Do you need extended lugs with those?

Finally getting around to posting some pics, even though they aren't that exciting. Got the spacers in, ordered them off of Ebay x2 and I'm pretty happy with the quality of them. Shipping was super fast as well. My two rear CHs were ever so slightly rusted/stuck on the hub so after busting them off, I applied anti-seize to all the hubs and spacers. Overall it went smooth and the car was smoother (obviously) riding on the larger meat (that's what she said). Put the car in storage for the next 3 or so months until the snow and salt go away.

Those are some pretty rotors...

Debating on what to do next with the car, I feel mildly bored with it which is an odd feeling to have. I really want to do different wheels but multipiece BBS instead of the CHs, but this may run between 2-3k for wheels. The other more feasible option is to complete the BMWP brakes by getting rears and new rotors/pads all off ECS. The other minor thing I can do it get BMWP pedals to complete the set (already have the sedan ///M foot rest).
Need to repaint the bumper this spring as well and would love to install a full CF front lip spoiler but don’t know where to find one.
Anybody know what the paint code is for the mustard yellow calipers? You can get a set of gray ones used on eBay for 300-400 bucks.
Edit: apparently it is Phoenix yellow 445
I could be wrong as well, they just appear to look the same
They are identical to the 135i stock brakes but painted Phoenix yellow vs the grey. The rear calipers most likely have to flip left and right sides since the position of the caliper different than the E9x/E8x cars.
