what do you class as OEM modifications if the same design wheels but 1 inch bigger, and slight lowerage arent?

i've thought about black b-pillars yea, but i was a bit unsure about there being a slight lip at the top of the pillar where the black would join back into the original paintwork. Anyone had it done?

Yeah I had it done, it's quite an easy mod, bit of a rubbish pic but you get the idea!

I've always thought OEM+ stopped when you: smooth bumpers, change alloys, and added anything different like mirrors, spoilers, splitters.

OEM+ can go up to lowering, changing badge colours, removing badges, changing plates/wipers etc imo

Everything on my car bar the suspension of course is a standard part.

My idea of OEM+ is just about everything you said though, standard wheels and not adding any parts not made for the car which I haven't done.
