      Car looks great, but I don't understand the new trend to paint the front/rear spoilers black. BMW never painted them flat black, always body color. Painting it black and fading it from sight totally takes away from the aggresive appearance. Whatever though, super clean car.

          uhoh- I actually agree with stu on something...

          non matched rear spoilers look like an after thought. You stuck it on but didn't enough time or money to paint it.. not a good look.

          The front spoiler I like in both black and body color. Painted it wil make the car look lower up front, but black is easier to care of for road rash.

          Nice work on the night shots as well :up:

                  Nikon Coolpix 3100, its a 3.2 megapixel camera. It doesn't have adjustable shutter speeds, so on those pics I just turn the flash off, and turn the timer on so that my hand doesn't move the camera and blur the picture.

                      Yeah, Stu's got a good point. I think something like the M-tech 1's should stay black, though... at least the actual "spoiler" part. The small piece between the trunklid and the wing should be body color.
