I presumed the foglight one you're referring to was a photo of the blacked-out reflector strip - it's the centre of the photo, the foglamp is to the left. Also, what's the difference between covering your carpet with a rubber or carpet mat in this context?

It's the second photo in the first post. The fog light is surrounded by what appears to be damaged body part and paint

The rubber Mats are easier to clean and when they are dressed they look good over and over again.
When black carpets get very dirty they never come clean and don't look tricked out. (so to speak)

yeah I think he was actually taking a pic of the blacked-out reflector strip there, not so much the foglamp. the reflector is near dead-center of the image, the foglamp is off to the left - the pic might be scrolling off to the right on your screen.

what exhaust have you got on there?
I know theres a few guys here interested in exhausts - so perhaps you could let them know what you tried, settled on and how it sounds and looks

I dont remember the exact name of the exhaust brand.... I was told that its German and is fitted on Mercedes-Benz right from the factory... If you tell me the name of their exhaust system I could tell you if it that name or not...

Yeah but I dont wont too put any bigger rims then the 19's that came stock with her... These are the European stock wheels I got for the summer also 19'

If I put rims any bigger the car will fall apart... Lack off roads in my country and BMW are way too fragile chassi... Compared too any of my Mercs...
