With regard to your paint, I can see why you like option 3, but I would like to see the dark metallic blue you are considering for the wheels because I think thats key. Depending on that blue it would make for a great combo. Even still this may sound a bit weird, but I really think that option 3 would clash with the lighter side of your two toned interior. I would say go with option 1.

wheels are also some sort of light gray/ graphite oem finish, whenever i paint ill send them to be polished. until then i just need to figure out a way to make them fit lol.

So
ive been waiting for a ton of parts to come in...and as they've finally started to arrive it hit me... did i really just blow 5 months worth of rent on car parts while being a jobless student living off scholarships and grants? **** YEAAAAAAAAAA
so... ive decided im moving to "the ghetto" to be closer to campus this semester.... id hate to get stuff stolen anyways since i dont have full coverage.
im selling all the goods and leaving it to fate as to whether i mod the car any further or not. if i get legitimate offers on two of the four items; theyre gone! if not.......... the car will be coming together well in about 2 weeks!
heres whats in store.......or going to be sold at the STORE!! pun intended.
and LCAS which are ready to go in.......... now we WAIT!!!!!!!.... lol im gonna give the clock two weeks to see what sells and what doenst to decide if we take it to the next level!

are the pictured items (bimmer wheels, hub adapters, and coilovers) the stuff that you just got in for your car, or the stuff that your selling?
