Lovely, looks absolutely immaculate. Wheel choice seems a little odd considering the shell is staying so clean and un-fiddled-with in appearance. Fair play to you though, no offence intended One question, although I'm sure I already know the answer... it's still Tornado Red, right? Looks a bit deeper. What paint did you use? Obviously a lot is down to the quality of the work, I know, but it looks awesome
Volk/Rays TE37 Wheels are super strong and only 5kg a rim, they also let me run big brakes without spacers and proper et & 4x100 They are also one of the best wheels on the market now. Few wee links to German cars with the rims to run https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=BMW+Volk+te37&rlz=1C1JUFK_enGB557GB557&espv=210&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=XIr-UrKMG9Dy7AbZnIHoAQ&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1440&bih=775 https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=BMW+Volk+te37&rlz=1C1JUFK_enGB557GB557&espv=210&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=XIr-UrKMG9Dy7AbZnIHoAQ&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1440&bih=775#q=911+Volk+te37&tbm=isch https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=BMW+Volk+te37&rlz=1C1JUFK_enGB557GB557&espv=210&es_sm=93&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=XIr-UrKMG9Dy7AbZnIHoAQ&ved=0CC0QsAQ&biw=1440&bih=775#q=Volkswagen+Volk+te37&tbm=isch My car Every one and its dog runs old heavy wrong et, square BBS wheels which won't run my brakes which are a must The paint is the right colour LY3d 2 pack its just the light
