.... For the first time in a long time I got my hands dirty working on my car again! With help from robin decided it was time to fit my h&r lowering springs and bmw performance brake kit to my e91.
After spending most of the day in the garage yesterday I now feel like an old man!

Corsanut, do you mean the ///m off the wheels or just my lack of respect to the ///m following by not putting an ///m in the thread title? Have I made up for it now by putting 4 ///m's in my reply?
Gav, it does look low in the pic but my drive slopes down so it looks lower than it actually is! Sits just right

Worst pic ever!
I need another BMW, didn't really fit in to the surroundings in the Insignia.
Still impressed with the brakes, awesome kit.

Your callipers would look good the same colour as your car Ben, looks very 'pearlescent' silver in your pic there?

i did think that, but i want the wheels the same or a similar colour to the car, so might be a bit boring all grey.
the colour is a pearlescent iirc.

Really like the wheels in black! I'd say keep them like that with body coloured callipers
Is there anyway of getting rid of the orange in the headlamps?
