In the beginning of his thread he mentioned that he had them re drilled and when getting them installed he got a hub centric adapter to fit the GS hub. Like this one below for an example:


On my GS I am running a full adapter setup that has the hub as part of the adapter. I didn't want to re drill them in case I want to sell them I can sell the to BMW owners anyone that wants the adapters I have when I end up selling them.

Example below:

sorry guys.. been super busy at work trying to get a raise.. anyways to answer the questions

the wheels: i had them redrilled from 5x120 to 5x114.3 . i thought of using adapters but i would need to add a hole bunch of camber to fit them. again this is a daily and i am not planning to run camber to wear my tires..

as for exhaust,, it was custom made by a member and i had a buddy weld it up for me..

Nice. Regarding the roof color change: Since you didn't remove the sun roof, do you see remnants of the green around the inner portions of the sunroof?

You don't have to pull the sunroof out just slide it back all the way open at that point your able to get paint on all the areas that was green.

I did not pull out the sunroof.. just slid it all the way back leaving more than enough space to tape off allowing me to get to the inside edges.. there is not green shown when the sunroof is open, looks factory. sorry i havent updated in a while.. i will post some updates soon
