    Looks good in that dirtye30 sorta way. I like the wheels, what are they?

    New bumpers will def. be an improvement.

        I think you're right, just sans caps.

          Hey Bobby, I found out they arent actually real. They are a copy that a reputable wheel company made a while back. They are popular in Europe.

          Keep the US bumpers, that way you will have some cushion when hitting retaining walls. :)

                They are not real alpina they are MSW made a long time ago and people say they are made with the same quality as real alpinas.

                Ryan i think that the plastic ones held up better then those metal ones. I also do hate the way the older ones look.

                              I have no idea they came off my buddies Euro Eta. I hear that they are rare and they did not make very many of them.
