Personally i think caribic blue suits the rieger style bumper quite well,but i would say that as its on my car,any comments are welcome. I sprayed it myself in my gazeebo inspired back garden spray boothe using my new compressor. big thanks to cfuk by the way who sold me the bumper 
some smoked head lights are next on the list me thinks
got a 60mm lowering kit waiting to go on too.was going to sell it but looking at some of these pics i think it would do with it.
Ive painted all behind the mesh with some matt black hammerite as i think it looks terrible if its just left unpainted.
not too happy with the gap between the bonnet but i had the same size gap with my mormail corsa bumper so i might try and sort the bonnet out.its in desperate need of a respray anyway.
if anyone can guess where i got the mesh from can have some for free.

It is the dietrich bumper actually but i didnt know how to spell that  and they pretty much look the same. thanks for all the comments by the way,think ill get a move on fitting my 60mm shocks and springs,just need to buy a set of spring compressors and then ill do it.
has anyone got any pics of the stienmets side skirts fitted to their car? i really like the irmscher ones but people are asking over £100 for them and i already have the m3 side skirts so i mite just put them on.

The wheel offset is 49 i think and they are 17's.I think the wheels will look alot better when the car is lowerd.I think the size looks spot on in real life though and would only drop to a set of 16s for the extra comfort and better handling. ive got a set of v6 calipers and 288mm disks ready to go on so i cant really go any lower than 16 inches.

well ive test fitted the 60 mm rear springs and the tyres rubbed slightly.even with the arch blots removed.but its only a tiny bit so i will just slightly trim the metal back then put the plastic arch back on.(after triming away the slight lip uner the arch.should be fine.
