.

The 3D Style Carbon Fiber side skirts should complete the look.

I'm going to try and photoshop it first to see how the hood grilles look in black.

I personally like what you did and all but my only change would be 4D gloss carbon fiber wrap instead of that dated matte stuff.

I like the 4D Gloss but the problem with it that the gloss part fades easily when exposed to the sun too much thus ruining the wrap.

The same thing happened on my gloss black roof wrap before. After 1 year there are faded spots all over the roof.

The matte carbon wrap that I have right now doesn't fade. I used it before on my door pillars and after 2 years it still looks the same.

Maybe I missed it in the thread, but this is an M5 conversion right? Don't get me wrong, came out very nice (love the CF accents!), but this seems like a LOT to spend that could have been put towards a higher powered car to begin with

i'll give my opinion - you chose the wrong front lip.

get the hood vents in carbon.

all else love it.

I wrapped the hood vents this morning and it took me 2 hours using the left over carbon fiber wrap from the roof.
