Here you go....pictures don't do the paint job justice. Once it hits the sun you can see the flake real good. Its 2015 GM Unrippend Green! The wheels were originally gunmetal but had them powdercoated Gold Medallion. Would have loved to have them in the Titan Bronze though.

At first I thought the wheels were Unripened Green and I am looking at the pics and thinking, "why is it called green if there is no green?"

Aaaaaand then I noticed the car was green!!
Great colour, we need better pics ASAP.

Why did you repaint the car?

That was just Eibach Pro-kit springs on M-Sport shocks. I increased the lateral rigidity with M3's ARB's, bushes and arms but that did nothing to the ride height.

I always meant to swap the M-Sport shocks out for Bilstein B8's (making the B12 kit) which would have given me another 5mm (due to shortened shock) or B14 coilover's for full height control but, I never got round to it as I made an impulse decision to buy a C63 Coupe.
Alas the 135i went up for sale and was sold withing 24hrs of advertisement so, I didn't have time to think really, hence no further pics since these.

All I'll say is that these springs were a great improvement vs. M-Sport springs but, they didn't come into their own until I swapped the rear subframe bushings and ARB's. The damping from the M-Sport shocks was ok, but not something I planned to live with had I kept it longer.
