Any body got a any picyutres of 15" BBS that have been painted 'Nagaro'.

I have been wanting to get a set refurbed and painted for ages, so just want to see what they look like on a car before i get them done.

Not really sure which bits should stay silver? if any at all?

Thanks :D

cheers guys these pics are perfect, exactly what i was after! :D

One question though... should i have the big centre nut painted on the centre caps? or not leave it silver as pictured above?

Also anybody got a paint code for this colour and right spelling for name?

Thanks :D

How do they look when they came from the factory (sorry I mean the nut) and which cars did these come on?

the e30 motorsport cabbies, and e30 m3 sport evos were the only two which came with the grey centred wheels. both had grey centre nuts too.

oddly, the black centred wheels on the m3 cecotto / ravaglia had a silver centre nut.
cheers,

Are the wheels any different other than the color when compared to other e30 BBS? I know that there is a pretty uncommon e30 BBS that are staggered, but these aren't. The reason I ask is because I have a really nice non staggered set on one of my tourings in this color.
