YES!! I love your E39 man. Never really cared for them before, but I'd love to get my hands on one now. How wide are you going with the 0Z?

Thanks dude!! And at least 18x9 and 18x10, still have to figure specs out though. More will start to happen once I get for winter break and have free time.

Also don't have any pictures yet but I started to wrap the window trim in gloss black vinyl, really looks much better than the plasti dip I had.

From the other night:

That's going to look sick bro. When are you going to start building them. Def looking forward to the new wheels getting on the car. Honestly don't know how I missed this thred. Car is mad dope man I love the color and just how clean and simple it is. Even winter mode is beast mode.

Thanks! and I hope to have most of the work done to them by the end of January, but they will be on the car once spring hits ideally.

And haha there's a lot of threads on here, easy to miss one. And I try to keep it as clean as I can which is hard but worth it, and I love winter mode! I definitely got some weird looks from people driving around in the snow haha. I'm going to lower the front a bit next week too.

Also I'm trying to decide on a color for the centers of the OZ's. I was originally going to do white but I keep having second thoughts, I was thinking a dark silver, not quite gunmetal or maybe just silver. I want to do something more exciting than silver though haha

Hurry up spring! Your def doing a great job at keeping it clean man. I love your E39 and you've got me wanting to go out and pick one up but I've got enough on my hands right now with this X3 and other things going on. lol I can only imagine the looks when they see a slammed snow plow BMW. Thankfully out here in Houston we do not real winters, so we there is no winter mode out here for us. White would def pop and bring your car out with its color and all, although silver would look good but would pretty much look like your setup now.....wouldn't it? Either way it'll look dope but I'd def go with the white. You know what your doing so I'm sure it'll look sick come spring time.

I'm going to try and do a brushed aluminum finish on the centers, hopefully if it turns out nice I'll have the centers clear coated to protect the finish.

Some updated interior shots after putting some titanium trim in, I kept my gloss black center console though:





I'll be sending the centers of the Mitos off to Paul at EW wheel works this coming week so he can get to work figuring out specs and machining the centers for the 3 piece build.

[SoLOwX3]

Interior is a 10 keep it up bro. Looks fresh

[M540fella]

Thanks!

The sockets that I bought to split my wheels apart were supposed to be delivered Monday but I wasn't around to sign for them Hopefully I can get them tomorrow though

[NeilP]

Looks so good on the broadways!

[Jersh]

Digging the trim man. You wanna use your interior wizardry on my headliner? I think it's time to finally fix it.

[99sil-teg]

Looking good so far!

We might have to, I always like doing that kind of stuff!

Here's a little update:
I finally got the sockets I needed to take apart the Mitos so I did that and cleaned up the bolts too. The bolts are in really good shape for the most part, I'm going to work on making them look a bit better in the next week or so though. I'll be sending the centers to Paul at EW Wheel Works in North Carolina on Monday so he can get to work on them.

Sounds good. I'll bring the beer!
