I was in the same boat. Bought a 38 and it looked too small. You cant notice it on a black car liks yours but on a tiag like mine it sucked. Went to the bigger 44" one and now it loos great and fills the whole front. Check it out amd see if you like it.

I use it a few times because I have other cars so I wasn't too worried about it just knocks a lot of wind noise and motion when carrying weight

Really gotta say I like your ride a lot! Quick question... with the 20mm spacers did you have to roll the fenders? Im debating getting the 18mm or the 20mm but cant make up my mind. What would you recommend?

18's or 20's you'll have to roll them when it hits full load on dips. Even with 20 with two people it rubs immensely

I just happened by this thread and had to say "well done". Since I've finished getting all my "mechanicals" back to 100%(used car), cosmetics have been the focus of late. Looks like I shared almost the same vision as you, except I'm going M3 Rep all the way around(fog delete and H style front lip in the works), kickin' rocks with Alpina B7 19" reps, and lowered roughly 1.4" front and back. Even considered the CF hood, but thought I'd better keep it simple. Again, nice ride man. Inspiring for us non 335 types.

Thanks bud, yeah keeping it "clean" is def the way to go. If you're lowered on springs I'd suggest supreme power lowering perches give that small raked look to the drop.
