Even though not technically correct for an '88, a set of D90s or cups on that car would really add to its sales appeal IMO.

Thanks for your comments J.P.,
I just put 4 new BFG tires and PCed standard wheels on ,
the black wheel look is something you have to like,
so far I like it enough to not change it.
I would consider some D90s or cups

I got extra cup IIs, 11" carrera IIIs, and CS wheels if you are interested.

Roger has a set here:

Also I like the look of a spoiler delete on an S4 rear.

Great work Stan! If it were my car I'd name it The Black and Tan

I run those BFG's on my C140, they get noisy after they begin to wear, but are great in the rain.

Got the car back from the PDR all the hail dents are gone,
its incredible plus they did a paint detail and the original paint is spectacular .

Got a fresh respray on the front bumper so all the paint is glistening,
the PCd waxed wheels pop,
and the spoiler is back on but it blends in.
New Belly pans fitted, leather treated to honey treatment,
Pictures to follow, this machine may go to BaT

auction price is slowly inching up,
I hope it meets reserve and more!
Someone will get a really nice 928
The more of these cars that I fix,
the more I realize how terrific these cars perform when they are right.
This one is one of those cars

I have seen the new owner driving this car at 2 consecutive Frenzy events,
still looks like the day I sold it, Fresh.
