List of mods so far:
- 20% tint
- fog light delete
- OEM 135i M-sport axleback (black tips)
- Resonator delete
- Golf tee mod
- black grills & diffuser
- Style 264 wheels
- upgraded 225/40 & 255/35 non run-flat tires
- 15mm front/12mm rear spacers
- CDV delete
- BMW Performance Shifter

Next up:
- M3 front sway bar

Stock with 17" wheels





First, blacked out emblems & diffuser



128 exhaust had to go. Picked up a 135 axleback and had the resonators deleted. (and golf tee mod lol)





Found some style 264's online for a great price, picked them up.



Went with 225's in the front and 255's rear.



Still wanted the car to have a meaner look to it. Dipped the wheels to see how they'd look black.



It was alright, got old quick for me. Took the dip off, considered dropping on h&r supersport springs.




looked cool, but too low for me. Used the money instead on some 15mm/12mm spacers.




spacers on, quick wash...

it really depends on the wheel imo. black wheels can definitely look good.
