Need your opinion

stooken · 10-12-2007, 12:10 PM

this is "HighSpeed250"s car. i just wanted to use it as reference.

im sold on the skirts but what do you guys think of the rear bumper with black diffuser? i'm on the fence about it. wondering if i should just paint it all white? the rear bumper w/ black diffuser looks amazing on a dark colored car but i still cant make up my mind about alpine white. :sad0147:

flush01 · 10-12-2007, 12:36 PM

i'd keep it black

montreal_bimmer · 10-12-2007, 12:36 PM

looks great.... AW coupes are hot with rear M-Tech

shragon · 10-12-2007, 12:58 PM

i like it black.

haven't seen one painted white yet, except on the e90. i liked it that way as well.

not a fan of that rear diffuser as the lines dont match up ... just my opinion stoOkie!

so id' paint it white =D

SES_D · 10-12-2007, 02:31 PM

leave it as it is, it'll go well with your wheels. You have enough contrast to pull it off. If you didn't have the wheels, I would say paint it.

stooken · 10-12-2007, 03:29 PM

turns out the diffuser is more of a metallic gunmetal finish rather than black. hmm that would match my wheels even more!

yeah i wanted a rear bumper that hangs a bit lower than the OEM bumper. seems squished together towards the rear.

kenntona · 10-13-2007, 11:27 AM

Both matt black or gunmetal will look fine on your AW........
