So I had a Ranger forever then a Ram and for the first time in my life I bought a car. Its a 2003 325i, heres the thing I joined a BMW forum but they seem to be weird people with completely different taste than I do. For instance they think that me painting the black trim on the car white to match was a bad idea and that it would look better black and also that a black grill would look better and that maybe having my wheels be gold instead of white would be better too just loool right...
I already did a few things and Im getting rid of the front lisence plate as we speak, but am just looking for some feedback/suggestions from people that understand our style, only thing is I cant really bag it/lower it more right now because its my daily and I work pretty far away from home.
More pics in my profile, thanks.

I also think painting the black trim white would be too much white. I personally would lower the back more and that is it. keep the wheels white

maybe tint the tails? I like the tinted tail look on white cars. Also maybe remove some of the emblems to clean it up?

Car looks sick. Throw some juice on it or just lower it a bit in the rear. I like the black roof look too. Think about it

I think it looks just fine being all white like that. But I drive a white Magnum, thats quite a bit of solid white. Maybe you should just remove the door trim from the sides and the series emblems from the trunk and just leave the shield in the middle. And depending on the local police, look into tinting the tails.

It looks good as it sits. Maybe lower the rear just a little.

I think the car looks great! Dont' touch it. If that were my car I'd get some kind of adjustable suspension (I drive 85 miles/day) and put a nice stereo in it. A site that I visit a lot is http://www.stanceworks.com/ and there is a lot of BMW owners on there if you want more ideas.

stanceworks.com is a great site, but you will want an adjustable suspension after looking at a few pics there. I'm already planning for the Magnum after my Mazda is done.
