Nice!! Tell him to add new pics with the bags!!! I almost set my H&R coils back before I installed them to go with bags, but figured I should not spend the extra $4000 price difference lol.

I had already ordered the wheels before that. Wheels take about 8 weeks to make lol. My first plans were to just get some 1 piece concave rims in the $2,000 price range and then get bags. But I went the other way around lol. I'm happy thought the closest bag installer near me is about 2 hours away and that's not worth it to me. Wheels will keep their value as long as I take care of them.

I stumbled across a link Romeo had posted in this thread a while back and sure enough it was still available. Looks pretty good. 1 or 2 spots the paint looks thin but only the owner would ever notice it

Cool thanks for the info. Assume the fitment isn't too bad, the typical eBay expectations.

I'll place my order today.

Best way to park!! I'd rather walk the extra distance then pay $ to fix door dings every few months. I had those same style wheels on mine when I bought it now they just lay in the garage.. Do you would what they could sell for? $600? $1500?

Yeah, had a shop in Seattle vinyl it. Turned out great. They did an awesome job.

Overall pretty happy with the way the cars turning out. Grille shows up next Wednesday and then the wheels go out for powder coating. Wife didn't want the wheels I picked out just wants these ones coated. So saved $2500 that will be going to the E92M fund instead.

I'm sorry for asking this, how much did you pay them? I've been thinking to tint mine for a while

Got my grille a day early and can't say I was a big fan of the center star. Seemed cheap in comparison to my factory one. Looked at the part number and sure enough these aftermarket grilles use one from a ML and aren't the same.

So I retrofitted my own housing/star into my aftermarket grille. Should have it complete tomorrow, ran out of time tonight, and need to grab some epoxy from work tomorrow to make sure it's secure. Required a fair amount of dremel work to the center. Looks much better though.
