Hey Codfish.... the setup for the red car is H&R springs and stock everything else... The wheels are Rota 15X7 with 205 50 15 dunlops and the flair is actually a patch panel from BMW because of rust. The red is actually brought back from really bad oxidation by Mcguires utimate compound. I hope this helps Happy Motoring !!!!

Sounds like I hear tire rubbing on video 3, or is it something else?

Great idea putting the camera there.

Thank you...What red color (code I guess) is the car ?

What is a " patch panel from bmw"? and has it helped stopped the rubbing with such large wheels ? I ask because I will be wearing a set of Momos 15 x 7 et 25 (same tires as yours) with suspension technique springs. I dont know if its gonna rub, so I'm just trying to think ahead...

Thank you for your assistance...

edit: I watched the 1st video and saw the "patch" you spoke of, I thought it was a different kind of flare, but I guess you rolled the fender ?

Dudley used to have a rotted out wheel well, he cut that out, and used a BMW replacement part. Its not a flare, its just a replacement bit.

Cool... Thank you for your assistance

Do you know what red color (code I guess) is the car ? I want that color I love it.

Do you know if the fenders were "rolled" to compensate for the larger wheels ???

Peace and Thanx

Nice, although I could hardly hear anything, is that just me? I haven't been able to drive an 02 like that in years. I can't wait until mine is done.

It does not have the greatest volume, you really have to crank the volume to hear anything.

Codfish, to the best of my knowledge, Dudley has an original paint job, which when he bought the car was pink. He spent hours working it with *shameless plug* Meguiars Ultimate Compound, which really brought the red back, search back a bit, and you will find some before and after shots of his car. About the rolled fenders, once again I do not believe so, it may be possible that the PO did it for him, but it has not been rolled *check with Dudley, he is back in town today*

Let me know if anyone else is up for a weekend drive....

Best of luck, happy motoring.
