Warranty ran up, so I guess I will Mod. Suggestions?

Hey guys so my warranty ran up and I am getting the modding bug and I am looking for some suggestions.

Here is the pics from the photo shoot I just did. I recently put on the Euro plate but I am still undecided whether to keep it or not. I had it on my old monacco blue e46 and it looked great.

Anyways I have a pair depo V2s coming in for Christmas with LED AEs and sidemarkers to get rid of those boring angeleyeless halogens. I am considering darkening up the grill and adding some front splitters, possibly keeping them carbon fiber.

As for the wheels I am not in love with the ones I have but can't afford nice ones right now. Whats the consensus on touching them up to a more graphite gunmetal grey color?

Thanks guys, love the site, been browsing it for almost a year and now i am happy to contribute.

get a set of wheels/tires, springs and you'll be off to a great start in addition to the Depo V2's you have on the way.

id say wait keep the color of the wheels now, my car looks exactly like yours now and ive thought about it. I think it'd be best to wait it out until you can get better rims. Btw where did you order your depo v2's from?

I ordered mine from Jlevi but in hindsight ordering from Umnitza looks like a better deal.

Don't waste money on stupid crap like grills and lights made who knows where - just get a set of used 161s - that will transform the way your car looks way more than everything else.

500 bucks will probably get you a good set of 161s, especially bought in warmer states where people don't need them for winter but came standard on cars with sport package. Otherwise, go for 158, 159, 160 - all 17s and cheap and OEM quality.

That's what i did, a stock 320d with halogens here on 161s.
