Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists, London, Ontario – Bryan and team
I want to thank Bryan and his team for the excellent work he has done with the wheels, it turned out awesome and I cannot ask for anything more, super friendly and laid back, very easy to work with. Even though I did end up changing the wheels at the end, you can still see from the photos posted of the 666 wheels that it looked awesome!

I want to thank Pierrik for making this purchase possible, If you need a BMW and you are either in Ontario or Quebec, contact Pierrik!

Budds' Collision Services Ltd., Oakville, Ontario – Ian and team
I want to thank Ian for taking the time with me to go over the different options for the paint and doing an amazing job on the hood and door handles, it’s the small details that makes a big difference.

Budds BMW Oakville, Oakville, Ontario – Stephen, Paulo and team
I want to thank Stephen, Paulo and team for helping me with some of the installation. This is the second time I worked with Stephen and Paulo and it is always a pleasure to work with them as they always keep you updated so you are always in the loop.

Fanshawe Motors, London, Ontario – Adrian and team
I want to thank Adrian and his team for everything that they have done for the build, not only do they helped me with the build; they are also my local go to for any issues with my car. Very reliable, honest and easy to work with.

Scotty's Shine Shop, London, Ontario – Scott and team
I want to thank Scott for all the advice and options he offered me, great service, highly recommended since this will be my baby for years to come and I want to protect it as much as I can. Super friendly and very knowledgeable with the products and industry he is in.

Sekanskin, Toronto, Ontario – Ryan, JJ and team
I want to give a big shootout to Ryan, JJ and team at Sekanskin, amazing job on the wrap, great customer service, highly recommended. Their work and portfolio speaks for itself!

Last but not least, thank you all for your support, love, comment, suggestions here on the forum, looking forward to continue getting more knowledge from all of you in the future.

Beautiful car! IMHO I think the regular blue calipers would have also popped and looked great on this car. Any reason you chose to paint them?

dzhou102684 · 10-19-2018, 10:03 AM

Hey, yep I agree that blue would pop as well, just to me, the yellow matches up a bit more with orange, also the bmw blue is more navy than light light, so this yellow would pop more IMO since it's more of a bright yellow.

Beautiful, and tastefully done unlike so many such projects. Subtly aggressive.

(Not feeling the yellow calipers, though. Would have gone for black with silver or orange lettering.)

dzhou102684 · 10-19-2018, 01:31 PM

Thank you, thank you. I like your idea for the black calipers, maybe that's what I'll do next time when I need to change it!

Love how the SO turned out. I have a SO m4 and it's nice to see what can be done. Everything else is very tasteful and aggressive, I like. I'd say maybe change the calipers to a darker color, but the yellow works as well. Nice car, thanks for sharing.

Thank you, thank you. Someone suggested black calipers with orange lettering, which I just might have to do next time I change the breaks

babamike · 10-19-2018, 05:22 PM

Looks awesome. Congrats.
Which province are you from ? Don't you require front licence plate ?
I'm in BC and haven't installed mine yet but I know I will get a ticket.
Thinking about ordering the one for tow hook mount.

dzhou102684 · 10-19-2018, 08:31 PM

Thank you, thank you. I'm from Ontario, so yes, definitely need a front plate, but I'm just pushing my luck till I get a ticket lol.

I do have a front tow hook mount from us mills work and honestly that's the best to get in terms on quality and how easy it is to use.

You can get them shipped directly to Canada or, if ur anywhere near Vancouver or Richmond, you can get it shipped to point Roberts and save the duty.
