i liked the first wheels like in your signature,
the wheels need to be something different, not the normal compomotives etc. most people fit on here as the car isn't normal.
the dish of the originals worked well with the big arches.

Twins: I know how those look but I found 17" OZs in Romania and I'm going for them on Sunday. It will be about 600km trip for them and next 600km back home but I want them.

Fraser: I like Keskin KT1 wheels too but It weights more then OZs and It's stupid to have 235mm wide tyres on rear on FWD car. My mate will use them for his V6 cosworth powered Capri.

17" OZ Rally mags.. Now It looks better I think.

If that had factory OE lights all round it would be outstanding! Still, nice as it is! Would just prefer the original lights.

neverending story with my brake setup

and Im thinking about putting original lights back but... like Twins has white andicators all around or used dark lights like his track car and dark front indicators and put the headlights in black? remove the glass and paint the metal around the parabolas in black?

I would like to paint the wheels in some dark color like carbon dark grey and white for the car? What do you think about the lights?

I think ALFA ROMEO 33 or Peugeot 405 MI16 rear lights would be a better fit than those e30 ones.
Couldn't find any better ones..

Hi folks.. I'm still working on the car but It goes really slowly. Last project was my own short shifting system so I spent some hours in garage by measuring of original system and inventing of rebuilding of it.
The reason is:

After it I had made all of parts. Housing of shifter printed from ABS plastic, black zinc coated stick shift and rod, polished alloy gear knob..

And here is the complete shifter:
