Here is my car which is fitted with a rieger GTS kit. I want to keep the side skirts but 'tone down' the front and back bumpers if possible by replacing them with something else.

Question is, what if anything would work with the side skirts?

I don't think anything will work with those skirts.

Remove all the fibre gash and as Alex said, fit a tech one kit.

Oh and change the wheels for something more tastefull.

Thats my oppinion though and as said, its your car. :)

mmm.. I have owned a standard 325i and one of the things which attracted me to this car was the fact that it is a bit different. When I saw it for sale it was one of those 'I've gotta have it moments!!' The wheels are in such great condition that they are not going to be replaced, besides I really like them. some days i really like the fibre gash but on others it does get on my nerves a bit!!

Considering that the car needs money etc spending in other areas far more desperately than the general aesthetics, I think for the time being i shall leave it's appearance as it is. I'll probably end up getting myself another more standard E30 as a daily driver and keep this for summer madness. - It's pretty quick when it's actually running right so I'm half considering a roll cage inside a very stripped interior. Road legal track monster? :D

I don't mind the wheels but the kit....mmmm
Is it one from the US?
Are the huge front and rears to cover their weird "crash reg" bumpers
