- BC Racing Coilovers
- Apexi N1 non-resonated catback
- 'F' blue painted calipers
- Gloss black roof wrap and chrome trims and CB hood vent and rear wing wrap

Wonderful photos which really show off that great colour! I love the wheels, particularly the deep dishing at the back - I'll bet they look great on the roll. Well done!

Looks amazing! Really digging the blue accents against the red (calipers, exhaust tips / F badge)

What size tires are you running?

That red is definitely unique and rare... I love this color personally. Looking forward to other people with this color start modding their cars. It's one of my personal favorites. How do you like the A'PEXi exhaust? We just got done installing one for one of our client's RCF's here. It has a nice sound in my opinion. It's a low rumble at idle but when you get on it, it sounds like a mean beast. Great looking RCF!!

Your RCF looks great! Personally I think one needs to exercise caution/restraint when modding the RCF as it is already such an aggressive and polarizing design. If you go over top with the spoilers, lips, wings, etc the car ends up looking like a Honda Accord. What you have done is perfect IMO, and your choice of mods work great with not only the design of the RCF in general, but also your specific exterior color.

The wheel choice is spot on; concave and aggressive looks best on the RCF. You choose a design and color that looks like it could have come straight from the factory that way, but to the enthusiast or observant layman they are clearly a classy custom upgrade. The stance and fitament is spot on. Not too low, not too high; just right. As another poster mentioned, and having not seen it I would have been unable to guess, but your blue accenting works great and adds that little extra pop all while paying homage to the "F" brand.

This is another one of my favorite RCF builds on this board along with member "Zydan's" white RCF. It looks fantastic in pictures, but I am sure on the road it is a show stopper and gets tons of looks and thumbs up. I think at this point if you continue modding it would be best to go with performance or interior upgrades as I think you have reached near perfection with your car appearance wise. The only other thing I can think of exterior wise, and I'm not even sure if it is offered for the RCF, would be some subtle CF additions such as mirror caps or spoiler replacement. I have these items on both of my BMW's and was surprised at not only how great they look, but also how many compliments I get on them from strangers!

Overall just a very beautiful RCF! Very, very well done, sir!

NICE! Very Tastefully Done in my opinion. Did you paint your calipers or did you have a shop do them?

Agreeing with all the above comments, your car is stunning! The wheels on the red is just perfect. Really awesome job. How is the interior sound with the non-resonated Apexi? Any loud droning? And as said above, I wouldn't do anything more to the exterior, it's perfect.

BTW, did you use another model's BC Racing coils?
