Cant go wrong with RKII's. That front lip is nice!

Here's mine, picked it up in March. 2011 fully loaded minus zcp, but the PO added ZCP wheels, H&R race springs, spacers out back, tints, ACM mod, test pipes, and GTS DCT tune. I did the perfomance spoiler and had the roof wrapped. Contemplating front carbon fiber splitters but I know I'll destroy them, otherwise may wrap the side mirrors in Black vinyl but exterior mods are done. Thinking about tweaking the suspension some more with a front swaybar and camber plates but all depends on whether I'll eventually make it to the track.

Love the drive on twisted roads!

Where are all the SSII's at??

Its actually replica

Realized I hadn't posted mine in here yet. Picked up in July and loving it.

Silverstone I think is the only color that the chrome grilled and side vents are acceptable with. However, I still think I want to get black chrome edition grilles and size vent marker. I wanted to ask you guys what side vent scheme is best with the plan of not changing the 359 wheels? Leaving it chrome? Painted Silverstone with no tint on signal or dark tint? Or what I'm leaning towards is black chrome with dark tint.

Here are some different side marker looks.

First two options look best. I don't like the tinted LED at all. I think the gloss black works best but the paint matched looks good too

Thanks. Yea I'm a little hesitant to get the tinted marker.

Other option not pictured is body color Silverstone, with non-tinted.

Hey all SSII owners...thoughts on upgrading the front grills to the F8X style?
I'm hard-pressed on whether I like the E9X front grilles or the newer style.

IMO it always looks off for me. I think just gloss black E9X style suits our cars the best.

Ok good point! Btw, update your signature with the new car

I'm neutral on it.

The F82 looks sooooo much better with it compared to the F32.

On our cars I prefer to keep it original to its own design. Same reason I prefer OEM headlight housing vs headlight blackouts. I think the car just ages better with an OEM plus look.

That said, while I don't think the grilles necessarily look bad on the E9X M3's I wouldn't do it myself. I don't think it looks better or newer with it.
