Ive had my PB edition SC430 (the light blue one) for several years now and I have been delighted. It looks great (except for a couple of angles from the rear 3/4s), and the reliabilty is awesome compared to my previous M3 and present E class MB.
Nevertheless I am feeling a little antsy and want to accessorize my 430. Im looking at new wheels for sure but am not interested in spending thousands. I like the idea of multispokes (8-12 spokes) or the BBS pattern with split spokes. Max I'd like to spend with installation is 1500 and Id like to keep my new-ish and excellent Michelin Pilot Sport 18 inch tires.
As for mods for this car, am I going to destroy my resale value (especially for a Limited Edition car) by adding external options to the car (skirts, rear and back lips, etc.)? If not, what would you suggest? Thanks for your help!
Cheers

Their cast wheels are nice though - good looking designs & good quality wheels for their price from a reputable brand.
