nice color, have you thought about upgrading the wheels to some aftermarket ones perhaps,it would set off the car a great deal, i'll post some of mine in the next three weeks after my vacation.

:thumbsup:
 
Nice :)

I'm actually a big fan of that wheel design - it's just a shame they don't make them in a 18" size and not 17" :(

I'd be interested to see more pics of your headunit/surround. I'm happy with the standard BMW one most of the time but the lack of MP3 disc compatability is starting to hack me off!
 
Very nice car :)

Am I right in thinking you've lost the functionality of the steering wheel controls by removing the BMW head unit?

I have at the moment, Alpine do a harness that should give me it back, I just havn't got round to getting one yet, need to try one before I buy it as Alpine are unsure whether it will work on an 04 car although they know it work's on an 05 car.
 
Very nice and a good location for the shots :thumbsup:
I see you are starting to make mods fromt he CF badges to the caliper colour, stubby and so on.

You need to get those amber sides to clear. Not seen those rims in 17" on a Sterling before. No suprise I prefer 108's :roll:
 
The location is about 5 mins down the road from where we live, being in the middle of nowhere does have some advantages, have started with some simple mods a few more in mind as money frees itself up, you did well to spot the caliper colour in those pics you can only just see them, I'm not sure about changing the amber sides without changing out all the other amber which is just too expensive to justify unless I can find some 2nd hand units somewhere.
 
Got my new wheels today and thoguht I'd try and get a couple of pictures before it starts rainging (again)

I LOVE those wheels.... just fantastic. I'm also envious of the white light clusters etc... I wish I could let myself spend on some for mine!! lol
 
wheels look massive in some pics :thumbsup: im tempted to change mine but keep bottling it, always have something else to buy first!
 
Like the wheels a lot.... details details please, cost ? supplier? . Also, where did you manage to find the side repeaters? did you spend the fortune that BMW want for a pair? Its looking good
 
Looks fantastic - definitely better with those standard wheels off! (And I don't say that often!)

They are staggered fitment 19" VMR V710's finished in Hyper Silver, They were £1550 including tyres & delivery, I got them from here http://www.designerwheels.co.uk/ they took about 6 weeks to turn up problems with the US supplier, the clear lights were a kit off the German Ebay site it included the 3rd Brake light, Side repeaters, and Tail Lights and new roundells for the side repeaters I did spend more than I wanted both sides to be the same so bought a 3rd clear light through BMW UK for almost the cost of the kit.
