Correct on the camera and lights making it brighter than it actually is.

Don't agree about the stitching on the wheel clashing... once again... these pop a littlle more in photos than in person.....

Looks great, but man does it need a drop, I feel I can put my fist between the fender well and tire, too much clearance (no wonder it sits higher than a 135i!!!)

VO FTW, especially since those nasty US DOT amber reflectors are in the way.

BTW, any shots of the car with the AEs on, hoping they are LEDs not halogens?

I think the Orange looks incredible in this video, seriously considering it instead of white. Will soon know, only 4 more sleeps! LOL.
