Up next will be a new rear shelf with the bass ported into the cabin from the boot, head rests, new gaitors and mirror trimmed in the same material

She'll be getting lowzz in the new year along with some camber

In the new year, gotta get some cash money together to sort that, the re-trim was uber cheap to do

old wheels looked better. lip wise.

I've still got the old wheels, just bought the new ones for messing on

I'll be running the 16s on the back with the dish, and the 15s on the front with muuuuuuch smaller tires, stretched all round

I have a feeling that would look a little off rather than running all 4 old wheels, because they really do look good. I find that staggered diameter usually only looks appropriate on cars that have a lot of forward rake and are going for the power forward look.

i would love to be proven wrong however

car looks like a good buy, good luck!

Pumped to see this.

[TheRev]

OK slight update on this...

So me being a complete and utter tit never put anti-freeze in the rad, and it froze solid which I found out the hard way when I got to work and she was boiling

So the water pump is gone and more than likely I've done the head in too, so after a whopping 10mins of looking I found a 525i complete car going for €300 ($400)

Gonna go look at it hopefully at the end of the week and quite possibly bring it home to swap over the engine, box, shafts, diff, rear subframe etc etc as I already have a welded diff for a 525i

Stay tuned folks

What were the wheels that were on it when you bought it? Were those Rial Meshs by any chance? Specs?

This has got loads of potential!

Ummmm BBS RZ's I think, they have the same spoke pattern as the standard 15" BBS rims but they're 16x8.5s
