Here is what I've done to mine.. Most are OEM upgrades. I'm an insurance agent, so I tried to keep it as OEM as I coudl because I know the OEM stuff is covered and the aftermarket you have to insure for more premium.. Hope this information is helpful. If you need specs feel, freel to pm me.. I'd be happy to help. I had to trial and error and wasted a few thousand..

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder but look how nice those wheels look in silver and then in black. Can you even see them in black?

For a cheaper alternative that has a similar look I got the BE by Breyton GTS-AV from TireRack at $219 each.

I had the m3 comp wheels.. They didn't fit and only looked nice during the day and upclose when just washed.

There is an m3 sedan black with the m3 black wheels looks nice on an all black car I think..

Heres mine. Recently just had the wheels re-coated to this color. As you can see in my Sig they used to be white. Wanted something different as everyone seems to go black now days but then got bored with them. I think they have more depth now. Most of my mods are in my sig. I also have euro headlights added so no amber 3 fin carbon fiber diffuser and inside alcantera trim pieces. If youd like a pic of that let me know I'll snap one and post it.

No one that I know on on this board has been sucessfull with opening and re-sealing the headlights to do an amber delete other than OSS designs or republic wrap works. This was a complete headlight swap from my USDM ones to the euro clear marker lens ones. Swap was pretty easy. Cost was a bit on the high side but mainly did it cuz the guy was local an thought I might never get another chance like that. I still have the ones with the amber like the pic n my sig

How bad did it stick out? Fender rolling didn't give enough room?

Thanks.

Fender roll and pull and pin removal on the struts won't make it fit. They were et35 for three series. The tires would shred in 10k miles. I still have the set but selling them to a friend with a new f30
