Re: A preview of what has come....
I'm a big fan of the 17" staggered style 5 wheels on red cars with Euro bumpers

Boy, that sure doesn't look like a car that needs paint.

Re: A preview of what has come....
I've been busy so it's been a while, but I finally got the staggered 5's put on and I have to save that I love them. The car handles so much better, duh right?
I just got a GoPro to mess around with so here are a few shots (sorry about the huge file size). They are not the greatest as it was starting to get dark. I will get better ones this weekend.

Re: A preview of what has come....
I don't have a gopro but apparently you can apply a lens correction in gopro studio that makes the pictures look normal. I'd suggest giving that a shot if you're going to use it for stills. Huge improvement with the wheels btw. Also, I hate to suggest it since I hate them but I think some sideskirts would really tie it together. Not sure which ones though.

Re: A preview of what has come....
Yeah, I'm just learning about the GoPro and the Studio software now. I will figure it out this weekend and try to get some better stills and maybe play around with some video action.
I agree with you on the sideskirts. I have 2 sets in my possession, a set of the Ford Taurus mod ones and a set of what I think are BMP that I scored at a junk yard for cheap. They both need paint, but I plan to try both out to see which ones will set if off.
I also have a M-tech spoiler that I've been debating on as well. I really like the trunk line w/o it but it's a toss up. Suggestions?

Re: A preview of what has come....
I was going to say get another red trunklid with the holes drilled from factory and test fit to your heart's delight... But then I remembered that Lee may have gotten it painted in a non-stock shade of red.Matt in SC wrote:Suggestions?

They did a pretty damn good job of matching Zinnoberrot.
I like it without the spoiler for that reason. That line on the trunk is one of the best lines on the car and the spoilers uhhh spoil it.

Re: A preview of what has come....
I actually have another red trunklid from my 535is that I pulled off, but you are right, the red color is a little off but it actually is not that noticable unless you really look at it.
