I was able to install the smoked corners and the k&n filter... I also had the rear carbon diffuser mounted and painted.

SMOKED CORNERS

Here is a comparison with the passenger side smoked corner light and driver side oem corner light.




and when they are both installed....

F*** that little intake, I'd take the airbox of those ITB's and get it retuned, really let it breathe.

Wow your car looks great already! Can't wait for any future updates!

Where did you buy your carbon fiber vinyl from? it looks truly amazing! Also, what size sheet would you recommend for doing the trim inside of a vehicle?

Well that was dumb of BMW to place sensors before the throttles, I meant just take the whole thing off altogether and run it like true ITB's.
