I still got CF mirror caps, but I've removed the CF door handles, used gloss black instead, looks way better!

Right now I got 10mm spacers all around, thinking about getting 15mm or 20mm spacers for rear wheels. Should I? Will it affect driving at all?

Try a 20mm. Worst case 15mm. I know guys that run 30mm sometimes no problem but on other cars.

Can't decide between 15 and 20. You got 10mm all around?

On my 21's I don't use spacers. Just the proper et's. The stock 20's definitely need 10 mm all around and you have that so looking at your pictures the rears look like they can def come out another 5mm for sure maybe even 20. 15mm would be the guarantee but 20mm might be the icing on the cake. Sucks but maybe get both and if not just do 15mm.

10mm all around is perfect with a drop. Stock height 10mm is slightly too much upfront with the stock tires which have a bulky rim guard but is as small as you can go while staying hubcentric with stock wheels. 10mm was perfect for the back in my case even without the drop but on yours they still look too tucked in for some reason perhaps try a 15mm rear on stock height. If I were you I'd consider a drop on KW HAS and go 10mm all around after the drop.

Also purchased Alcantara steering wheel with a little screen.
And Vorsteiner is being installed on Friday

Wheels shouldn't touch the body at all. Mine is lowered and spaced, the rear wheels are sitting flush with the wheel arches and with a very small gap too and there has never been any rub. What you will get is a lot more dirt and debris being kicked up from the road onto your car.

Actually at the time I was asking this question, I was thinking to ask you since I knew you lowered your car but I was not sure if you had installed the spacers.
Thanks anyways

What percent window tint do you have? Have you thought about doing a light smoke tint on your tail lights?

Thanks, I will post pics when everything is installed.
I've had a tint before, didn't look good with Sakhir Orange.

I got a 20% tint all around, I regret for not going 15% to be honest.

Black M6 logo came in
