Those wheels actually look very good. Now you need the CF diffuser.

M badge??

You guys make me laught with all the M badge thing...

It was a gift from my girlfriend with the carbon spoiler when I bought the car last year. it was on when i pick it up at my dealer. To be honest, it never had bothered me since I saw all the M badge debate...

I think Ill take it off afer what I red and im not going out with her anymore, so...

For Villeneuve, we go at the same gym in montreal...

The rims look great! My AW M-sport is on order but won't be here until October probably since I ordered via Euro Delivery. I was planning on doing the exact same thing with my m-sport wheels. Who did you use to powercoat them? What was the cost? Thanks!

Nice setup!


May I ask how much did it set you back for the powdercoat? I'm thinking of doing the same thing.

Next time to bump into JV, ask him if they'll give him a test drive in an F1 car..I'm sure he's itching to get back now with slicks and less driver aids.

He was at monaco this weekend on the grid and the BBC grid reporter Martin Brundle asked what he was doing there and he replied with something along the lines of: Kind of here on my own, but these cars look fun and would like to get back into them...

Who knows, maybe we'll see Villeneuve back at Williams next year if they lose one/both of their drivers to other teams?

love the rims...you won't have to clean them much now. HAHA i am also a fan of the CF mirrors and spoiler.

i hate to be like everyone else, but yeah...the ///M badge is killing me too.

i love the Injen intakes in red. that would go perfectly with my CR interior. who did you get them through?

and nice photo op there with JV

i dont think ive ever seen a set of black rims that i like, but i dig those 261's. maybe its that most black rims seems like a big black hole, but since these are very open it looks cleaner. either way, good job.

m should go though.

hah, just looked at the pic again. i have a sweater like jacques shirt. bet he got it at simon's in montreal (thats where mine is from).

Did Villeneuve show you how to drive it?

He's making serious noises about driving in F1 again. Villeneuve FTW!!!!!!!

Awesome! I didn't think he deserved to be canned when they did it, he was doing a pretty good job -- although I certainly like Kubica better. What's up with photoshopping a roundel onto his honda overalls, though? Couldn't find a photo of him in BMW garb?
