Picked these up from Levent (thanks L!), and popped `em on today.

Yep, no doubt there! Within the next 4 weeks, I'll be ordering from Guten Parts a set of Billstein Sports & (most likely) H&R sport springs. Also ordering every rubber bushing for front & rear suspension, as well as the Swaybarbarian kit.
She's got a looong way to go, my little sedan, but we're off to a nice start!‘Tis by the grace of God that my cars run!Originally posted by LJ851

Si, senor! But, not for long! I have assembled almost everything to do the '327i' swap.Is your sedan a super-Eta?
Also those look like the RX's Matt (mr325) had for sale in Cali.
I'm pretty sure that's where Levent got the RX wheels! I'm going to strip them down, because, well, they're GOLD, and second, the powder coat job has a fair bit of orange peel. I'm going to see how they look after I get them media blasted, and see how much refurbing I have to do. Just going for a nice shiny silver (Not Chrome!).‘Tis by the grace of God that my cars run!Originally posted by LJ851

Definitely my old wheels and spacers. Looks good! Too bad you don't like the gold. Haha.Comment

Gold worked great on a white car, just not feeling it on the Schwartz! My wife now calls my car 'Sheba!'

Not bad, I'm with you.. I don't know how I feel about the black with gold. Can't wait to see it dropped. Also I'd removed the pinstripe since it doesn't look in the best shape. I removed mine with some adhesive remover and a razor blade.

If all my trim was blacked out, I might. But I feel like the gold clashes with the chrome.I vote to leave them gold, I think they look great on black.
Yeah, the paint's pretty roached in general. I am on the fence about what to do about that. Part of me wants to use this car as a chance to learn to do bodywork, buy a compressor and learn to paint. The pinstripe will definitely not be staying, regardless! Looking forward to seeing your car at a Missouri meet soon!Not bad, I'm with you.. I don't know how I feel about the black with gold.

Hah! Think I'll be hanging on to them for a while, but I'm glad you like `em!Paint them...

Hey I'm in KC as well. Any chance you would let me test fit one of those wheels on my car? I was thinking about those wheels and would like to see one on my car. My car is lowered on pretty much the same suspension setup you want.
I could do you a favor, you could do me a favor!
If interested, send me a PMDare 2 Dream Motorsports
