New to the F10 family! New shoes on already

Hey everyone,

I certainly not new to modern BMW's. I've had an f30 335i, currently have a '17 X3. Used to have an F15 but it was totaled. Hence the F10.

Purchased in April, I've been lurking ever since.
Current Mods:
1. M5 style grills
2. Euro Plate
3. Black door handle trim
4. M5 style rear spoiler
5. Vertini custom rose gold 20" wheels

Next will be lowering

Welcome!! Looks super clean.

A few recommendations
1) Front Lip
2) Painted front reflectors to get rid of the orange (I personally got all three, front, side and rear) : https://ind-distribution.com/product?sku=IND-F10-FREF

Congratulations on the pickup! Just a suggestion since you went "in your face" with the rose color choice which I think is sweet looking but compliment it with some aggressive styling exterior components or else the wheels at least to me will look out of place. For the spoiler in the rear either the new M3/M4 style that I've seen recently or 3d or high kick style. Upgrade your diffuser to M5 style, DTM or 3d? Like Ickdeep recommended lip spoiler up front and painted reflectors from IND. And finally some side skirt extensions to tie everything together!

Sorry, but those seem kinda out of place on a white car to me. But when it's approaching dawn, I bet they look totally dangerous!

But on a bright day, they seem 'off'. Maybe pics don't do justice.

in person this color is pretty sweet so as long as it's complimented with the right cosmetic looks. on a bone stock F10 yes...it's out of place! but like i suggested to him he's gotta go aggressive with this since the wheels are pretty LOUD!
