Hi Colin. Your car looks great on the 224s, very classy. However, I equally like your contemporary black on red 'winter' look also. Nice to be able to change from one to the other. :thumbsup: Much prefer the original 'Blau und Weiß' roundels though. :wink:

Thanks Simon, yeah it was nice peeling off the black and red and getting the OEM BMW roundels back; goes much better with the silver and red.
Got a new pack of red and black decals ready for the winter though :wink:

Cheers fella, hope you're patient cos I'm keeping it forever :D
