nope. CUSTOM. haha. i went to the auto shop the other day and purchased a roll of CF layout. Some douch bag somehow for some reason scratched my pillar in the school parking structure. Maybe with a back bag or something. Whatever. So to fix a minor detail I just cut the layout and stuck it on there. Not bad for $15 IMO. Doesn't matter what anyone else says cuz I like how it turned out. Not perfect yet but good enough for the meantime.

So yesterday I hung out with Harold and Brian at the shop getting Harold new 19s for his 328i. I came across some spacers that "i was able to grab" while there. I was thinking of putting them on the back wheels to space them out either 5mm or 10mm. Does anyone know if I would need longer lugs if i were to use either one of these spacers? and if so, where can i get some longer lugs if needed.

btw, brian was able to get hooked up on fixing his new set of RD wheels. Now they look and sit better than before. We both got hooked up just chilling with Harold.

You would certainly need longer studs. You can try the local autoparts stores and try to match the bolt type and thread pitch (just longer) or you could just convert to studs like I did. I went with the Turner setup because I track my car but Ebay and Vorshlag are less expensive alternatives.

BTW:Eibach wheels spacers come with the longer bolts.
