Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
Dunno which I like more. the minilite type or these? Been reading through the hole thred and cant believe how different your car looks since you got it. The paint still looks so fresh to man! How come? Has it had anything done to it? I wanna do the same if it has!!

Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
It was just painted properly in the first place and a good quality paint used. I do wash it weekly though and use a decent wax every 3 months or so. It was actually painted 3 years ago now though, except the front end which is more recent.

Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
Cheers for that. I just can't justify another set of rims right now tho. I'm having enough trouble not investing in an e23!
Swapped steering wheels in an effort to stem my addiction instead.

Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
I went to the MPH show at Earls Court today and watched Top Gear live.
What a load of old shit!
I should have saved the dough and put it towards a 7 series.

Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
Last time I went was 2007; after that I really went off Top Gear in general. My money's better spent down the road at the the annual Erotica show in Olympia...

Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
While I think of it, that new 3 spoke momo wheel is bloody lovely to use. I don't know if its because the leather isn't 30 years old? It's just a pity it looks a bit modern'ish.
Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
yeah but that lass with the nice ass is carrying the new style crappy looking ronal turbos, not the early ones like you have. (and i used to.
)
just what nas said....... if you powder coat them, your an idiot!!

Re: Mark's Tango'd 323i
I'm going with polished lips, black centres and orange where the Ronal lettering is. I met a guy at MPH yesterday, who owns a wheel refurb' company and it turns out he lives a few streets away from me. He's going to do the Ronals and the Alpinas on the TWR if his work turns out to be a good standard. He does it all in the back of a Mercedes van outside your house. Just needs a socket to plug it into.
