Wow, those t-stars have me drooling. Definitely go coverless. One of the best looking wheels on an E28, hands down.

Subscribed. Everything looks great; I especially like the interior. Your wheel choices are sharp too. Keep going and keep providing pics!

Today the car has been finished in terms of suspension.

-45/35 lowering, E34 M5 rims (17x8 front, 17x9 rear)

Image

The interior is the E28 M535i cloth version, because the lack of climate :D

Love that interior! Cloth seems so "exotic" to us in the U.S. :alright:

Oh my, I wish I could have your front seats. I have Anthracite in my 528i but comfort seats. Side pics of your car? I want to see how she sits
