♪♫♪I Got New Shoes On The Ride♪♫♪
 
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqL9NvKE6Bs

Hey,

Just threw on some new wheels over the weekend. Just looking for some feedback - positive or negative. Let me know what you guys think of the ride in general so far.

I did a quick photo shoot today for about 5 minutes. Just took some plain shots from all angles. Don't comment on the photography skills cause I'm no photographer, nor am I trying to be one.

Thanks.

looks nice, i would change to the euro clear headlights though.
or the 09 lci headlights, they have the same fitment

danizer 10-27-2009 11:12 PM

sweet! loving the look, reminds me of a 7 series but imo...needs moar low!
ground clearance isnt lookin great with the body kit

maybe a big lip spoiler would look cool too, something to balance it out!

It's got the sport suspension which is 3 inches lower than stock. There's only 2 fingers space in between, I always thought that was ideal, no?

hmm maybe its cuz ur running 20"s right? and the big rims making the ground clearance crazy...thats all that really matters i guess

maxx 10-27-2009 11:27 PM

problem with black wheels is that you can barely see them :(

bob_chan 10-27-2009 11:36 PM

Definitely digging the new kicks. What are they? VMR-710s? Not too hot about the eyelids though, but to each his own.

IMO the LCI headlights would be an awesome mod

van_driver 10-27-2009 11:42 PM

nice! eyelids kinda make it look cheap
good choice on the white colour

crazyazn 10-28-2009 12:41 AM

lookin fine...but you plan to use these wheels through winter??

izzue.hk 10-28-2009 02:03 AM

They are 19"'s actually. And yeah, ground clearance is what matters, but I'm already having trouble clearing some speed-bumps with my front bumper!

I think black looks sick on white. I personally hate chrome wheels on sports cars.

Yeah, they are the VMR 710's in matte black. I'm starting to consider taking the eyelids off now lol. I like the LCI headlights a lot better too. Where can I get those other than the stealership and how much will cost me?

Yeah, eyelids will probably go soon, and yes, i like white :-), but so hard to keep clean.

No, I just got the wheels so I was excited and quickly threw them on. I'll enjoy them for another month-ish or less and then switch back for the winter.

Haha, I'm kinda scared of tint right now. If I'm gonna do it, i'm gonna do it illegal. But i'll definitly be doing it, hopefully soon. I'm planning on getting the badges in matte black, maybe have it say "328i" on right side, and "E90" on the left while losing the BJ logo.

ctsport 10-28-2009 04:06 AM

I think it looks better stock.

asian_XL 10-28-2009 04:23 AM

it reminds me this

Does anything EVER go on at the Langley Events Centre??

and why the hell does Langley have all these huge awesome buildings when theres like no1 there (like that giant golds gym and collossus)

yet oh Maple Ridge/Pitt has crap

aside from the fact its rubbing up against surrey



back on topic

i dont like dark wheels on white cars, it makes it look like u got steelies on (moreso than any other coloured car)

Amuse 10-28-2009 06:43 AM

That's a lot of pictures! but looks good.

Mugen EvOlutioN 10-28-2009 07:22 AM

new rims looks alrit, just average

hal0g0dv2 10-28-2009 08:50 AM

wheels look pretty sick

x2

I'm waiting for black rims to be played out. They show no definition/lines, and from far look little different than black steelies.

sonick 10-28-2009 09:14 AM

Not a fan of black rims for the reasons stated. Gunmetal is nicer.

azn_boix 10-28-2009 10:14 AM

dont like the bumper, looks horrible

the rest of the car looks good

shantz 10-28-2009 10:36 AM

That's right by my house!

EEK! :eek:

q0192837465 10-28-2009 12:00 PM

u need to add 2 wings in the back. CSL trunk + ACS roof

Maybe add a rear add-on to the bumper & u'r set to go pimping

124Y 10-28-2009 01:25 PM

The bumper and the eyelids don't suit my taste...
However, overall the car looks great!
I ordered some matte black wheels as well~

RabidRat 10-28-2009 01:55 PM

i think i saw you the other day. nice wheels, what are they?
