    my family and friends hate it, but I like it.

    well, finally got the wheels painted, (one side is a different color than the other) still waiting on the front valance.-- cranked down the coilovers a bit-- can still go down ALOT further up front-- but I have to be able to get the car on a trailer too. took the adjuster completely out of the rear.

    so these are the wheels for it till i find something really nice for an even nicer price.

    raised the boost to 1 bar-- just need to align it and take it out for a spin now.

    what you think of the color of the wheels? yay or nay?

    I like the concept of the unique color wheels on the car... But for some reason Im just not feeling this color. It doesn't look bad but I feel like with the right color it could look awesome. just my opinion.

      I like it. Maybe if the wheels were a bit darker it would look a bit better. The wheels just look too new/clean if that makes sense. Is that a battery kill switch that I see?

        I really like the attempt to be unique. With these cars especially black ones it makes it hard to be unique.

        As far as the color goes, I can dig it. Its a little bit of a weird color but I could definitely roll with that. I honestly think more of a bronze would look SICK on your car. But thats just me.

        Oh yeah and kudos to sticking with an M20 and not going 24v. Just another bandwagon you decided not to jump on.

                    yes, its a batt. kill switch. the car sits in the garage 98% of the time( got it from a friend cheap), so its just easier-- and looks kewl.

                    actually for some reason the color of the rims and the car don't really look like they do in person-- funny.

                    only the 2 front tires are new, they were 45 dollars a piece with my work discount--couldnt say no! and needed somethinf that would'nt rub in the front.

                    I have the M tech II front valance with a splitter-- they are still in the shop being painted.

                    the car isnt black, it is actually the old color of my M3-- nepuneturkismetallic
                    this is what the color looks like in the sun.




                    and a pic of when I got it for free in all its M10 glory!I stuck with M20 because I have a TON of spare parts and it is CHEAP!

                            It's the right car to have unique colored wheels, but I'd want to match it with something else on the car. Maybe match them red like the tail lights?

                              Wow, what a change. I was going to send you a pm to see if you have finished it or not. Looks good! If possible, can you take a snap of the car in direct sunlight?
