Nice work. Might want to rotate that shot though. haha

Yes the front lip is always one of the first things to install. It then escalates to more drastic mods later. :mrgreen: :lol:

I'm gonna sound like a noob - but I have no idea how to rotate the pic! :|

Front lip arrived today and has since been installed. Have already been looking for a set of wheels and once I can comfortably afford these then they'll be going on soon (I'm hoping within the month :D ). A tune might be done sometime before Christmas too.... But I'm stoked on the car as it is 8)

Who do you have the photo hosted with? You many want to rotate the original shot there.

Wheels are a good thing to do. Be sure to choose wisely. Check out the wheels threads of what others have done for inspiration. As for tune. No rush, but once you get it, you'll kick yourself for not getting it done sooner. :twisted:

It's just a pic which I uploaded from the 'post a reply' screen. It's strange as I'm using my iPad and it is orientated correctly... Haha

With wheels I know what size and offset I want - gonna go for 18x8" with an offset around +40. Don't want to get anything too big as I'd prefer to not start rolling guards etc. I'm liking the look of your Koya wheels tho :D have been eyeing up a set of their semi forged SF05's. Got a work mate who has them on his M135i and they look sweeettttt! $360 a corner isn't too bad either.... http://www.koya.com.au/cars/sf05-18″-semi-forged-custom-fit/

you wont look back with Koya rims. Killer quality.

Yes $360 per corner is not bad considering you are getting a custom sized forged rim.

Nice rim choice, I'd def go with the 18x8 +40ish offset if you don't want to mess around with guard rolling/camber etc. Although you should get at least 225 width tyres as well on 8" rims or you'll have a fair bit of stretch going on

Yeh I will probably go for a 225/40 if I do get a set.... Looking like wheels might have to wait for the moment tho, gotta get my damn wisdom teeth out! :cry:
