Very clean. You may have just sold me on white for my F10 purchase.

You just sold me on the F10. Change out the taillights and it goes back to a 10. ;)

The Altezza tails don't look too bad at all, but stock red looks 10x better.

Love the quad tips (I'd black them out) and diffuser!
Where do we get these?

It looks great! I wanted very much to order mine in white, but my wife does not think white looks good on a car. She should look at these pictures! I especially love the wheels and the exhaust. May I ask what the exhaust ran you? Was it done by the same group that did the rest of the work?

One idea -I think you should take the 535i off the back. I got my F10 in Carbon Black, with the M Sport package, and I had the all the badging removed. I don't know why, but the car looks much hotter that way. I'll post pics when I can figure out how to do it...

Thanks. The exhaust is Eisenmann Sport and was installed by a local Euro shop for $250. They also installed my ACS springs for $225. They are mechanics and didn't do the other cosmetic mods.

I did remove the badges. The best way is to run dental floss back and forth under the numbers until you saw your way through the foam adhesive. It's very easy to do and harmless to the paint. Remove the residual adhesive with your finger nails and WD40. Like it was never there.

Man, those taillights are rough. Other than that it looks good.

Just took my numbers off with floss. Incredibly easy and looks way better. Thanks for the tip.
