Opinions on this car color....

Gadgetech · 11-26-2013, 10:18 PM

I think it looks pretty cool. I've seen a couple of Beemers at cars and coffee that I thought had some type of high end paint job but I'm guessing they had their cars wrapped now.

It looks good to me man and understand what you're going for. I don't like the oem blue choices either. I agree that silver painted or gunmetal wheels with the right offsets (more flush) would make this color pop. Don't second guess yourself, just make it work with the right setup.

Im looking into the wheel spacer thing. I noticed that the second I swapped them over from my 350. Cant believe how more stretched the wells are on the 370, but I like it.

Also never had to worry about spacers before so trying to figure out what I need. Any suggestions?

Figured Id post a pic of the inside as well. Using this as my main control center and to read all car vitals. A perfect fit!!

what are your wheel sizes now? 20-40mm spacers and longer studs...probably...or new wheels haha.

By the way im still waiting to see this heap in real life.

Yeah well I love these wheels. I get compliments on them all the time. Nobody has said differently "in person". The wheels are staying.
