    Hotness. I love the RD wheels. They need new RD emblems in the centers, they look so bare without them!

    I love the late-style 318i bagde, that looks good. Fred Kim has a slant 325 badge on his car.

      Burn your front seats.

      You know a nice set of SRD's, or even black SRD knock-off's would do wonders for your car.

      Wheels/sideskirts/lip look nice Adam. Its sure come a long way since you bought it 5+ years ago!

          Sweet dude! TRS'?

          Very cool, no matter what you put in. Do you still have the custom audio setup in the trunk?

            sweet ride man. do you happen to have any straight on side shots? i have the same wheels and i'm still deciding if i want to use them or not. i also have the same skirts, so your car would give me a pretty good idea.

            thanks

                    Your car is so sick, but a few things bother me. The purple tint and interior mainly. The seats and wood steering wheel have to go. Not a big fan of the steering wheel but I can appreciate it.

                    I like the screen in the sunglass holder area though. I've always wanted to do that. Got any more pictures or information on that? How is the visibility?

                      Second TJ's thoughts. Im a fan of the wood when its complimented by a steering wheel (aka Scotts cabby) but if its just one or the other it looks out of place. Love the wheels, and despite what everyone says, the seats are at least comfortable and hold you in snug.

                        The visability is really good, very bright at night. I will have to dig up some old pics from when I did the install. May have to scan them up.

                        I agree with you on a few things being out of place, the wooden knob is from my first car (325e). Kinda hung onto it since then. One day it will depart, till then.. maybe Scott wants a Nardi Torino know to go with his yacht steering wheel.

                        The seats are on there way out, I have a new set i will be putting in soon.
                        I will show pics when I get them in.

                        I switched interiors from tan to black. The only catch, no black front seats. So either put the tan sport seats in or run these ricey sport seats that are rather comfortable and supportive.

                        The steering wheel is much better than an airbag wheel, I know it doesnt match but I love it anyway.

                        The tint only appears purple in the pics, does not look purple in person.

                        As far as future plans go;
                        -new subframe and trailing arm bushings,
                        -fully adjustable camber up front and rear.
                        -Strut brace.
                        -Remove my damn bumper so I can put my Breyton rear valance on.
                        -Larger more efficiant radiator
                        -Custom Carbon Engine covers and panels. May cover the roof in carbon fiber at some point. (my brother and I make carbon parts on the side)
                        -custom carbon splitter
                        -S50 Cams, full stainless exhaust/headers.
                        -may go FI. Still playing with the idea and saving for a wedding at the same
                        time.
                        -TRACK TIME!!!!!
                        -AUTOX
