put the reps back on imho but hey its your car so as you wish o.e.m is ok but certain styling sometimes needs abit of size or bling, you should go 16s with a dish still o.e.mish lol good luck with it

That's a nice looking car,
Very much liking the colour,
I think I'd try it with BBS's on one side & the Alpina reps on the other (parked up) then keep looking to decide which I prefer,
:D

The pina's needed refurbing and 2 tyres - i got the bbs' for the same price as i sold the alpinas for so im not out of pocket - Gonna be looking for Lenso's later on or 17" bbs off the e39 with adaptors but want to get a new hood, leather redone, and possible 2.5 conversion first - there is a method to my madness - mwha haa haa haa!!

And again.

The best place for BK reps is on a weighbridge.

What needs sorting out with the roof?
roof has lots of holes and screen is ripped too - everytime one comes up its sold before i can make an offer :(

im liking the dare alloys (bbs reps) ans also the borbet b's ive seen elsewhere on the zone - need to get roof sorted then leather then engine etc but need e36 cab selling first so i can release some cash!

anyone interested??? lol

Exhaust isn't on and neither is power steering - should hopefully do this by next weekend, I've not seen your car either even though you are local!!
