I like carbon a lot on white, not as much on darker cars it doesnt stand out enough. We put carbon mirror caps on the X5, my wife loves them.

Purchased the front lip from Pro Tuning in Latvia. Came shipped in a really massive box to guarantee no damage.

👆above is the link to the company i found the item. They have an ebay store that you can buy it from too. Spoiler i purchased over a year ago from an Ebay company aswell. As we all know, its really hard to find nice accessories to personalize our cars. So far im happy with my purchases. Items and sellers had good reviews so i pulled the plug.

Your car has been done very tastefully. Very nice. Is the rear spoiler simply 3m adhesive?

Yes. Spoiler came pre-installed with 3m tape on it. I have a pretty cool installation technique that gets it perfect everytime.

Wanted to get some opinions before making a move on a mod on my car. Was thinking of wrapping the roof in Carbon Fibre. Just wanted some opinions before wrapping it. Dont want to over-do things. Im on both sides of doing it.

I think a roof full of carbon fiber on a white car would be over doing it -- and hideous. But it is a matter of taste and the only opinion that counts is your own.

Looks stunning as is, great with the white body, as others have said, wouldn't do the roof, it will be too much IMO, however, it's your car and always a fan of people doing something custom that really makes it their own (just wouldn't want to own it then!)

I'd be concerned that the Ontario roads would make short work of the front spoiler but imagine you will be careful.

Safe travels. Thanks for sharing the pics.
