Picked this up a few months ago, and have been steadily tinkering with it since.

I'm close to the point where I'm happy with it :)
I've been missing my m3, so this fills the gap a little.

The wheels are coming off tonight (snow), but I'll drop it another inch in the next 2 weeks.

I was up at 5am, had a few hours on the slopes, and back home by 2pm.

Perfect weather for photos.

Hey man. Where'd you manage to get those wheels? I've been trying for ages to get a set shipped from America for ages now. Can't get a decent price. And from what I can see there still not selling them in the uk.

They look outstanding on your car by the way. :)

I'm in Canada, so there were no issues finding them.

The latest touch -

Went to Home Depot and bought a garage door gasket, which has now found itself working at a front splitter :D

Cost about 18 bucks!

Sweet. I used to stay near Toronto. Been thinking if asking my uncle to buy them and send them over. Not sure what kind if costs I'm going to incure shipping them overseas. :(
