parello9 Posted November 14, 2013 Author Posted November 14, 2013 I know everyone hates the BMW badges But i actually kinda like them lol Makes peoples heads turn anyways! Quote
Almeida1234 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Back again I have been waiting a while to get a TS rear diffuser and have been in talks with tarmac for a while and finally the day came when he said it was ready! Thought it would be rude not to get the side steps to so here is what turned up Tarmac side steps Tarmac TS style rear diffuser Very happy I managed to get the side skirts on my self with a hand and here they are Then it came to fitting the diffuser which i didnt have a clue to fit but does come with a good guide so gave it to my trusted garage 1st pic on the floor Then a day later Gave it a Wax and got some not bad pics I luv it! but i think it is still on of those marmite mods and i need a few other mods to pull it off better but its all good for now Think im going to have the splitter partly black too so it all matches up well Stay tuned for some dslr high quality pics soon Nice Quote

gsexr Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Yeah keep the wheels silver as it`s a bit more classy but get some better badges for them. Quote
parello9 Posted November 15, 2013 Author Posted November 15, 2013 Loool! The funny thing is i actually thought about that well on the sides under the indicator lol!.. Dont i think people would really hate then haha! Quote
mattross1313 Posted November 15, 2013 Posted November 15, 2013 Looking nice mate!! I was VERY close to buying a set of these wheels for my Zed too. But the initial costs were too much for me. Look awesome though. However, you defo need to get it slammed. I've not long fitted Eibach springs as I couldn't justify Coilovers, and the drop is more than I expected. Maybe do this? and also get some beefy tyres on the rear And please don't paint the wheels white. And whats wrong with White wheels?!! Quote

Actually, why not go the other way and replace to Nissan badges with BMW ones The car is Nissan, the wheels are BMW. I don't get what the deal is about the badges on the wheels... They are BMW wheels after all. Not that I could care any less what people think, I say keep the badges Parello. Quote

Thanks guys.. i was so tempted by the rota grid drifts in white but then sided with these cause they look epic! you should have bought some! Ima check out your springs to as i was thinking this Also yeh i agree i kinda like the BMW badges and plus they dont look like there missing a center cap or anything then There's only about 3 of us in the BMW club on here anyways Edited November 15, 2013 by parello9 Quote
parello9 Posted December 4, 2013 Author Posted December 4, 2013 Okay update that alot of people wont like lol! Been meaning to get new BMW center caps for a while and i dont like having them plain as i tried that too so i got these Look all good thought it would be fine... They went on fine bought spun around abit in the wheels Thought it would be fine, went out for a drive and came back to find i was already missing one! So took them all off and was deciding what to do.. thought about glue but didnt really wana do that so i came up with this simple idea took the badge off split them into pieces took out the bmw badge got the new badge and broke the tabs off which was risky as i didnt know if it would work out as i planned then simply fitted it to the outside ring with some sealant left to dry Then wola New vs Old New badges but still using the original fitting from the previous caps So a simple job took a little longer but finally done but still need to get the last one now as i lost it while driving as said! Gave it a clean after Looks like i gave the ground a clean too And as i already stated i like the BMW caps deal with it lol! Quote
mattross1313 Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 Fresh badges look better mate. It's your car so ignore the haters! I really wish I fitted these wheels to mine now, look so good on Azure Quote
buster Posted December 4, 2013 Posted December 4, 2013 looking good m8 but really need a bigger rear tyre profile to fill the arch gap. Quote

davey_83 Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 Zed looks real nice, oddly i love the wheels too Quote
GT4 Zed Posted January 21, 2014 Posted January 21, 2014 I like the black eyebrows. Works surprisingly well. You zed looks ace overall and even better in flesh but I still think the BMW center aps should go😜 1 Quote
parello9 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 Sticker fits nicely up there it does indeed but its ripped abit already Zed looks real nice, oddly i love the wheels too thanks man.. they are might fine haha I like the black eyebrows. Works surprisingly well. You zed looks ace overall and even better in flesh but I still think the BMW center aps should go😜 yeh ive grown to them now i dont know what i would replace the badges with maybe borbet cause thats who makes them Okay anyways guys im unsure on what to do as i want to change the colour of the wheels as the rear 2 have a few light kurb marks Im thinking white or cosmic blue as these wheels have such a big face it could work more thinking white though Quote
mattross1313 Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 As i think we spoke ages ago, i was close to buying these wheels too and they were going white....no questions!! Quote
parello9 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 yeh i am swaying more for white as it will brighten the whole car up i feel Quote
parello9 Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 You need more lows! i know i know.. i need it to be practical though lol Quote
