Hey guys im new to the forum. I've always loved 02's and finally decided to get one. I live in San Diego, CA. Heres some pics of mine. Love this little machine!!!

needs a drop and you need to black out the rear chrome around the tail lights, but looks good man!

Looks very good. I like the clean lines. Color choice is sharp. Are those rims gun metal finish?

I took the side markers off mine as well. Bumpers were the first thing gone.

[bimmerboi]

Yep suspension parts are on the way!

[bimmerboi]

wow love the looks of yours! what kind of suspension is yours on?

[Koblenz]

Thanks! IE stage 1. I really like your rims!

Yeah thats what i want for mine. How does it handle? and what did you have to do to not have it rub? Yeah my rims are the xxr 513's. Pretty cheap but a great looking wheel.

WOW!! i need those!!!! lol

There is no rub on the rear at all. The front wil if I get on it in a turn but not much. If I hit a bump the front wil tap. I'm running 205 50 15s. There is a slight rake to the car.

What I did was put my spacer back under the front strut bearing. This brought the front up about .5 inch. No rub, no rake. I should have rolled the fenders but had it painted without thinking.

Where did you get your rims? You car looks very good! I like the clean lines.

Im planning on rolling my fenders and then lowering it. I got the H & R springs so that should be about the same as the IE stage 1 springs. But your stance is exactly what i want. What size of tires are those? I have 195/50/15 right now but i want to go to a 195/45/15.

Thanks. Your plan should work fine. I had to edit. The tires are 205 50 15.
