Looks good. Also, nice exhaust, just put the Magnaflows on my M5 and love them!!

Very nice! Couple of questions. Are you running 275/30/19 on all corners? If so, did you have to mod the fenders or use spacers? Also, where can you get the brake cooling grill?
Congrats and thanks for sharing!

Yes.

No Spacers or rolling of fenders needed IF you run a stock suspension. You will have issues if you lower the car. Coilovers are near impossible without spacers and even using Dinan Springs and Koni Yellows which is a mild drop, I had to roll the fenders a little bit to prevent rubbing of the tires.

Do a search on "Halo" or "Sink Drain Mod". Here is a link to get you started: "Sink Drain" mod, hole placement

The rings were bought from Lowe's it's part of the reflecting cone assembly for recessed lighting. I have to give props to the original poster for the creativity on this one!

Thanks! Your set up is very close to where I'm going. I gonna go with the Dinan Stage II. So bottom line is be prepared to roll the fenders in the front a bit ONLY when lowering, but NO SPACERS needed, right?

It all depends on what wheels you plan to get. IF you are going with my exact wheels, then the answer is yes and you will need to roll all four fenders. Any other wheel is a completely different issue that you will need to find out and unfortunately I cannot answer.

How's the ride ?? Any before/after drop pictures ?? Thinking of doing this instead of going Coilovers.
