Looks great! I really love the headlight mod, but I don't think I'll be able to justify that one.

I'm nearly done myself. It's been fun but expensive. I'll be getting my first factory oil change in a few weeks in a few weeks. After I have a chargepipe, etc to install. Then I'll decide on a tune, probably GIAC.

I still think you should go with the MadDad Street axleback. I'm almost tempted to trade mine in for one when it comes out but I like my car on the quiet side.

Btw, if you think you are half done, I bet you are more like 1/3 done..lol.

What color is your car? Are the spoiler and diffuser bmw performance or icarbon? I was at ltbmw yesterday and he said you had just left before i came. Would have been cool to see your car in person.

Wheels:
VMR V701 19 x 8.5 ET45 front and 19 x 9.5 ET45 rear

Tires:
Falken FK452 235/35/19 front and 255/35/19 rear

Suspension:
H&R Sport Springs and stock shocks

1.5 Month After Thoughts:
I don't suggest this setup to anyone. Only to people who are willing to push the limits. All for of my corners rubbed. To be clear... The front rubbed on slight dips with only myself in the car so I had to do a roll and cut the plastic tab down. That solved the problem in front unless I hit a huge unknown/unseen dip. That's when I'm screwed. The rears do not rub with only myself in the car unless its a really bumpy road and I'm going highway speed. The rears will rub with 3 people in the car on turns. I will get a minor roll in the rear and I should be fine. No cutting required. No negative chamber calculations.

Still rub (rear) with three people in the car but only on dips. Can't really do much about that.

Hope this helps everyone!

haha I have some parts laying in my room right now, I need to get a few things sorted out before I can get them installed HOPEFULLY by the end of this month. I'm eying the LUX bulbs and BMW performance exhaust, those will be next on my list. Maybe just a few little things after

Monaco blue, it was only out for the 1 series for a couple of years, now its discontinued. Icarbon diffuser with autoteknic spoiler, both had a few fitment issues that I don't really mind. I was his firs customer yesterday, I left around 10. Guess I missed you haha. I'm there often.

I like the chrome since it gives good contrast to the blue and black would just blend the lines in too much. So I'm keeping the chrome no matter what.
