They are expensive but you really do get what you pay for. Very pleased with the outcome. Been considering the larger wing to tie it all together, but for now I’m happy with what I’ve got.

I actually prefer it to the CF wing from the same people you bought your splitter and diffuser from. IMO their wing is gaudy and too big. |

That has been my biggest concern. I know everything in Texas is bigger but, it might just be too big. If that is even possible lol

Added carbon fiber 'eyelids' to cover up the ugly silver at the top of the headlights. This is from Chinese supplier, so will see how long they last. Also added M pedal covers and ECS stainless brake lines.

I’ve been sitting on my SS brake lines. Haven’t gotten around to installing them for over a year >.< how’re you liking them? Got a dead on shot of the eyelids with the entire front of the car?

As for the brake lines yes definitely a noticeable difference. Pedal firmness has improved and there is slightly less pedal travel as you apply more pressure. Had these on my E46, and that pedal was like a rock. My F23 is not like that but better than stock. The brake lines were the only thing I changed, and they old ones were about 2 years old / 20k miles so not really worn out. There are certainly a lot of opinions on these. In my case it is just personal preference. Not going to track the convertible. One thing to note that I did not know is that the front calipers have two bleed screws - one on the inside and one on the outside. I missed the one on the inside. Perhaps this is common knowledge for BMW performance brakes, but it was news to me and not something that I even would have researched.

Nice the eyelids look sharp. Thank you for your feedback. I had no idea about the dual bleed screws either. Glad you mentioned it because none of the reviews for the SS lines ever mentioned dual bleed screws

Do you have a shot of what the other side the mirrors look like? I'm wanting to possibly get these, but is there like a big weird looking gap above the glass for the "m" portion of the mirror caps? Or is that filled in somehow? If that makes sense... Wondering what the mirrors looks like from the drivers seat essentially.
Edit: Also, do they still fold up without any interferences?
