But you must need some wheels to fill that guard.You dont need to mould it into the body, they screw or rivit on, but ofcourse you could if you wanted, i was thinkng some nice 16" tsw wheels with lots of spokes painted charcole would do the job well, and ofcourse wide tyers, im serously considering it.

Moulded on a street/show car, riveted etc on a race imo [even though not allowed in series] Im going to make you never want to do this... Edit: Damn cant find the pics.

I could imagine a silver e30 with gun metal flares and 16" tsw wheels painted charcole could look tough, hmmmm It had 17" tsw 6 spokes It looked like absolute sh*t.

I Think the pink pearl in the orange brushed on house paint made it look even worse I dont think the colour of the car helps much in its apperance either, and 6 spoke wheels arent the nicest, i was thinking of some like 16" baskets, and tsw make sum nice wheels lik dat.
