Does anyone have photos from the top angle for each wheel? I want to see it front on, not at an angle like this. I can't decide between the bottom three on the pic!

Hey Carlos,

Are you going to set a cut-off date for finish selections? Or is it at the time of initial payment.

It would be nice if you did set a date a few weeks out so that we could get an idea from the folks over at e90post what the finishes look like mounted up. Of course, only if this didn't delay our production/shipment/ect...

I'm pretty set on Signature Silver, but could be swayed to Diamond Black. I've already paid the initial payment.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

seeing these mounted up would be *sweet*, however, i will be the guinnea pig and take the dive if needed...they're going to look/perform amazingly I already know that, I just hope the pictures are pretty accurate in terms of color/shade.

Hmmm, decisions on finish.. I'm leaning towards Diamond Black, I think it'd go well with shadowline trim, though I've never done dark wheels on a color like Blue Water before...

Smoked Titanium looks much darker in these photos than the other photos where they are laid flat. Smoked Titanium looks like Diamond Black in these photos..

Can anyone from MORRS post better pics ?

Is diamond black actually black? Or is it sort of dark grey? Damn this is hard!

Guys, the finish selection is set with the final payment. So please send your deposits with any finish. You`ll have about 6 weeks to make your final selection on finish. So if you are not sure just select anything and we`ll update it later.

We have received several deposits already. Lets conclude all of them so we can start production next week. :biggrin:

Carlos
Great!

Thank you for bringing your wheels to the 1ers.

This is going to look SO much better than the stock wheels, and weigh less too. And i'm sure there's decent room for a drop if I decide to go with those KW V1 coilovers. :headbang:

You need to sign into you google account(or create one) then on the checkout page you should be able to access the different shipping options.

Carlos - correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the diamond black is a black paint that is slightly translucent so that there is a hint of the metal below showing through.

From the 20 or so pictures on e90post, that is what I could gather. It looks like a killer finish and I'm really torn between it and the signature silver, on a sedona red car. Anyone want to chime in on sig silver vs diamond black on sedona?

Nope. I have a Google account and I have used it to purchase other things such as Riss Racing products. But Morr has set it up to accept shipping addresses to US only eventhough Carlos has told me it is ok previously. I think they just need to fix up their Google Checkout account.
