So my car looks like this...

And I want it to be something close to this...

I've already started removing that flag sticker thing out front. The risers for my LTW wing are retardedly expensive. and other than the wheels, everything else is motor stuff.

What does IA think? :boobies:

Yea I know. I'm wanting some BBS wheels like posted above, or if they are under 1500, I want some staggered Style 5's, like below.

Style 5's look really nice. going all motor or boosting? A local friend has an built turbo'd m3, same bodystyle as yours. Making 536whp.

Anything that is labeled "LTW" is going to be expensive.
I saw this car not too long ago at a meet at Forged and it had a good size scratch along the driver side. You going to get it fixed?

already fixed. It wasn't deep, so a simple wet sand and High speed buff, full detail, you gotta get like an inch away to see it.

I think you'll need to get your car professionally detailed/clay bared etc. to look nearly as good as the paint on that car. You'll also need the brakes, and the kirk rollbar, which is descent (I have one in my car) but if I could go back i'd have TRM build me one. This car is modded which choice/authentic parts, if you try to save money you won't come close

The picture posted of My M was when someone before me owned it. I've done the best I can to get the scratches out with help from a friend who does $700 hand details for Ferrari and Lambo of Atlanta. The front, we didn't even bother becuase that gay flag thingy will have to be sanded off and the front hood, bumper, fenders are so pitted it's best to just get it all repaired and re-sprayed. Leng is looking to be Busy here come the end of summer!

And going from a Civic to this, I know it was going to be more for parts, WAY MORE. Funny thing though, replacement parts are about the same or cheaper for this than an integra/civic. My insurance went down too. Lulz.

I know, man. They'd fit perfectly and still be able to fit fat tires with a good fender roll out back. I've tried to get the guy I sold them to to sell them back, but he wants none of it :(

The 14" & 15" e30 basket weaves were style 5's too.

The 17"/18" 2-piece Style 5's were first available as an option on the e34 and e31 then came standard on the early model e39 sport models. There are no less than 12 different sizes and offsets of the multi-piece style 5 lol! I happened to own the rarest staggered offsets that they were available in, an $8,000 USD option on the Euro 850csi in 1995, and one day I'll own another set!

For budget baller go with a staggered set of BMW Style 32...painted black.

Linea Corsa LM replicas would be my first choice for aftermarket wheels.

Runner up baller would be OZ Mito Modulars.

Baller status would be AC Schnitzer Type I/II 3-piece...
