WOW love it! The 356 wheels fit the F10 so well. And the combo of tint and shadowline trim, and CF rear deck spoiler on dark graphite is stunning!

Do you have the BMW Performance black grills too? Can't tell from the shots.

Any other mods planned?

Thanks for sharing your pics.

Beautifully aggressive. Just awesome how the F10 can easily take on a slightly more aggressive look with just a few modifications. Good job.

Outside. Salesperson offered me a ridiculous price. Price is what I considered fair.

BMW 356 wheels 20" for F10
Pirelli P Zero (new Hero) 245 35R20/285 30R20.

Trading in the OEM wheel and tyre set. Adding around HKD30K
BMW Sales person quoted me a full HKD10K more on the same deal

Thanks for all the great comments. I am trying to get a chance to take some nice pictures with my Nikon SLR. Everytime I tried the last few days it was pouring outside. That's Florida in the summer for ya. I'll try to get some more detailed photos up soon. I know there are a lot of you wondering about the spoiler. It really does look great, but I am not certain it would look great on any color.

Thanks for sharing your pics.
I didnt do the black grills. I have mixed feelings about them from some of the pictures I have seen with them installed. It almost makes the car look cheap. I prefer the classic grill in combo with the new headlights which have a lot of silver in them.
I dont think I will be doing any more mods to the car, at least not for a while. I like to keep the nice, clean, classy look.
Personally I prefer this cars' look over the M-Sport, but obviously opinions will differ on that. I just think that anything "M" should be reserved for the "M" model. But again, thats my personal opinion, the M-Sport still looks great, its just not for me.
