Not yet all the way done but this is as far as i could get it before my road trip to st. louis.
I got the car 2 mos. ago and had it tore down and repainted it has a bunch of little stuff to finish but I am happy so far.

TIM 325I · 12-29-2005, 10:48 PM

THANKS!!
i waited soo long to get this car on the road
and sombody said chrome rims on a bimmer was ugly lol

nice , and dont get chrome rims, chrome stays on 26" SUV rims, not bimmers. BMW's have to have the german appeal.

painted moldings may be a personal preference, but some colors really just look better with unpainted moldings, i like the unpainted moldings on that shade of blue, looks great! and the chrome wheels are just a bad idea, stick with an alloy appearance like the once you have now (same as mine, lol). but the car looks great man!

what do you have planned next for the ride?

you're right, they actually do look chrome now that i look at them closer, lol. did any of them come this way or were they painted chrome?

Nice. where in stl you going?w hat for? i live in midtown

4evrwyntr · 12-31-2005, 08:41 AM

I bet they were painted chrome... Actually, they look different when I look closer, could be real chrome.
They actually work well with the polish of the car, but it's not my thing.

Personally, I want the 17-18" low profile 5-spokes silver on black...

jllphan · 12-31-2005, 10:38 AM

I like that blue, looks good.

I'd agree those oem wheels look chromed....not a fan. A nice polished 17" wheel wouldn't require any additional mods to accomidate, and would set that new paint off IMHO.
