Yo guys, after seeing this car personally over the weekend I can assure you that either the old adage of "pictures dont do it justice" is true or bodyguard cant take pictures for shyt, lol... this car is so much cleaner than what these pictures let on is ridiculous, even the wheels (which I was not big fan of to begin with) look a lot better in person, the paint job is flawless and the eibach drop on 22s is almost stupid (nice looking Doc) enough to make me get 22s, but I wont, I track my car, lol... The only thing I didnt like in bodyguard's car is that he has aluminum trim but that's just my opinion...

Great!! Glad I could help....try ebay for the rear window/roof spoiler. They have many retailers I just dont know which are the legit or good ones!! I may just start up a post so we could get help. Many are under $100. :dblthumb:

It rides very good on 22"s not gonna say great but very good, yes!! Looking to buy stock 20" from the new M when they start coming up on craigslist or some owner trade-ins..just so I could have more wheel setups... I like the way they look in gunmetal! :bigthumb:
As for power loss? Maybe yes.... A lil on the top end not really on take off (I have a 4.5!!) I'm not sure how much these wheels weigh?? Not a problem for me...

Not sure which"daytime" lights you are reffering to but the small light bulb in the headlight is led, (parking lights). The fog lights are 8k hid..low beams are 6k hid.

Hmmm ... somehow, I don't like the 5 spoke ones as well as the other multi-spoke ones!

But, that is just my opinion. :yesnod

No not much rubbing really, I occasionally get a bit of contact (rubbing) on the inner lining plastic if I'm high speed and come across different leveled roads. Like in the freeway overpass or bridge.... I corner it hard and turn it at full circle often and no rubbing!! It's all in the offset.... Lower offset well bring your wheel out and could cause a problem to your fenders if you're too low an and riding oversized wheels. Mine are not exactly flush with the body, they are slightly tucked in which keeps my fenders out of harms way... I like them that way. :gotme

The old one are much better looking than your current ones. The new ones don't seem to belong on the M... Maybe more on a charger or 300c?
