Hi Kedge, Yep usually bit cheaper, but more parts available E30s have very big following in Germany as well, good source is German Ebay lots of bits on there, Dave

[Kedge]

I thought they might be jugding by the amount of E30's on E30.de with spanking wheels.

[M3GTR]

i have 15inch bbs splitties and the offset is different to yours. et 16 and 18 i think. plus the fronts are 7 but me thinks that 8 inch all round will look the titties! Now i've seen it i'll try and go the same route! Looks fooking awsome, i'm bored of the Alpina's now

Cabrio327i,

Wow great looking car their mate, what Blue is she?. I love the convertibles with no spoiler and the genuine Hartop.

Very nice wheels are you putting a BMW logo on the wheels or are you staying with the BBS?.

Cheers Gareth

[Simon]

Looking good there Dave, very nice!
I need some in 17" too....

[Lordschleife]

Lovely rims!

Now get out there and wear the slippy crap off those new tyres before it rains!

[rare]

They are Frigin gorgeous

[cabrio327i]

Thanks for all the comments mates much appreciated, Gareth the colour is royal blue metallic , i think ill stay with the BBS logos but you never know next week could be BMW centres, Picked the hardtop up from Berlin when i took the car across in November paid Ԛ£450 for it and put it on the car to drive home, bought the wheels from Germany too, thanks again Dave.

[gazm3]

Dave,

Great bargin on your Hardtop mate. Some members on the zone, didn't believe me when I posted that Hardtops are loads cheaper in Germany.

Was your convertible originally a chrome bumpered car, as yours is the first Royal blue Mtech bumpered that Iv'e seen. My other cab is Royal Blue!.

Cheers Gareth.

[cabrio327i]

Hi Gareth, yes your right it was originally a chrome bumper car, Im quite lucky really having relations that live in Berlin, i have access to some good bits and pieces at times, lucky you having two cabs,Cheers Dave

[gazm3]

Dave,

So is your Mtech2 kit hiding the original chrome bumpers underneath?.

Or do they need to be completely removed, mounting brakets totally different?.

I think BMW made an Mtech2 kit that clamped onto the Chrome or used the original mounting brakets.

What the story with yours bud, any problems changing over to the Mtech 2?.

[cabrio327i]

Hi Gareth, The kit was on the car when i bought it so i dont really know much about how its fixed, ive had the front and rear bumpers removed to have painted last year but that was in the body shop, so not much help really mate, i know who ever fitted it though really made a good job of it cos you cant tell it from original ,cheers Dave

[gazm3]

Thanks Dave,

Your not much help are you!. Only joking.

I think Im working in York 2morrow. Small world.

We had a north of England meet at Ferrybridge, not so long ago. Would have liked to have seen some more convertibles, at least Im not the only Northern Monkey with a convertible(s).!

cheers Gareth.

[billgatese30]

i'm trying to arrange another northern one but no one has been bothered to reply yet...lazy gits

[cabrio327i]

You should have said earlier Gareth that you were coming to York, you could have called round for a look at the car and a coffee mate, let me know next time your allways wellcome. cheers Dave
