Whoa, very nice custom color choice !!! That color'd be easily recognizable far down the road, can't wait to see the final product. Oh, how about the inside engine compartment panels? How do they get paint?

If it only was a BMW color because it not.

I got a shop here in VA that matches the GFM very well. Got both my lip kits done and a fender. I'd say its 9.5 out of 10. Looks great...
