very nicely done! i like the interior color with the exterior combo. the wheels are a tough one to like but i think they work to update the car nicely.

Amgeater2 · 05-07-2014, 03:54 PM

NICE !!!

mister wiggles · 05-07-2014, 04:00 PM

need some attention in the wheels department. these reps are not very accurate and have a chunky face design (too many edges). All other components are on point!

Thanks for sharing your photos.

haha true dat on 'Straya mate, everything's price tag is doubled here, sometimes tripled. Shipping cost wasn't so bad for the most of time, so usually it's way cheaper for us to order parts from overseas than buy it from local dealer. I must tell you that I ain't no successful aussie tho, still a law school student but thanks for the kind words!

Yea I agree, the M6 GC replica is actually not too bad despite the fact it's kinda heavy, and it's actually not concave enough compared to the genuine ones. I had a chance to get a set of genuine ones but the offset just too aggressive.

But these wheels are just for fun tbh, I'm saving up for some decent forged wheels like HRE P40S, or maybe you got some better suggestions?

Thanks man, these M6 GC wheels are actually aftermarket replica, a bit quite heavy, and it's not as concave as the genuine ones. Planning save up for some forged wheels in the future, like HRE maybe

yea bro the GruppeM intake for n52 is the best, quite pricy but sounds too good. lol Will keep everyone updated on NBT for sure, stay tuned!
