My car

Finally posted pics of my car today and wanted to know what people think. its an 07 328i with VMR cal reps, M3 bumper, sport suspension, painted calipers and black mirrors. Im debating whether to do a muffler delete and/or any performance mod for that matter. sorry pictures aren't the best, they are from my phone.

I like the calipers too, did you do them yourself or have a shop do them? I'm actually going to do the same what did it run you or did you follow a DIY?

I really just taped up everything around it real well and put plastic bags everywhere in the wheel well and spray painted it. It turned out great! There was only one spot with overspray and it was on the face of the rotor, but that came right off after taking the car around the block.

What kind of paint did you use? Just regular spray paint? Do you have any closeup pictures? Could be fun to do this to my calipers to match the Montego blue

I like it, nice clean, sharp look. For some reason though, I can never wrap my brain around totally black wheels.
