Pics after some slight changes.

[Jakkals_F30]

Ok so i can't edit the topic from when i joined the forum so i would like everyone's honest opinion here please.
It's no major changes or anything but just something to try make sure mine doesn't look the same as any other one on the road.


Before and after pics for my car..

Before....
The day before i collected her.

And the day she came home.

After....

raise:
Looking good bru.

Love them wheels..

 

[andrewbuch]

I like the wheels, not a fan of the black things

 

[Jakkals_F30]

Thanks man... Just want her to look a bit different than the others on the road. :=):

Looks good, just think it would look more coherent if you had black mirror caps also then

 

[Sabretooth tiger]

looks good:joy:

 

[Jakkals_F30]

So who thinks i need the mirror caps also ?

 

[Ga-3M]

Car looks awesome bud! Ellipsoids are the business!:thumbs: Just to agree with one of the posts above, I also would say some black mirrors or making the boot spoiler black to match the front.:thumbs:

 

[Jakkals_F30]

Noted thanks guys...

Will see what i can do to get it to look a bit better.

:thumbs::thumbs:

+1 and what did you pay for the Splitters

 

[Mo63]

Looks really nice dude :bravo:

Add some carbon fibre mirror covers to complete the look

 

[Mike1]

Looks great and I really like it, but I cant help feel that whilst the black bits looks great there needs to be more of it on the car.

The strong contrast pulls your attention to the front of the car isolating just that part of the car giving it all the attention.

May I suggest you consider darker mirrors? With the contrast evenly spread your eye focuses on the bumper and "pulls through" along the lines of the body to the darker mirrors and then to the rear of the car leaving you enticed by the small details but not stealing your attention from the rest of the car.

Perhaps tint the rear lights slightly and go darker mirrors and that look will be perfection! :thumbs:

Looking good jakkals! Agree with Ga-3M, mirrors and spoiler will look the business :thumbs::thumbs:

+1 and what did you pay for the Splitters

Can't remember to be honest. Got them from Rooi Willie as they didn't fit on his. :=):

Crazyrides,MiniMike,outlaw - Noted on all counts and thank you very much for the input.. :thumbs:

Time to go do some shopping and find decent fitting parts to add and complete. Once again thank you very much guys :ty:

Looks very nice so far, but agree with v1p3r, black or CF mirror covers would make a huge difference and make the splitters blend in a lot better, especially with the car being silver! Ellipsoids FTW!!! :thumbs:

Snap!! :rollsmile:

Thank you very much Philip - I'm so glad i got the Ellipsoids for my car... complete refurb on them and they look stunning.. :rollsmile:

Will start some shopping for the Mirrors and maybe even a CF of the thin lip spoiler on the boot.

 

[abmi0000]

Looks MUCH better than day 1 :grin:

As mentioned before, I would run spacers, especially on the rear for a nicer stance. It won't just look better, but will improve handling too as you have a wider wheelbase.

 

[Jakkals_F30]

Noted thank you Abmi, +1 to the shopping list. :rollsmile:

 

[NavZ]

I want to say gunmetal mags but I know not everyone is into that.
Definitely mirrors though, the splitters will look odd on its own.
Those splitters are quite aggressive so you need some other mods.
Maybe eyelids? I think they will make a huge difference but again, not everyones cup of tea. Your spoiler & aerial fin could be sprayed too.

 

[Philip Foglar]

Still scared of spacers, but with OEM wheels the E90 needs it visually - wide rears are still better than narrows on the rears! :idea:
