And rightly so. I drove past it parked in downtown NA yesterday afternoon on my way home from work. It was glistening in the sunlight and upstaging absolutely everything else on the road.

A lovely car as always mate. A proper re-entry into e30 ownership!!! The 'peenarse wheels look lovely. What do the d90's look like? Didn't a zoner have them in gloss black on a touring a couple years ago??

Im not actually that keen on them to be honest.
Not sure if its the fact they are replicas they look a bit `shiny` or cause they are 4 stud or because the pic makes them look small,15" maybe?

Budget is going to play a big part on what I replace the Alpinas so need to raise as much as possible from the sale of them I think winkeye

The lights in the side of the bumpers - are they indicator repeaters instead of ones on the wings or do they come on with the lights? or both? Nice idea, quite easy to do i assume?

It has crossed my mind :cry:
Fooking hope not.Tried claiming for those E36 rear lights nearly 18 months ago and that has got nowhere.
first aid kit gone for good.

Just because it has `Royal` in its title people obviously expect an honest and efficient service.....biggest bunch of c*nts going!
