    I ditched the HIDs for the basic halogens. I just love the twin reflectors, my nod to the heritage (plus a few pounds off the nose). Hard to pick up in the photo, but I also lightly tinted the chrome grills and corner lights. I may have to go a shade darker on the grills but corner lights are exactly what I was going for, still OEM, just knocked the bling off.

      Thank you!

      Just looking at these pictures now makes me want to get it out of the garage despite the cold and all the salt on the roads.​

                Here are some of my favorites from over the years. The non-track photo is the most recent from last week.

                    It's the AutoPower 4 point with harness bar for slicktop E46 models. Fits right up against the headliner.

                    I was in Austin for almost a year in 2021. Too bad we never crossed paths.

                      This a real pic from this morning, not a photoshop. Fog, and no cars on a tollway. Eerie.
                      I'd drive like this every day, though!

                          I have to get used to driving with the wing now. The car has noticeably more grip in the rear, but I kind of miss the dancing-on-the-edge feeling it had pre-wing. I can't decide if I should add front splitter or go back to wingless...
                          Images deleted bc I hate when people quote huge posts but car looks great.

                          Any idea how much those 21as weigh? Searched and couldn't find an answer. I'd probably go less aggressive with the 18x9.5.

                              Thanks man. Yea the 10.5 are 21lbs I think. The 9.5 would be a little less. I have a Volk dealer buddy if you want to buy a set. I think he has some 9.5s in stock. DM me.

                              These are making me want to go back to the wingless look...​
