APEX was lucky enough to have a brand new BMW M235i in our facilities for a photoshoot. We felt our EC-7 Wheels in Race Silver complemented the Estoril paint job and looked right at home on this car. The bodylines to the M235i are smooth and transition so nicely; shooting and lighting this car was fairly easy with our overhead Chimera light bank. From the owners perspective, it was amazing to see their car in a studio setting. The lighting highlighted the body lines while creating natural shadows that can be seen sweeping across the side of the car. Based on the excitement in the room while the car was being shot, we could certainly tell the owner was very pleased with their new purchase!
