Opinions.. BBS LM-R DBK vs. Silver?

Pure745 · 05-03-2010, 10:52 PM

Just wanted to get some opinions.. I'm a newbie here, sold my E65 and bought a E92.

My E65 was Sterling Grey and I had brushed faces on polished lips.. looked real classy.

Now.. with my E92.. I don't know what direction I want to go in. My E92 is Black Sapphire Metallic with the red interior.

I'm about to make a move on some LM-R's in DBK. Just wanted to get your opinions on this look (I'm going to do an aggressive drop with coilovers) Or should I powder coat them silver or have them polished?

Opinions from people that have seen them in person would be really appreciated.. I'm on the fence big time!

personally the gunmetal centers, polished lips and red BBS center caps (thats the DBK right?) is such a sick color combo.

I was just feeling like I'm getting too old to fix up cars lol

I just turned 29.. had a few fixed up cars in my time (turbo honda in high school, 350z back when it first came out)

This damn E92, the bug has DEFINITELY got to me.. it's bad.. and going to be expensive!

if you are worried about what others will think of the LM-Rs don't even listen to them. They are baller wheels. Just flat and simple.

Not worried too much about others.. more worries about that voice in my head saying that!

Any more opinions on which color will look better on my BSM?

I thought that silver would be the more popular choice!

Pure745 · 05-04-2010, 05:41 PM

Anyone polish these wheels? pics?

Same boat man! You can't go wrong with those. You might get some unwanted attention though.
