Prob wont look bad but i would paint the engine bay the same colour just make your mind up and paint the bay yourself if you are going to paint it black you rather paint it the colour of the car will look better.FMH wrote:its got black leathers, black hood, smoke rear and front lights, the wheels will be polished, so any nice colour.

the m5 ones, will be highly polished when i get some time. i do have a few spare sets of style 5's, so if the other ones rub, i'l fit them.F17RAK wrote:U keeping the m5 wheels or style 5?
m5 ones are 8.5j all around, et13. i do have wider rears; 10j but they don't fit.
style 5's are 8j all around, et20, so sit further in.
