I actually got it from ebay before IND started selling it. You can get it now from IND.

Yup I plan on just keeping this mostly stock as is. No other plans. Love it as is right now

Bimmers4life · 12-30-2017, 09:02 AM

Looks amazing! Love the color combo. Quick question... did you get the windows tinted but left off the front windows? Or did you go with a much lighter tint on the two front windows?

Unfortunately here in VA, legal tint is 50 front and 35 back. I've gotten way too many tint tickets in the past so opted to go legal.

Man, that looks amazing. I love those wheels--don't see any reason really to get another set.

I get it bro. Legal tint in GA is 35% and as much as I would love to get 20 or 25% I’ve gotten too many tickets and I just stick to 35%. Some local cities here in GA have tint tickets as high as $350. No thanks.

May I ask where you got the color matched front lip? I'm thinking of going that route rather than the CF that everyone does. Thanks!

Funny story is I ordered the CF splitter and black lip from factory and they had it installed at the port. I was expecting the unpainted black lip. But they ended it up painting it at factory. I talked to dealer and they bought me a free unpainted lip that is just sitting in my house. The white has really grown on me and I plan on keeping it like that.

Hahaha that’s awesome! I just sent a buddy of mine a pic of your car and told him how nice it matches. The whole black and white theme. I think the fact that you went with the black inserts on the 666 wheels makes all the difference as well. Cudos to BMW for making a “mistake” that worked out in your favor. Also the fact that your dealer got you another new lip to make up for their mistake is amazing. Win / win situation for you.

Beautiful car. Very clean looking.

Sweet, I wonder if I can do the color matched front lip without the CF splitter since I'm not doing the CF rear spoiler and diffuser. ?

The factory front spoiler is made to work only if you have the CF splitters. There are other aftermarket front spoilers that will work without the splitters but not the M Performance spoilers flat black or carbon.

Thanks for the info, very helpful.

Best white I've ever seen! So jealous of the LCI 2 headlights. Great work here all around including the painted lip. What trunk lip/spoiler is that?
