So being bored with the 35i lower intake trim I did some fiddling with carbon effect wrap and result is like above... puts me on while I decide if I want the M bumper...

Pagani has made a similar addition to his new Roadster.

I like the chrome inserts on the lower intakes. How did you acheive this, anymore pics?

Thanks

So the 35i comes with a full oval insert with a strip through the centre. It looks a bit old fashioned now imho so I removed the centre strip and then used wrap to cover half in dark carbon and the other half is grey ATM awaiting some chrome treatment when I get the time.

It's a bmw promo stock photo that I photoshopped to try out the lower intake modification.

Mine looks the same but black :)
