Simple reflector stickers over the top give me the all black look, I finally finished the carbon fiber hamburgers tonight too. 1/2 a burger as I call it.

I've been slowly chipping away at stuff like that since I bought the car last year.............. will need to put it on the list

I'm considered putting these m359's 18" on my z4 3.0si. How have you found the wheels they look great.

Well, I know these are not Apex rims, but here are my 18 inch VMR 718s, just for comparison - also a CSL replica wheel.

18 inch rims with Michelin Pilot Super Sports: 225 40 ZR18 front and 255 35 ZR18 rear. the offsets are 35mm on the front and 45mm on the rear. Oh and by the way, here in St. John's Canada, we have the CRAPPIEST, most poorly maintained streets with the most potholes, cuts, ruts and hard bumps ANYWHERE (big shout out to the local municipal crews for their skill in creating that). After two summers of driving around town, the VMRs are still like new.

Looks really good, the silver makes the blue pop.

Thank you! I should add that VMR's prices are very good. I think the set was no more than somewhere around $1,000 USD or so, if memory serves me correctly. The only "problem" I have is that the VMR center caps won't come out easily so I can install the BMW caps and I don't want to take the rims off just for that.

They have been excellent. We have a lot of potholes here, being on the coast and water all around us..... roads settle a lot. I've hit more than one where my initial reaction was "oh crap, I bet I bent the rim". Not the case, they have held up very well.
