    Nice bit of kit.
    All valid points already mentioned, better tires and silver rims and it's set.
    All I have to add is that you really need to correct that paint, major swirls and holograms on that last pic.

      does the kit use the stock bumpers? needs euro trim, all red tails and paint the wheel centers black. and properly sized tires.

        My vote goes for the silver wheels. Car looks great!

          he flared the existing fenders way further than normal without regard to paint, then painted the car. if i was a painter that how i woulda done it.

                It's self painted? No clear-coat? Shouldn't scratch easily if you clean it correctly. Get some microfibre towels and real wash mitts.
                Don't tell me you put it in an auto-wash? :???:

                I'm have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleaning cars... :p

                  I like the size of the tires, fills out well.

                    Disagree. Get proper sized tires on there, I don't know how you're not rubbing! And a serious note on the CSI's, they're worth a decent amount if they're in good condition. They normally came in that gold color you have on the one. They're pretty solid, but a little soft. They're really hard to find in good condition, really rare wheels. Keep them!

                      Oh don't get me wrong, I'd probably swap those out next time I get tires, but I'd keep a large tread pattern, just less sidewall. But there is something to be said about larger sidewall tires on e30's. It can look good I think.

                          The front wheel looks too far back, Other than that Primo!

                                ya definatley, silver is much cleaner looking. I've been on a gold kick for a while, but I think its pretty much faded(atleast with the black for now).
