And for centercaps, not talking about the whole centercap that covers the lugs, just replace the BMW sticker with a BBS centercap.

e38 basket weave caps fit
e34 mesh caps fit (what i have)
e36 15'' mesh wheel caps fit
probly many more but all these are plastic
as for rs bolts, ive heard people use them and others say they are not safe to run on style 5's. Theres a small difference in them, style 5 bolts are splined and rs' arent iirc...couldnt swear to it tho. Black forest industries carries them in all finishes for like 1$ a boltLast edited by Devo; 06-20-2011, 04:54 PM.

If your powdercoater is knowledgeable and experienced then he can hot flock them to pc them. Otherwise you can try going to a bodyshop to get them color matched.Originally posted by SeanDubBut of all the things you could Jew out on, suspension probably shouldn't be your first pick.
