    no, I bought these from my friend.
    Cost me about $1600 to get them refinished.

    I love my wheels
    I do have the centercaps, but I don't like them.

    and yeah, my valence is shot to HELL!
    hood is all sandblasted too

      You bought the wheels then expended $1600 to refinish them? Holy fuck man, thats like more then that car is worth.

      Repaint your freaking window trim, that has been bugging me for over 4 years.

        I was just about to ask about the driver's door window trim. It has 84-87 chrome on it.

          I will say this Windsor, and this is nothing personal. They look a hell of a lot better than yours.

          ahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahah

          wow, that was good, your a funny little boy thats for sure :D
          the diamiter of your rims should never be the size of or bigger then the displacment of your motor.

          your car is okay, his car is okay. its a tie for okay looking cars.

              I'm not a big fan of those wheels either but I've only seen one set of wheels on an e30 that I really thought looked great. I don't even like my wheels or the new ones I have coming :(

              Important thing is they are his wheels on his car and he likes them. We should all spend a little more time building our cars the way we like instead of the way everyone tells us looks good. Might be some ugly ones come out of the bunch, but there might also be something unique that looks great.

              Just remeber when it comes to looks it's all based on opinion. hell there are people out there that think J-Lo looks good!!

                no, I didn't quite word that right at all...
                $1600 included the price of the wheels and tires along with straightening and refinishing.

                and yes, I did build this car the way I like it, so I just read the criticism and take it :D

                I'm gonna try to fix the window trim this year. I'm also gonna install a euro front bumper ASAP along with my Hella Black lights that have been waiting for winter to end.

                  Isn't the euro bumper too short and not gonna fill up the gap (from top to bottom)?

                        yes, the small plastic ones
                        Late bumpers, if you will...

                        In VW Speak 'euro bumpers' just means 'small bumpers'
                        as opposed to the battering rams.
