    Everything works here. The fans are super cool touch.
    Also, I think 15's are just fine on the mt2's.
    After all, they came with them from the factory ;)

      Looking good as usual. One of the best things I like about these cars is the OBC. It's often taken for granted these days but it was cutting edge back in the day and still very cool today.

        I think you're right actually. It's just the dark centers that make them look smaller I think.

          I liked the old wheels more than the BBS's... but please tell us more about the "hubcaps", I never heard of those...

            He is being facetious, they are actually turbofans:

              Thanks for the compliments guys. Prior to the mounting the RS001s, I had slowly been bringing the sedan back to a more oem-plus appearance. I replaced the smoked MHWs with a clean set of amber tail lights, the smoked Hellas with a nice set of non-smiley euro ellipsoids, and the smoked Hella blinkers for a set of clear blinkers. I also swapped out the Hella/Momo steering wheel for a 370mm mtech II. I even have a clean set of euroweaves that are going on soon. The goal is make it look like and drive like a non-modified car, especially since it's my daily.

              But yeah, the BBS RS001s and turbo fans were just too sweet to pass up, so I'll roll on them for special occassions and maybe even throw the smoked lights back on once in a while.

                and back to stock




                I scored another BMW Traffic Pro radio. This one is a 4773 and has independent bass control. So I need to connect another RCA cable to my 5-channel amp in order to take advantage of this feature.

                    OMG yes. Looks so perfect on Euroweaves. I don't know what it is - but something about an original looking MT2 pkg'd Diamantschwarz 4d.

                    I need to get my 91 318i/4 looking like that.

                      by the way - what type of exhaust/muffler do you have? I noticed the twin-tip.

                        I think Supersprint.
                        And the fans look really unique.

                          Supersprint, but for a M10 318i (the m42 SS is single tip), so I had to used a reducer to fit it.
