Score!!! PS.... how do you take off the center cap :D

Looks good, be careful when you pop them out....they are plastic:)
Where did you get the wheels?

Center cap just pops off with a screwdriver.

Didn't think it would be quite that easy! Thanks :)

I know there are clips behind the strip to hook them on, but it's disconnected in the middle, it seems like I have to take the whole thing off to get it back on.
If you are talking about the euro bumpers there are 4 bolts holding it on, both front and back on mine....
Even leaving the car even for 30 minutes? Hahah.... I'm always worried about that. I took off the caps for my stock 14" bbs because I'm paranoid. I will take mine off if I take it somewhere and have to leave it for awhile, don't want to find them, much less pay for another set:)

I have Mtech springs so mine's sitting lower already.. going from 14">16" wheels will give it a different look for sure.

16" will make a major change in the car!:)

Questions - is it easy to take off and put on the bumper? What about that rubber strip in the center of the metal piece.

Do you worry about people stealing your center caps

I'm jealous of your bumpers. I need Levent to hook me up with a set soon......

Also what are you specs for tire size / drop if any :P

man i can't wait to get parts hah

Very easy to get the bumpers off. The rubber strip can be a problem to get on, just have to do some adjusting and practice getting it on correctly.
If I am going to leave the car somewhere, which will not happen, then I would have to take the caps off. Losing one would be expensive!!:)
tires are 205/50/16, just what came on the car according to the paperwork I have about the car's history over in Germany. Drop is about 1 1/2 inches with hartge springs, but I am not sure about that. I do not have a regular e30 to measure against. Seems like it is lower than stock, but that might just be the wheel/tire size filling in the gap.

Well got the rear valance on and the rear bumper back on. Still have to make some adjustments, because the passenger side is a little off; maybe 1/2 inch:)
Looks better in my opinion....oh would look better with the hartge exhaust tip:)
