Nice rims
Thanks dan!
Just painted my center caps...not perfect, but they look alright
What did you use to hold up your HD lip? Looks suttle, yet nice!
those rims are unique, i really like them.
next you should get eye lids.
yea I really like those rims too....pretty unique for a 3.
Thanks a lot guys! I thought so too. I wasn't too sure if they were going to work with the 3, but Taj made them beautiful, gotta get some new pics with the center caps.
I do want eyelids, but might wait til next year. The HD lip is being held on by double sided tape, and self tapping screws every 3 inches or so, or wherever there was a body line that I wanted it to flow with
To come:
-tints
-aftermarket LED taillights
-cross drilled rotors(once my current brakes need replacing)
and thats about it.
So far my car has
-Eibach prokits
-17" Speedy Sphere rims
-3000k HID fogs
-5000k HID headlights
-ebay yellow bulbs for the high beams
-chrome dipped front turn signals
-2 piece OEM lip w/HD lip
-SR*S exhaust (hks style)
-CS LED Interior kit w/license plate light
-8" Boston Acoustic stealth sub w/amp
Coming in the mail as we speak:
-hub centric rings for my rims
-heated seat DIY kit
...wow, don't realize the money I've put into this car until I list it out like that, yikes

The wheels look like the standard Mini wheels for the non-Sport/Premium cars. They're 15" though.

the 2 piece OEM was bought off ebay painted in Velocity Red. I can try to link you with the seller, he might have it and can paint it in any colour before shipping
look like the old Porsche rims but with a lip, the definately look cool!
New pic for the fall...
I am dreading putting the snowtires on :(

Very nice car:thumbsup Nice wheels but I stil like your GT wheels though IMO.
Car is coming along nicely, bud. Still have that Speed shift knob?
Sure do. Love it! Probably one of my more favourite mods!
thanks again for that!
Thanks! To each his own, right? I got a good price on these rims and they were in rough shape. Taj at metalcoaters hooked me up and I think the uniqueness of the rim alone makes them awesome!Quote:

Got Thule roof racks and made a makeshift license plate holder out of some L brackets and nuts/bolts.

Got an Eonon d5102 for Christmas (yah its been that long since I've been consistently active on this forum)
Made a custom mount for my Samsung Galaxy SII (t989) from an old Garmin GPS mount. Dremelled it up and it fits snug in behind the trim piece, but in front of the useless LCD (it still lights up though! I'll take some night pics tonight). Beauty of this mounting system is the phone is EASILY removable, and the mount itself slides in behind the trim piece so it can be adjusted with ease. It tilts, rotates and slides left to right!
-You can also see my DIY heated seat install beside the Cig-lighter. Hardwired them, and now my ass can be toasty warm at the push of a button! They've been installed for about a year and still work perfect (thanks ebay!)

Mount with phone removed. Going to get a car charger for this phone and hardwire it into the system. That way I can route the micro-usb through the trim panel so there will be no loose cables!
Let me know what you think! The Bluetooth audio feature on the d5102 is great as I don't need a 3.5mm cable anywhere (mind you I do have one run behind the console and through the ashtray. Real stealthy and easy access...but I never use it anyways.
