I'm on the same boat!

I believe it looks really nice, it gives some contrast, plus the lip itself its going to get scraped a lot... but at the same time when painted like abirmaher's makes the car more aggressive (in my opinion.)

The matte black splitter is okay. I would encourage you to have it painted. Can't wait to see what you decide.

i think the contrast looks great on the alpine white or the estoril blue. matte black on metallic black seems a bit off to me. i think I'm going to have it painted.

Got my Black Mirror covers

Bought a set of white mirror covers off here and finally got them painted. Took three attempts. I tried to paint the first time, and they looked good up until the clear didn't like the base. 2nd place (body shop) painted them with runs all in them. Sanded them back down and took them to another shop. They aren't perfect but look great after I sanded and buffed them.

Absolutely stunning ! Can't wait to see the rest of the pictures. The M235i looks awsome in white as well with PParts, but I'd go definitly with black.
Wondering how black V710/VB3 'd look like on a black M235i

Those look great! Please post some more pictures I have the same wheels on the way. Are those 18" or 19"? I went with 18's and PSS.

Hey Db750 and all, Sorry for such the late response, More pictures on the way, but had bilstein coilovers installed a few weeks ago. Love the look and ride quality over stock suspension is night and day. They're 19's wrapped in hankook ventus evo II's by the way.
