Very nice iS:D Looks so clean! Not a huge fan of the E36 wheels..but even so! Is the 1.9 M44 a simple change to do? I would imagine the two engines are very similar.

E36 rims suck i know but bent one of the X spoke's so they were a temp thing, Ԛ£100 from a mate, 1 new tyre, 3 good one's so not a bad deal.

Will get the real rims back on when the all recon as tryin to get it back to show room condition .. :)
