Can I be a tad picky? I hate when guys do this on here, but here I go. The stickers on the fenders and windshield and daytime blue lights take away from the QUALITY of taste put into the car.
Thanks for the kind comment bro. I too don't like putting stickers too much but just representing my friends shop here in dc/md/va area.

As for the lights. Its actually 6k led but it came out purplish in the pic.

I got it done by Carbon1 guy when I saw some members on here got it done, but would not recommend him or promote any business to him. He put me thru hell, bs'ed on when my parts were going to be done, lost one of my door lock switch and he still has my fog covers and the chrome ash tray piece. I think FXauto who is a vendor on this forum on here does it too.

I'm trying to stick with the blacked out theme... There's a guy that I found on e90post that would do the 3M carbon weave wrap and then do a gloss of clear coat polyurethane on the trim pieces to give it that standard carbon fiber look at a fraction of the cost. I did a wrap job on my 335, i would just need to figure out the proper way to apply the coating. That would be a MUCH cheaper alternative and could be done on pretty much EVERYTHING in the car to match.

Maybe I should be the class guinea pig on this one. I like the silver CF look but would prefer the standard CF look and if I ever get tired of it then you just remove it and use some goo-gone to get rid of the adhesive spray on the trim part.

http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthr...=782102&page=1

Here's what I did on my BMW, all it would need would be the gloss finish.





Once again Sai, awesome ride. Sorry to thread jack.

I definitely agree. The wrap thing is definitely more of a BMW thing since their M3 has that carbon weave leather. I wouldn't do it on the F unless it had the glossy look like what I linked to. I couldn't justify spending the money on real CF, I'm a show-n-go kind of guy but i prefer to spend the money on go mods.
