    Coke Bottles on a white e30

    Is there anyway to make the coke bottle wheels actually look good on an e30? Especially a white e30? I've seen some folks paint their wheels to match the paint of their cars, but don't think it'd work well on a white one.

    Thoughts? Pics?

    lower your car, get some euro bumpers and it might look better with the B-caps

        agreed, the best thing you can do is lower your car and worry about wheels later. get them as clean as you can and use them until you can afford something decent. concentrate on suspension and new bushings if needed.

          I have two B-caps that are painted gunmetal and they looked a lot better.

                  Well , being the proud owner of four (bottlecaps) i say to make them more sexy replace the old chrome centers with new ones and also replace the bimmer roundel in the center, clean 'um up really good . Then slam the bitch , then they'll look acceptable.:pimp:

                      The ones on the red car are not painted. They are chromed.

                          Neh, I think they are Gunmetal or Anthracite. The chrome ones have a lot more reflection coming off them, and are much lighter/brighter.

                            They are definitely chrome.

                              Definitely NOT chrome is a more valid statement.
