Im not going to lie, the Z3 fenders are only there because they are cheaper than stock ones and my stock ones were really messed up after I hit a roo. I do want to put different ones on. Have a look and tell me if you think my car looks "ricey". I dont actually mind what you say, Im just interested to see what your definition actually is, since I have heard so many definitions throughout the thread. Yes it is slightly off colour. It was installed and painted in my backyard by a mate and myself because i wanted to see if it looked ok before I forked out and got it professionally painted and fitted.

I also have a cold air intake and catback exhaust system, as Im sure that too will alter your opinion, although not visible at all.

Get something that flows subtlety with the car, not a ridiculous kit with lots of mesh that is lower than your stock pieces.

It's not my style. I don't like the look.

Dont be sorry, Im not offended. If I was to change out the fenders to OEM, would you consider it ricey? Is the body kit too excessive? Just shooting for opinions.

for me it's the fenders and front and rear bumpers.
i think OEM bumpers with lips would look better. Then paint to match. nothing else bugs me.

EDIT: i like those side skirts, suprisingly. they're simple, yet they look sick

Agreed 100%. Please on please paint it though. 2 tone paint doesn't work imo.
