Weather Tech, this is a good conversation, I was going to order the fronts the other day, but wasn't sure how well they'd match the interior, I have Grey (the color of dark shale stone) and wasn't sure how well it would match...

Please, post some pics to help with my decision... Thanks guys!!

UPDATE 4/4/2014
- Hey! Sorry I haven't been around to respond to comments and what not, however, I got some good news. My floor mats came in today and I installed them. 5/5 stars. The grey was a great choice for the tan interior because it went well with the dashboard. I also figured I would go get my tint today. I got 5% in the rear windows, and 35% on the front windows. Paid $130 for them and lifetime warranty. I could've gotten it for cheaper but it was close to the house and they have been in business for a long time. Was told that it takes 2-3 days to cure so I can't roll my windows down. I still need to steam clean my carpets because they were dirty. I did clean some of it off with some Resolve, and I must say it works really good. Just dabbed it a little with water, shake and spray, let it sit for few minutes, and dab off with warm water. It was going good until I ran out. But I will probably finish tomorrow.

- They fit perfect! Now I don't mind swinging my feet into the car, before the floormats, I was very careful. And as far as lowering the car, it's one of those things that I keep saying that I'm going to do, but never get to it. I been picking up overtime at work and I go to school Monday-Thursday. So I am hoping sometime this week.

- I love the LFA style wheels. I think I am changing what wheels I want. I been shopping around with Rotiforms and Avant Garde. My brother is a manager at a tire shop in Signal Hill, CA. So, he was giving me some digits for it and it falls in my budget. But I haven't chose a specific wheel yet.

- Haha, yeah California prices are a lot cheaper because they have the shops all over the place. Just in my neighborhood alone, I have about 4 tint shops.

$800 is cheap !!!! holy shhhhh
You practically repainted the whole car for that price.

That's like Maaco price with shhhty paint.

I need to get my rear spoiler repainted. I'll keep that shop in mind.

My front bumper is also dinged, and scratched at the bottom from scraping.

Do you know what brand of paint they used?


I just read some reviews of this body shop, and long beach bmw uses this shop, so it can't be bad.

UPDATE 4/14/2014

So I haven't been on and able to update for you guys because it was my birthday yesterday. So the whole week my girlfriend had stuff planned for me, and that ***** was exciting.

Well to the goodies, I finally got to installing my weather-tech visors. Easier install then I thought it would be. The visors itself has no clips, but they simply slide into place with the weather strips on the door. They actually hold really well. Another good thing about them is that when your driving, it doesn't create a lot of sound. It is really minimal and that was a big for me. The only for me is the fact that the visors didn't come in a darker shade. The only option on there website was for light, but for $100, I can't complain.

Also, I finally got my front lip back from my paint shop. They color matched the front lip for me after I got the front end on, but he didn't charge me for it. He still had some paint left over. My girlfriend ordered the front lip for me from www.visracing.com. However, the only thing I really complained about was about it being fiber material. I would've preferred the polyurethane, but she didn't know. Than again, I'm blessed to have a women that knows I want things for my car. Haha. Right? The lip did come with hardware, but there was no need to use it, I just reused the screws that mounted up the splash guards. Let me know what you guys think.

Personally, I dont like the window visors at all. The only ones id put on my car would be the jdm oem ones, but at what they cost I wouldnt bother.

That lip kit doesn't look like it has a great fit and again Im personally not a fan of it.

But its your car, so if you like it, thats all that matters!
