Car wash fucked the "edge" of the rim! Used citric acid to clean them! You should only use light soap water when cleaning these babies!
I was attending to a car show in Bergen/Norway... Needed nice rims. Not the fucked ones I had. Sent old wheels for repair estimated price to fix incl. parts: $2222!

He wanted me to keep the "new" wheels, but with golden screws instead of chromed, and maybe a chromed centre.

Very, very nice! Is that the whole M5 side panel or just the gills? I really like the wide width of the M5 front quarter panels (minus the gills) and am comtemplating getting them
Again, your E60 looks fantastic!!!

No offense but why would you stick the M5 grilles on especially-I can see a few of the other things like the front section but if you want an M that badly why dont you get a preowned one. I just think that looks like a total poser when someone tries to make their car look like one that costs twice as much.
I think you could have had a nice clean looking car, with some nice mods But the grill and the rear view mirros? Despite what you say you are obviously trying to fool people into thinking you have an M-otherwise there is NO reason you would get M-side view mirrors-like what is wrong with the stock mirrors for gosh sakes.
Silliness-save your dough bro and get the real ting instead of being a poser
By the way-isnt it embarrasing when you pull up to a real M car or another fast car that knows exactly what the M looks like and how fast is it and they straight out embarrass you. I would feel like a complete fool if a real M pulled up to my car that slapped a bunch of M outer parts on.
