Congrats, man . Pics? Threads usually tend to flow better with them .

Here is the fender flare information: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...38&hg=51&fg=16. The 20" version are the flared ones. ECSTuning is the cheapest/more reliable unless your dealer has a better deal (rarely).
Front Left Arch: http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2714148/
Front Right Arch: http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2698859/
Rear Left Arch: http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2713818/
Rear Right Arch: http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2714118/

Gloss Black Kidney Grilles: http://www.rgsportshop.com/index.php...product_id=234

Lower Grille Splitters: 2 options (Ben usually always has his parts in stock, ECSTuning may or may not have these and have to get them from Germany)
Ben (r33): http://www.rgsportshop.com/index.php...product_id=294 or E
ECSTuning: Left (http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2720053/), Right (http://www.ecstuning.com/ES2719947/)

Congratulations. I also personally like the exhaust tips of the M Sport. You are in the right place. The very helpful folks here will point you in the right direction for any mods you want for your F15. And we do need to see pictures of your new ride.

I like the square exhaust tips, too. Gives it a bolder more substantial look. Congrats on the new car!

Ah, my bad, bro. I wasn't trying to offend you or anyone. I've seen the carbon fiber trim done on a few cars and was considering doing it to my X-Line since I have the black plastic. It makes the car look a bit awkward since carbon fiber mods like this are usually done on the mirrors, roof and bumpers mostly. I could be way off and it might end up looking good. Are you doing this? I'll gladly retract my "tacky" statement if it looks great. It was just my opinion. I always push for people to do awesome mods, but wouldn't ever recommend something that may not look great. I hope you get where I'm coming from .

Wouldn't look toooo bad if it was matte and on a black car. So only detail is shown if up close. Beware of ebay CF as well. Don't want it to yellow up or crack

Na, No worries you might be right. I saw an X5 with them on rolling around my neighborhood but I was busy on the phone... Before I do anything I wanna catch this guy and look at how they look...... They did look like they stuck out a little more and Im hoping I can use the spacers I purchased for my 12'X5 35d......... So the tires stick out more aggressive... If they do stick out more my boy has a body shop Ill have him paint them,,,,

That spacer center bore size should also by 74.1mm, so you should be ok. Yeah, no mod can be done true justice until seen in person. If it looks good, do it. If not, you always have other options like you mentioned .
