Ditch the M badges and you're good.

And get some fogs or delete panels in there

Looks hot! You've inspired me to get the Rieger Rear Bumper!!! Looks soo good!

I kind of like the black wheel look on that car...

Have you thought about replacing the black beltline trim on the rear bumper (or painting it??) and getting black 18's? I think that would look hot on that car...

I have the fogs, I was just modifying them to accept H7 bulbs while she was in the shop.

Thanks J!M! At the shop, I told the guy not to paint the belt line on the bumper, but he did anyway. So I guess I'm gonna get the rest of the trim painted artic silver along with my M3 mirrors when they arrive. I would have painted it back to black.....but.........it doesn't detach! It's molded into the bumper.:tongue:

Looks great, wish mine looked as good as yours.

Just mask it off and it can be painted with no problem. I think it will look better black than painting all the moldings on the rest of the car. Painted moldings look unfinished to me- like a model car that did not get the time to be properly detailed before display.

I can give you a hand with the masking/painting if you want, but it will have to wait a little while I'm afraid.

Looks low and hawt. Love the black wheels actually - sinister appeal. Agree with J!m, black beltline if possible when he is not afraid ....

Platanos 03-17-2006 03:07 PM

Thanks papa! I'm going on another photo shoot this afternoon so you can expect better pictures tonight. I do have the black mesh that came with the bumper, but I'm still hung up on weather I want it on the car or not. Maybe if I put the mesh in the front bumper then I might put it in the rear.

But thanks for all the Compliments guys! As far as the black wheels go. I have 18" Breyton Visions in silver to match the car.......those are going on the ti this weekend.:biggrin:

Looking Good Juni..

wind54 03-17-2006 06:57 PM

great pictures, im in the process of putting a kit on mine and still looking for a nice rear bumper, this will give me a better indication whether to go with the e36 bumper of the rieger. Looking forward to more pictures of the rear bumper...

Hey,

I just took some new pics this afternoon on my way to lunch because I feel as if the night shots didnt do it justice. Enjoy:

Artic Silver Rocks!
 
Love the color of your car. Artic Silver color is one the best looking color for BMW. Good job!

My next BMW is going to be a silver one. Love it.

I saw a ti in San Diego that had all the panels painted alpine white with awesome rims and it AMAZING! I am not sure about the look you have going with your tires. To me it looks like you just had a flat and still driving on the full size spare, but it's your baby and if she looks good to you then you go with it!

Outie,
Mothman
