The pearl paint is really very nice in the last picture you shared. I am sure it looks great in the bright sun. Also, you must be happy to not have the BMW trademark orange peel paint

From one Swede to another... this is "hardrock!" (where the "a" has a ring above it)

Im looking at the original race car, I don't know what BMW did to the rear end... maybe the wind tunnel did it or somethin'. I just love the way the rear end of this body kit turned out, it might be the best feature imo.

Maybe the front spoiler need some changes, it is just not flowing that well, but that should be an easy fix to make it less "square". But other than that I think you made a fantastic job with your beemer (and the product).

Personally, I would go for other colors... darker colors ....and 100% less orange.

Looking at this again.. i think its the wheels that make it look disproportionate.

Agree. Different wheels would look better. Also, dark paint would look nice too. I have always been a sucker for pearl paint though and this paint is nice (minus orange).

lower it even more??? hmm...anyways, to each his own... i like it the back as well... was hoping for more of this look...maybe it would look better on a coupe...
