iPhil · 03-09-2011, 06:14 AM

Carbon hood as requested.

Nice, thx.

Going for carbon components. I would
- keep the roof in its original AW or VO
- keep the rims in their original color
- make the grill matte black

Adding more CF to include both roof and hood becomes very very questionable. Remember, it is a slippery slope to the rice part of town. A few touches here and there can be tasteful, but applying the broad brush stroke can turn any car into a candidate for http://www.laughatrice.com/

Keep it simple, blacked out kidney grills - win. Blacked out exhaust tips - win. Blacked out chrome side markers - win.

So you will not be able to reproduce the optical effect you have i.e. on an M3.

Im not sure what you mean exactly. I wrapped my roof center section only and then individually wrapped the "rails" on either side. In total 3 pieces were wrapped. You can leave only the center wrapped and leave the "rails" body color if you choose.

My roof looks painted, you dont see any creases or lines, everything was tucked under the rubber stripping around the windows or those "rails".

Looks interesting in black.

n0n_0perational · 03-09-2011, 01:25 PM

everything looks amazing but i dont like the cf mirror on the alpine. or the cf hood on any of them.

first three shots are Pure W1n!!

HondaGoneRogue · 03-09-2011, 01:28 PM

Never liked black until I saw this.

they always get the nerdiest looking people to drive the cars

positiveions · 03-09-2011, 03:07 PM

i like the 1//M in black.

Dan Parker · 03-09-2011, 03:10 PM

If I see anyone add fake carbon fiber to a 1M I am going to key your car and slash your tires. Just sayin.

Thanks for the PhotoShop.

Wolf · 03-09-2011, 03:10 PM

wow, black really makes the 1M look reaaaaaaaaaaaalllyyy wide! I like it

skyphab · 03-09-2011, 03:51 PM

I like the photoshopped black ones more than the real.

Dan Parker · 03-09-2011, 03:55 PM

Sorry OP but I had to have one of your projects lowered with a light tint of Lamin-X on the headlights.

Joer · 03-09-2011, 04:27 PM

Nice work! Looks good in black. However just amazing in VO!!

d3l0n · 03-09-2011, 04:54 PM

GOLFFRR · 03-09-2011, 05:19 PM

biglare · 03-10-2011, 01:41 AM

In Love with the VO and black accents!

iPhil · 03-10-2011, 04:33 AM

LED angel eyes added.

bugmcw · 03-10-2011, 08:28 AM

OK i gotta ask. I am pretty good with photoshop, but this shit is nasty, how did you change the colors and keep all the dimension? Especially WHITE AND BLACK!? PM me please. I need to pick your brain.

emathis · 03-10-2011, 10:32 AM

[QUOTE=philip;9078419]I made a few impressions.

Carbon hood as requested + LED angel eyes

What a mess
I thought I'd be the first to get mine AW on May 15th looking like this one, except with a white stripe on the left side of the bucket with the indication BMW MOTORSPORT!
Why do my ideas always get stolen.....damn...

DiavelM3 · 03-10-2011, 11:10 AM

This thread just keeps getting better and better!

I've never been a big fan of black wheels but I must say, this rendition on the 1M is simply amazing! The CF hood on the VO is a very nice touch too..
