Looks awesome.
Although it does make me giggle that everyone loves the wheels, & yet they look exactly like Rota's, which everyone hates.

I know that, but do you not think its a slightly daft view to take. They look the same. Only the owner of the wheels knows the difference, & yet is £1500 poorer. Clearly this isnt a car designed to go quickly round corners, so he wont be after the weight saving of going genuine
Just makes me giggle inside thats all.
Emperors new clothes, etc.
In the end I bottled the idea of a bright colour and went for matte bronze. Left the painter with pictures of what I was after, but to be honest I don't think I really like the colour. Too dark and more brown than bronze - not what I had in my head really. I'll give it a few weeks to see if I come round to them but can see me having them painted again.
Fitting them with these...
Photo's fitted to the car coming up.

They look cool, will look better on.
Bronze seems pretty hard too get right on wheels, mine ended up pretty much brown.
Will look awesome once on

That looks fantastic! a real credit to you
Thanks for the nice comments chaps, appreciate it. I wish I liked the colour as much as you lot seem to, still not sold. They look like chocolate. I'll get some more photo's when the weather clears up, I've done a few more little bits and bobs too.
You're spot on mate, been meaning to get round to raising the rear about 5mm for about a week now. I'd have preferred to just lower the front slightly but I'm already scrubbing on the speed bumps at work so the rear needs to come up instead.

That looks stupendous. Truly. Wheels, colour, stance just perfect. Roof down for the pics help though!
Need more!
Noted!
I've had it around 8 months and can count on one hand how many times the roof has been down haha. The fact it's a convertible is my only gripe with it.
F**k me, you're really not messing about! Fantastic work.

People say theyre bad but from my experience not as bad as I thought. For me at 28 they cost the same to insure as a 330d!
Disastra Coupe
It is actually spoke about already if people go back a couple of pages... But anyway - before i ended up with the 330ci i was getting quotes of around £1500 for an s2k iirc (25, 8 years ncb, clean licence). Which imo is f**king ridiculous! I pay half that for the Beemer and i'm being ripped off at that, it's only because i just opted to switch car's on my policy til it's due, then i'll shop around properly.
I do like the s2k's, a lot... But the insurance is madness, i'd have one on the drive by now otherwise.
