My computer that had Photoshop on it broke if somebody could just get rid of the fender gap and make the wheels white that would be awesome. (I'm uploading two different size pics bc I'm on my phone and I'm not sure How big they truly are)

And sorry for the crappy cell phone pic

I really believe that a mild H&R sport springs and spacers would make your car look 1000X better. Sport springs cost 240 and you can use the OEM shocks/struts. Spacers with 15 to 20mm will make that huge change. To pull the white wheels off, you'll need to work hard on your suspension. Invest a lot of money and at the end you might not like it. Before coilovers I had H&R sport, and I loved it. Get H&R until you are ready to jump on coilovers.

Can someone do one with a moderate drop (just to cover the wheel gap) and one slammed of each. Trying to see what it would look like when i get my coilovers. Thanks

2 or 2.5" drop (no wheel gap) on silver 19" v718's please, as well as an m3 front bumper. Or just the most you can do.

I would love for someone to do mine. Lowered with Beyern Rapp wheels (black with mirrored lip if you can find them). That would be awesome. And red Angel Eyes! Lol
