The new ride

[Tutankhamon]

This has already been posted over on fanatics, but I thought I'd post here as well for the local crew woot
Got it a week ago, 2002 330ci, exterior colour I'm still trying to determine, apparently it's an individual colour, it has the same colour trim inside on black leather. sport, prem, and m appearance packages. Truly a dream come true for me.
The pics are crappy quality, taken at a friend's house with his camcorder however I'll be taking better pics with my camera along with some interior shots as well.
Enjoy :D

Congratulations on the new ride. Now you have to start the mods :) (it's the law around here apparently). My suggestion is to start with some nice 19" rims woot

Very nice, great looking car.

congrats!!!!

[Tutankhamon]

thank you all for the kind words
I am currently looking into the rim/tire situation. I need to get off my setup right now since I'm riding on winters (big no no for summers). Looking for either acs type 3's or csl's. Basically I need a nice and somewhat sporty setup for not a whole lot of $$.
I'll be posting up much better and more complete pictures tonight, perhaps some of the photoshop gods will help me out.
Thanks again.

Well ACS Type 3s are very $$$ and kina heavy. If you are looking for a good deal, then the CSL rims that Chris gets are good bang for buck and look great from what I have seen.

Congrats on the new (to you) car.. I believe the colour should be listed on a plaque on the driver's side shock tower, under the hood..

I like the look of the CSL's over the ACS..

[Tutankhamon]

Yeah you guys are really starting to sway me towards the CSL's... I'm just really worried about damaging the rim and/or losing performance by going to a 19 (Which in my opinion is the minimum size for that rim to look fantastic). Original plan was to go with 18's. Are the CSL's solid? The ACS would be reps, I wouldn't want to spend that much on rims at this point and if I did, I'd get my hands on HRE's or DPE's.

If you want to see the CSL 19's.... contact me next week. My car is in the shop right now getting some things done and fenders rolled properly at Excellence Auto Body.

I believe there are a set of 18" BBS RGR for sale here aswell. IMO, BBS are the greatest wheels every, and the RGR is very light.

Will definitely be doing some serious thinking about the wheel/tire situation.
Better pics of the ride as promised:

Congrats! Definitely check out the CSL's on Chris' car (when it's available) to get an idea of how they look ...

Good advice
I'd like to see these wheels both in person and photoshopped on my car. Perhaps I'll provide a good side profile pic of my car along with csl wheels and see what the photoshop experts here can do. I'm starting to lean towards the CSLs over the ACS III... at first I thought they were ok, but they're really starting to grow on me now.
