Good ta mate, bottom line kit now all fitted which I'm happy with, next jobs on the list are to tint the front fogs and rear lights, only the other day did someone say I need to tint the back like Rigged!!

Just convincing myself to hang onto it at the moment, E90 M3's keep wispering in my ear, I know it will be shocking in the winter but its an itch that may need scratching, my mate has also sold his Evo and bought a E60 M5 which has got me thinking about an M!

Building an extension to the house this summer so will not be till next year at the earlyest!

it matters not about how far the sidewalls or rim/lip protrudes.
OP, your car looks the mutts nuts

Well what ever you do, as long as in the end your happy is all that matters And you always have good taste in modding anyways

Lewis you kno what they say, if you don't have haters your not doin it right

BLU thanks for clearing things up and asking shops about it, now I can enjoy my street car without worrying.....

FYI for all you that speeds and gets tickets every where you go, drivin this lower actually keeps you from speeding cause your too busy dodging potholes lol
