I actually wanted a black/black but I couldn't pass up the deal that I got on this one. For tuning, I highly recommend a Conforti chip. Out of all the engine work I've done, this has given the biggest difference. I believe they give more power then the Dinan chip, and they are cheaper as well. If you haven't upgraded the tires yet, do it!! This makes an amazing difference. With the chip and tires alone I am running below six seconds 0-60 (according to G-Tech) when stock I was running 6.7. IMO, this is the ultimate bang for the buck combo.
If you haven't been to the www.roadfly.org forum yet, go there. Ask about the lights, somebody will know. |

For good wheels and a good price, I'd go with either BMW M Parallels (made by BMW, but available on the aftermarket) or any type of Breytons. Both are available for around $1000 USD a set. For tires, I would go with Bridgestone Potenzas.
If you don't mind spending $3000+ on wheels, go with AC/Schnitzers or Hamanns on Pirelli P-Zero Nero's. Here is a pic of my car with the M Parallels and Potenzas. I'm also planning on upgrading to bigger cross-drilled rotors and painted calipers. Please excuse how dirty it is, they're paving my street at the moment |

yeah, Michelin Pilot Sports would be great. I couldn't decide between the two...I just picked the Potenzas because I liked the look of the tread pattern more.
