It would be interesting to know why you chose to do all that work in the UK and not in the states.
Also, can you tell us who you used for the trim work.

Car looks great by the way.

I am curious too. Absolutely in love with these wheels. Been searching a bit and they do pop up! But there are also the e28s which seem very similar as well!

e26 are available new still from BBS motorsports. Vintage centers pop up from time to time. e28s are for larger diameter wheels.

Thanks. Over the past few years traveling to shows in Europe, Asia and the US I was really impressed by the level of detail and quality in some of the UK cars. Not to mention the European pick up trip sweetened the whole deal.

I used Luke at Plush Automotive (http://www.plush-automotive.co.uk/) for the interior. The bodywork and paint was done by Steve Denton at StyleHaus and the whole thing was reassembled at Milestone71 (http://www.milestone71.com/)

It was hard having the car built where I could only see pictures of it and not go there to check it out every step of the way but I really couldn't be any happier with the results. So no regrets

Cool, thanks for the info:-) So the e26 are 16" up-sized with your barrels?

Rotiform are known for their services in being able to convert a 16' wheel to 17 or 18 inch via the use of different barrels and lips.

Hey, I almost bought that car. Can I get first when you are ready to sell it

On a more likely tip, what kind of finish is that on wheels?

Ha! That's funny, I also inquired on this car a while back and he wasn't ready to let it go just yet...and for good reason I suppose.
He just stopped responding.

Nice work. Love the color and look.

cool car I like. Not to put a downer on things but why did the body shop not paint the front lip as well to match ? kind of looks out when rest of the skirts lowers and rear bumper lowers have all been colour coded. I am sure they have stuff in body shops to prime and paint plastics with elastic type paint.

maybe a front lip spolier/splitter is in the pipe line.

I still like this car lots and would be tempted to buy it if it ever came on the market .

Allready loved it in black. Watched your video on vimeo quite a few times (from when it was black). But now it looks completely of the scale. However, I can imagine, with the euro speed bumps your trip must have had some serious challenges. how did it drive at the Nurburgring, did you like the experience? And did you measure a BTG-time ?

Can you tell me what lights are being used in the original space that the Porsche foglights were?
