Man, those rims look hot! I love the car. A few things I don't care for all the extremely dull tails (you should get another set of stock tails, and paint JUST the corner, and clear coat it). I think smoked tails would make the rear end too much of a blob, but its hard to tell. I also think the plate behind the front bumper ruins the look of the bumper, you should ditch the euro plate and mount the normal plate up there. Who needs 3 license plates?
My thoughts exactly on the tails. The right one gets condensation and looked darker than the other when I painted just the corners, that's why I painted the whole thing. About the front tag, cops in my area are pretty slack on the front tags around here, usually only pulling you for it if it's late and they are looking for an excuse to give a sobriety check. I had only zip tied it on there for the weekend because with it being a huge dub show alot of people had eurotags and the cops saw it as a was to make some quick money for the town of OC. I figure i'd sacrifice looking good to avoid a $55 ticket.
It would be cheaper to find the real Breyton kit, it's the exact same kit, BMP just copied it.
Don't spread misinformation through your own personal ignorance.
First off and most importantly the Breyton kit does not replace the bumpers. It bolts over the existing valances front and rear under the stock plastic bumper.
The Breyton front apron has a single slotted inlet for the oil cooler, not the massive gaping hole the BMP bumper cover has.
The Breyton front uses stock e30 foglamps and brake ducts. The BMP is a bumper cover/apron as one, and uses e36 foglamps.
The Breyton rear apron doesn't have an extention under the exhuast pipes like the BMP rear bumper cover does.
The Breyton rear apron has a cutout and removable plug to cover and allow access to the stock tow hook. The BMP bumper cover completely blocks access to it.
I could go on, but I think I've driven the point home.
Here is a fine example of a Breyton car.
