The atlantic blue looks much better in dirty condition IMO...did you add any extra (like matte ppf)?

This is probably as dirty as it will ever get. Since driving to vote in yesterday's rain in San Diego I haven't had a chance to clean her up yet.

I’m late to the party, but am kicking off our first winter in the M3. So far just a dusting of snow but the Alpin 5’s seem amazing and can’t wait for the first snow storm.

We are going to buy a Ryobi under car pressure washer mount today though. The county was spreading salt already.

I love seeing these cars driven!

One benefit over a dirty car is that we don’t have to obsess about door jam water drip spots on a pristine piano black rocker panel. LOL

Yeah but why are the rims still dirty? Is that dirt or brake dust? Put some muscle into the wash

Rims were wet, that's all

Forzanerazzurri · 11-25-2022, 10:34 AM

YasPlz_CSL · 11-25-2022, 12:04 PM

Thanks! They have been kind of a flop on Bimmerpost, but we couldn't be happier with the classic M look.

These are forged replica 359M's in Hyper Silver, which were OEM on the E46 CSL's. They are my winter set with PA5's so are 19" all around.

La Forge Industries made them specifically for my order, and as far as I know this is the only set of 359M replicas for a G80 that exist. There is an LFI thread in the wheels forum and there are more pics over there.

They weigh about 22 pounds per wheel and were around $2,300 shipped.

Personally I think they look great. I like the traditional BMW silver wheels, getting tired of black wheels on everything. If you're happy with them then it really doesn't matter what everyone else thinks.

BTW I have some wheels on the way from LFI and I hope they turn out as nice as yours.
