Im not sure how fully black it is. I see blue and white spots on your wheels.

Nice Breytons tho. and as always. I dig that Dinan exhaust.

Good shots, but I dont understand why people dont do the normal shots when taking a photo-shoot. I would really like to see a plain side-on pic.

My car is too similar to this month's COTM. In fact, that's what sold me on the Breytons.

Wow, the first blacked out 135 I have liked. Wheels look insanely clean...kinda matte...in a good way. Nice work!

Clear corners would be nice, but I don't like the look of smoked/black tails.

Clean car and the rims look amazing! I really want these rims.

All you need is a spoiler and the exterior is perfect.

First thing I did was scroll down to see if you had the ceramic tips, and I wasn't disappointed! Car looks great.

I see you have the Dinan short shifter. Honestly, was it worth it? It's substantially cheaper than the BMW version, but they claim only a 7% reduction in throw.

I think it's worth it, but I haven't seen or felt the BMW Performance one so I can't say if it's worth spending a bit more for that one. The throw isn't significantly shorter, but it is short enough to make a difference.

What are the specs on your rims? 8.5's in the rear with 7.5's up front?
