White E89 with new black 'boots'!
After taking delivery of my new Alufelgen CS7's black rims last week, the next task was to choose the right tyres!
I read through loads of forums and online reviews and decided on VReds - this is the result of my latest mod.....
Whilst waiting for the rims to arrive I popped down to my local 'tinting' company who blacked out the rear window and 'carbon wrapped' the wing mirrors.
I have the black grilles in the boot and will get them fitted when she goes in for a service next week.
Maybe one or two more 'wraps' then I am done.
Hopefully see some of you at ZedFest in July.......

Your wing mirrors look awesome! How much did you pay for them to be wrapped and what wrap did they use?

Tom, thanks for the comment -
The mirrors were £50 ea (+VAT) and I think the material they used was '3M Di-Noc', if that helps. (Guaranteed for as long as you own the car!)
Thinking of getting the rear boot light cover wrapped as well a the rear bumper under the number plate - probably in a couple of months. Give me time to enjoy these 1st.

Now its time for a drop, as white car+black wheels makes the arch gap look even larger...

Maniac - you are not wrong, although this picture was taken directly after the car had been jacked up for the wheel change - has settled a little lower now but that is my next project.Maniac wrote:Now its time for a drop, as white car+black wheels makes the arch gap look even larger...
