gaz-777 Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Ok cool, what offsets and widths mate? Are you using spacers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melv1958 Posted August 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 No spacers mate, fronts are 8.5j Et 40 and rears are 9.5j Et40, fronts 225/35/19 and rear 235/35/19 and no scraping at all, very close to arch but no scrape, a 245 will scrape for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz-777 Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 Thanks for the info bud, I have 245 on my rear at the minute but have some 235 nankangs to go on and then swapping out my 5mm spacer for a 12mm spacer. Then swapping out my 235 falkens on the fronts for some 225 nankangs/khumo's with a 5mm spacer. If your happy with your khumo's I might get those for the fronts over nankangs.

Melv1958 Posted August 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Just a few pictures guys and also fitted a small front number plate, each to their own, I really like it. Splitters to go on soon And Finally !!!!! Got the part number to revert back to single din, so went to the dealers and purchased a new sunglasses case and new ashtray part. Hope you all like.

marc l Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Cheers I think I'll be getting that next. Tidys up the interior a bit was that off cotsworld BMW? They are a great car for little money! And I think most people would look at them and expect them to cost more, especially a facelift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melv1958 Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Deffo worth it mate as if you love ur car and it's prestine then it should remain prestine imo and nothing worse than a junked up interior, well worth the money bud B0B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melv1958 Posted August 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 It is mate, imo it's shows attention to detail and care Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B0B Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 I've nearly got my inside how I want to, bought some new trims and stuff. The next purchase for the cabin will probably be two new seat backs as they are scuffed up a bit. Melv1958 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickyZ Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Damo the switch surround you bought is the wrong one if that is a picture of it That has the larger individual switches from the earlier E46s, you would need the later one with the switches in a row See below: Old: New: Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay. Posted August 17, 2015 Report Share Posted August 17, 2015 Nah Ricky, Damo's got the correct one, his is 18mm and the one you've posted is a 16mm one, the 18mm were fitted even in 2005 cars with just the DSC button & nothing else.Looking good Damo!

Melv1958 Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) Update guys Took a trip down to Darren's house aka "Dsport" and he fitted me my angel lights and Hid lights and also dechromed my inner headlight indicator surround and also dechromed the front rings. He also fitted my brothers m3 angel lights. Can't reccomend him enough to fit the angel lights, knew his stuff!
