I wrapped it and spoiled it. (lol56k)

Don't like fake carbon

 

[OllyM]

I'm not normally a massive wood fan but it looked better before - that wrap is nasty

 

[TS7]

Piano black would have looked fantastic.

While what you've done doesn't look terrible, it just doesn't seem to look quite right.

 

[Muffin`]

I'm not really bothered about wood, it does nothing for me, but I have to say it looked better before!

Although it might just not photograph well.

I like the wrap, but it really doesn't suit the cream at all. Probably would've got hold of the piano black instead.

Carbon tends to work better in dark interiors. When you opt for cream you've pretty much chosen the least sporting, most old-man interior option anyway so its better to just embrace thats what it is and enjoy it rather than try desperately to 'youth' it out, because... well.. it's still cream, even once you've plastered it in sticky-carbon-tape.

Wood and cream just go together. If you hate wood then avoid cream, because I've yet to see anything work with cream that isn't wood. The worst is when you get silver trim with cream as per the E60 my parents got a few years ago, that looked dire!

Looks much better, much less rover-tatstic.

yup-

 

[Dr Who]

I like it, but hate the cream interior

[DanTheMan]

I like the carbon, it looks 'cleaner'.

 

[kPATm]

Looks better now but would look nicer in just a plain black finish. Get yourself some Plastidip

 

[Ezah]

I thought I wasn't going to like it with a cream interior (w/black leather it would have been an easy win).. but its surprisingly good.

 

[Nick1881]

Much better now, I hate wood trim.

 

[MikeHiow]

I liked the wood better. That 3M stuff looks tacky and looks odd against the cream.

 

[MrMoonX]

looks 500000000x better

except for the cream leather


wood in a car is nasty

How did the spoiler fit on?

 

[[TW]Fox]

How did the spoiler fit on?

Sticky back tape.

Though I think it's the wrong spoiler really - as his car has the BMW Aerokit it really ought to have had an Aerokit rear spoiler as thats the one that was designed to compliment the car.

Edit: Though hang on, it appears to only have half the Aerokit

 

[acemastr]

I am tempted by the little spoiler for mine, SE spec with a spoiler, Fox's worst nightmare

Yes, it only has the Aero front spoiler/lip. And it is fixed with No More Nails ultra strong tape - rather than "stick back tape" which makes people think of sellotape *Apparently* it is held on with 3M tape when BMW fix it at the factory, although they supplied me with cement stuff when i bought my front Aero lip, so i'm not sure.

The M3 lip is SO much nicer than the Aero rear deck spoiler. The Aero rear spoiler is horrible (i know, because i bought one for a bargainous £25 and promptly sold it for £85!).

The Aero rear bumper/diffuser is quite nice, but if i was going to go through that, i would rather have the M-Sport rear.

Carbon looks great!
