  1. If that's been redone then they have done a nice job pulling the leather up like they did on the original wheels.
  2. Hey I was actually just thinking of selling my one. Get intouch 0274083393 if you like Thanks
  3. Just mint stock ones + 1 spare for sedan
  4. I think I do but not 100% if I find them will give you a call
  5. I don't know about that because branded tyres are not always a lot better, sometimes worse

    My brother & sister in law both just let their regos lapse. I had been asking them are they on hold they keep saying yes but they must have thought that ment not keeping the old one upto date. 2 cars now sitting with dead plates, 1 was a beautiful e34 525i like the one out of the movie with the high speed car chase with Robert de Niro

    Good car how it is. As long as it gets you from a to b in this day & age
  10. I do can you send me photos of fabric as there is several different types
  11. Have owned several sets of 3 piece acs. Personally Its probably easier to get them from somewhere like German ebay or the likes. Probably south east Asia to. There's a bit more tax on that sort of thing now. I might be selling some 2 peice bbs soon. Message me if intersted 0274083393
  12. Hey, would you sell the Miller maf. I can trade you a mint original one with cash your way if you like
  13. Went from 3000, 5000, 8000 grit then finished with aluminum polish. Going to do some others soon
  14. Firstly thanks to Gaz for letting me buy these & Done for picking up and getting them to me. Bit of a progress report Sanded up & delivered to painter today. He's wanting to do an especially good job on them. Hundreds of hours spent on these already sanding & polishing lips. Started with 36 grit paper on the lips & worked all the way down to 2000 wet dry papers then autosole metal polish and 0000 steel wool then alloy polish. May try to get some 3000 & 5000 grit paper if anyone knows if this can be bought in NZ that would be awesome. Bolts stripped back in vinegar, boiled in vinegar and baking soda, fully stripped to a black shiny finish then coated in zinc by Christchurch metal finishers. Better than new ones, will probably last a lifetime. Sanded and polished hex caps and restored old original BBS centre caps with polishing tool, look like new & OG to. Got a spare in the mix, is a nice lightweight 7" rim perfect for the boot, probably fit with a 195 tyre to make it even lighter New tyres have been ordered from hyperdrive after lots of consideration I've decided to go 225/50r16 all round. Had purchased 245/45r16 Nangkang AS-2 (only road tyre available in that size in NZ) but being unsure of Chinese tyres & bit of risk of clearance on M535i I have gone with Laufenn 225/50s instead keeping it closer to original
  15. Hi, the rc090 but would consider the same style especially if there was a chance of finding another the same 038 035 etc
