Calling all basketweave rollers...need input for MOD

[N2MYE30]

So I saw some people rolling with what I thought were BBS RS's with flush mounted caps. I thought they were looking good so I tried it with my euroweaves (it may apply to 14"'ers too).

I took the cap apart. I removed the screw part from the cap and took the roundel apart aswell. I put the roundel onto what was left of the cap and it fit perfectly...very odd. I got the look I wanted but I am stuck on how to mount it to the wheel since the screw part held it to the wheel. I have a couple of ideas but was wondering if anybody else knows a better way.

Oh, and also how do you think it looks?

Before:

After:

not worth the hassle imho

Looks good.
You need the cap for functionality though.

See, thats the thing. I was wondering if anybody has an idea or knows how this can work. I know that the usual way of tightening is prolly out of the question. Maybe a small set screw or some how using the inside lip of the wheels as leverage for a bracket. Of course, I want this functional as well.

The only way would be by having it installed by screwing it and detaching it by unscrewing. If thats the way you go don't half ass it by using wood screws lol. Looks nice though.

I don't think it looks very good.

I love it. Sorry I can't be of help with the mounting of it but it looks clean.

Before looks better IMHO.

[N2MYE30]

Im really half and half on the looks but it would look different. Im more a purist as you can see from my car but its not too outside the classic look of an E30..imho.

C'mon, someones gotta have a good idea or dirrection on how this can work.

I think it looks good, but installation is a whole nother issue

[StrokedSix]
