Tanzanite Blue G83 Mods near complete

After a couple months of research, poking around here and there, I am just about complete with the Appearance Mods to my G83. These include, full nose PPF ($2200), APEX wheels ($3000), Various CF bits...Kies Mirror Covers, NW CH rear Diffuser and Front Ducts (With Hex Mesh Mod), CT carbon side skirts, R44 Rear Spoiler and Rear Side Splitters, and Alpha-N front splitters. All in about $4200 for the 12 pieces of CF vs $4700 for 5 pieces of OEM that I didnt buy. All fitment of pieces was excellent BTW, installed all myself. Also installed the KW HAS ($800 for Kit $700 install), I would have went the way of the M-performance HAS but they do not yet make one for the G83, which is in itself ridiculous since KW makes the Mperformance kit for the G82, rebranded...so why not also rebrand the KW version for the G83???!!!. The Rear is all way down and the fronts are set to match that gap, about a finger;-) Rears were lowered 1" total (Max) and fronts lowered 1" (still about 1/4" left). Clearance up front varies from 5-6" depending on where you measure. Side skirts have 4.25" clearance up front and 5" at rear (plus or minus). No hits, rubs or issues. Ride is still very good, maybe lost 25% of "softness" in ride but not jarring at all. Firm, "dense" and solid feeling, yet not as firm (hard?) as my F90 M5C. Steering also seems more responsive if that makes sense. Some side by side comparo's of before and after below....Im no Photographer BTW.

Yes, they are 19 x 10 Et 12 and 20 x 11 ET 18. The size and offset are perfect for this car. I went with Conti's DWS AS and love the way they ride 275/35/19 and 295/30/20.

BTW they are almost an exact match of M2 CS OEM 763M wheels (Which is why I went with them)
