That looks really well done to my untrained eye. Do you have body work experience?

Im really tempted to bring a set in soon. Need to finalize plans with my shop. Glad to see you used the flare and not the whole panel replacement and that it's working well for you.

What are you plans for the inner flare? I sourced the M3 inner flare from Germany. I really want it done properly.

I can help with the wheels as I've been in planning phase for this FOREVER.
the nonM E82 has a wider rear hub. This pushes the wheels outboard by 10-12mm or so. Given this if you don't use the Narrow Hub from the 330i or a full E9x M3 rear end (requires a custom prop shaft) you'll have to go with a 10mm higher offset than the 1M could otherwise fit.

What does this look like? Well, glad you asked. On my front end I'm currently running 18x9.5et22 with a 275 tire. With the narrow hub/real1M rear you can handily run 18x10.5et22-25 with a 295 or 305 tire. with a nonM rear hub you'll need around ET35 and tire sidewall could cause issues.

So why not do the narrow hub? The dilemma is between buying custom wheels or having a tricky brake setup. The rotors that fit the 135i brembos are the 330i Euro Performance rotors, which may limit things later on. I'm still working on this trying to find a Zimmermann rotor that fits the narrow hub and the F82 rear brakes.

Or we may just do 10mm wider rear flares than 1M to fit the wide nonM E82 hubs properly and I'll convert to a Stoptech or AP Racing BBK... But that's a third (and possibly best) custom solution.
