Just got my blue bmw back, installed carbon fiber hood and front splitters. Im liking the hood, still unsure if I like the splitters… They do go well togeather with eachother, just think the splitters might poke out too much.

What do you guys think?

It’s an “M” package car, im allowed to have an “M” badge. An M"5" badge would be stupid.

splitter’s look way to big for the car… and it would look much cleaner without the M badge, regardless what package came on the car.

I agree about splitters, but they were $300 for those two little fuckers so there staying on for a little while at least lol… As for the badge, You gotta see it in person, the wheel caps and the blue on the badge in front almost EXACTLY match the paint on the car, imo it looks sick… In pictures, yes I agree looks out of place and not neat. I do apprechiate the feedback tho.

You black out the window sills?

The more black accents the car will have the better it will look, wheels etc.

I just took off the chrome pillars… Originally the car was my daily driver therefore I didnt want the “speed” look, instead went for the “pimp” look lol. (chrome rims, door handles and pillars) After I sold my Del sol I decided to buy my e90 and make the 540 my “sports car”

It’s a work in progress, but by next spring it should be pretty fuckin sick, rims, gutted interior, motor swap and all… Dont mention black rims! Shapes is gonna pressure me into buying his rims again!! lol

Nah, if I dont buy his im probably going to end up getting these and paint the lip blue if I can get these in a polished lip instead of chrome.

just some suggestions about the black and blue,

if you can get the following in black i think it would greatly help this car visually

roof  
trunk  
base of the side mirror’s

i think breaking up the blue with those in black would help a ton
