          I dont like them capless because even if they are black you can see they 5-lug casting and Im not sure that looks the best.

            Just finished this a few min ago.
            I am very satisfied with the result, kopis are a somewhat common wheel so it adds a bit of individuality.








            Before paint and with oversized tires:

              oh damn. paint the bottom white or figure a way to install just the lower mtechII skirt and your car would be complete on a looks point. maybe a slight drop, like an inch.

              oh, and the wheels look dope.

                          Looks unfinished IMO, on a early 2002 or a E21 open lug alpinas fit the part but on a E30 not so much. A older euro bumpered one with some good period correct styling would look OK but not on your car which is very nice by the way.

                              Your idea worked out very good. Are you planning on running anything in the center of the center though? Some sort of cap. Maybe you can fit the bottlecap center cap in there with the alpina logo on it or something.

                                I would love to do something like that to cover up then hubs like that five lug wheel i posted. Im going to talk to some people and see what sort of resources will be available.
