Wrap done by Up Next Auto Designs in East Los Angeles.

I've wondered about these black plates with white text - what's the deal with them? Unofficial I guess?

Yes, unofficial. Vinyl wrapped license plates popped up about 1-2 years ago, so it's fairly new. You can have them done in older style CA plates to custom combination of colored text & backgrounds. I've came across only a handful of wrap shops in OC/LA which is probably why you them floating around in the wild and seeing more & more now.

Definitely looks at home on BBSs! Awesome set up!

agustincuenca · 05-20-2022, 08:37 PM

Clean, with Eibachs V1 Euro, 15mm spacers in the front, 12mm in the rear. I sent the chrome exhaust tips to powder coat gloss black to finish up the blacked out treatment.

Bump with a freshly washed BSM. (Moved from the 82/83 thread, whoops).

No rubbing on the front! The G80 spec P4S 275 front tread width is not as wide as the generic P4S 275 so it is the perfect fitment for the F80! My tire shop compared the two "same" size tires side by side and the G80 P4S was not as wide by about 1/2" unmounted.

I didn't directly compare … but I think the G80 spec 275 is a hair wider than the generic 265. Biggest difference is the tire compound … much better traction and steering response.

The car looks so good I couldn’t contain myself……….
