    Liek zees?

    I do have clears and black kidneys now, but I don't have any pictures of it yet, so thats why the clears are chopped. This is what I plan to do eventually, once I get some money for the right paint.



    Original.



    E38 weaves are in the plans for summer, if I can make enough to buy books and car shits.

    I see these going for 200-300 ALL the time and you wont believe what I traded those for.. I just saw a mint set of 17x8.5 +13s going for 300 with tires...
    What are those and where are you seeing them sold for that much? I'd probably buy a set of those if I found a deal like that.

    Get a set of 16x8 style 5's. The one that come on the 7 series' I think? They're pretty cheap and look good... And I think they are like 20 or 22 offset.






    I wish I could run those. Fucking m3 brakes >:O

    Paint your lowers like drAK did, then paint the wheels lime green or something outrageous like orange

    get some of the truck bed liner stuff and re paint your lowers. i think it looks better with the lowers textured instead of color matched but it is your car so do what makes you happy, not everyone else.

    The only problem I have with painting the lowers is that I would need to buy some actual Lagunagrun paint, to paint the upper part of the bumpers. Since mine is a '92, the whole damn bumper is that faded gray shit

    Dooo eeeeet, but with blacked out lowerz + blacked out fogs plz.

    Srsly, go with black lowerz if you paint them.

    That color coded does NOT look good.

    And you KNOW what kinda difference the black will make if you remember my old sedan:

    Stock, faded grey:



    Freshly painted lowers:







    Was a difference like day and night.


    DO IT!

    Thats the plan

    In reference to the wheels, like other have mentioned, I'd leave them as-is and wait for something you can afford to come up on Craigslist.
    Any pictures of that?
