Quick mod for $5 and a .99 cent spoiler
Went to staples and picked up 1/4 inch red vinyl tape for the wheels and also won a spoiler on Ebay for .99 cents. That damn mod bug hits hard in May

yeah i like the red on the rims, very nice touch.. my freind has done the same on his Audi A5 convertible with a red roof and wrapped the body in matt black, looks really good on black cars aswell, almost has an A Team effect..

the spoiler is not bad but I see a gap between it and the wing. does the water drain all the way or it stays there?

Your E53 is one of my favorite. Good job! If I ever see you around, I'll cruise by your side.

Nice touches. The red "time attack" line is interesting. It breaks up the blackness of your wheels. I hope it doesn't peel off too easily. That spoiler is cool. Did it come pre-painted? Either way, for under a buck it is a good find.

I'd be willing to bet that gap is the exact height of a piece of double stick tape, in which case you could just leave a small gap in the middle to let water trickle through if it gets trapped up there.
