If you care to hear my opinion, it would look better if it is one solid color--all black or all red.

But as long as you like it...

maybe I can get some input here, I know this is an old thread,

but I was thinking of doing the black mesh cutout mod on the diffuser and then painting it tiag (titanium silver) and then having tiag mirror caps and tiag front bumper inserts- only the outside bar shaped ones, because the center front one is not all mesh, and possibly the paritally silver performance stripe, kind of borrowing a page from the porsche gt3-rs look, what do you all think, and yes I am from LA but no I am NOT a raider fan, unless their playing the cowboys- no offense intended

i like the TiAg stripe and mesh idea, but I personally don't think the mirror caps would "fit" neccessarily...It's your beast though, so do with it what you please...

ps...unless you got a "raider nation" sticker or the infamous sheild, i dont think it would scream raiders at all...

Why not a more aggressive color? how about the blue showcased on the Tii concept? Perhaps the green or orange from the GT3's?

I'd do the accent color on the 1) mirror caps, 2) diffuser, 3) spoiler, 4) kidney grills outer, 5) calipers, and possibly some decals.

Lowering the car on some aggressive wheels and a debadge would be a must.

http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=135870 hmm pretty good idea, this e92 335i with M3 modifications came out damn good, I like the silver because it's easy to get mirror caps to start the project and it's a little more subtle than the aggressive green or orange
