08 Space Gray e92 M3

just wanted to share the car after some cosmetic additions.

no plans to drop it now (terrible experience last car). really want spacers. but i hear theyre not the safest idea? also lookin at the vorsteiner lip, macht shnell air filter, maybe gloss black mirros, and whatever exhaust comes in black. feel free to share your thoughts on these mods since i need some input.

I have spacers (15mm F/12mm R) on my car and had no issues so far. Your car would look much better. Yes, it's mostly cosmetic.

Any exhaust can come in black with some engine paint! Someone here did it recently.

that sounds good - no irregular tire wear? or problems having it aligned when taking it to the dealer?

0 problems. I've driven my car at 120 mph and + with the spacers on. no vibration at all. Tires seem fine. At that speed you would notice any alignment issues. BTW, I have Rogue Engineering spacers.
