Let me preface this by saying I know NOTHING about the BMW aftermarket or even OEM stuff. I've heard the term Mtec, that's it. Before you dismiss me, Know that I am very mechanically apt. But when it comes to body stuff, I do not know a lot.
This is my car:




This is my engine:

Alright, so, if you have any questions about the project itself, go here:
Basically, i want my car to look nice.
I apparently have "old style" bumpers. I have purchased Ireland Engineering fender flares. I think I am going to rivet those on, as opposed to molding them in, for a "racier look"
I don't want to do a TON of body work, but some is alright. I was thinking about leaving the door trim flat black, painting the plastic bumper trim body color, then painting the chrome on the bumper black. People keep telling me that the rear bumper looks like crap.
I am not opposed to buying a bodykit, especially if it means i don't need to screw around with trying to find good condition OEM bumper trim... mine is a bit beat up...
Basically, i just need someone to tell me what to buy, and where to buy it. I don't have a ton of time to devote to searching and researching a million bodykit options. I am not a huge fan of the BMP bumpers... Local (toronto/buffalo) is preferred.
THANKS!!!
