I like matte black more, when it's gloss everything blends in. I like the two different black finishes and how they contrast

Thumbs down

UPDATE: well I went to the beach today and this guy decided to snake my parking spot after circling around for 45min and my blinker clearly on, no exaggeration. My friend who i was with went to go to speak with this guy as he tries to fix his parking and nicely convinces him to let me park there as he complains on how he is late to work etc. I go to the beach finally for around 4 hrs. to come find that my new csl trunk, rear right quarter panel and back right door is KEYED. My friend remembered the guy who took my spot saying where he worked and we quickly headed over. We managed to find him and confronted him. He claimed to have no clue on what happened. We left the store and told him that we were going to call the cops over and waited on the corner. A minute later he came running out and decided to have a chat with us. He still denied it until we caught him slipping in one of his "statements" He finally admitted to us that it was him and we exchanged information. I didn't call the cops due to charges of vandalism that he would face if I did. Lets all hope that he sticks to his word and pays for everything. Back to LTBMW I go...

matte black rims are not for me...maybe hypersilver. the whole black out thing is not really for me, then again, its your car, and thats why i chose lemans blue instead of BSM. good luck with the keying situation

Fuuuuuu...Way to handle the situation. Some people would've let their emotions get the better of them and ripped that guys head off.
Hope your ride gets fixed up flawlessly

Believe as I keep thinking about it, I want to more and more. The guys 5'2 130lbs and drives like an old hatchback honda civic.
If i don't get 100% cooperation by him the cops are going to be called immediately.

when I get a chance, I've been working on some camera techniques lately so share some of what I have. He runs a CF air intake, Catless custom made exhaust, new intercooler, some really high quality tune and K04 turbo upgrade and I believe he's pushing somewhere in the 400hp range

Damn that's crazy. People who do that type of shit is pure evil . I hope everything gets worked out right for you. One tip I learned is never fight for a parking spot, and even if you manage to win that spot, DONT EVEN TAKE IT. The person will probably do something to it, especially he knows where u parked now. I know you circled for 45mins but in that situation you gotta pass it up to be safe.

So with a month or two of my car being just how I want it, tonight someone once again in a ford escape backed straight into the front of my car causing my LTBMW m3 front rep bumper to be dented in with some nice scratches to go along with it. Kidney Grills broken and popped out. And front of the hood dented downwards onto the front bumper. What luck I have...
I'm not sure how much insurance will give me yet, but any suggestions for a new hood? Probably just going to get a new/ repair my m3 rep bumper
