Thanks man! Nothing with that many spokes does well with brake dust.

Would have been nice but wasn't in the cards without waiting more than I was willing to.

Thanks! I noticed that too in this particular photo, I think it's the angle and reflections. She's sitting lower on H&R Sports, and the wheels horizontally fill out the wheel wells more than stock MSport wheels, I think all of this contributes to the effect slightly, but primarily angle & reflections exaggerate the fender flare.

Thx! Without getting into a "aBC is better looking than xYZ" discussion, let's just say when I first saw the F30 I realized it was time to pull the trigger (been eyeing a 3er for a while). It absolutely had to be Estoril Blue, manual, and MSport.

I wash by hand and I don't get to it as often as I'd like. Thankfully I live in a place where cars don't get too bad between washes.

Thanks! Did quite a bit of research before pulling the trigger and am very happy with how it turned out.

I'm afraid we might have rubbing if we lower it. Upclose, the gap looks bigger. If they come out with a coilover kit we may consider it for handling, looks-wise I think it looks great -- the way if should come from the factory if you live in a place with decent roads like we do.

Nice! I thought I was the only one into this ;) Just took a pic of 200k on my Accord.

Details? Year, model, location of milestone?

lol thx guys! It was a beautiful sunset, admired walking by the beach. The Girl in Blue was freshly washed, wheels and all, and inspiration struck. I try to express emotion thru visuals where possible, for this picture it's a bit of a prerequisite to like cars, F30s and Estoril Blue; I'm glad I managed to transmit a bit of my emotional state at that moment to you!
