    Next Mod

    Hi Guys
    As u know, I have a 2006 E85 2.5i. I want to get an idea of my next mod. I have about AED5k to spend so I was thinking about 18" CSL replica wheels (8.5") from ModBargains.com (or somewhere local) or Eisenmann rear muffler.

    I am torn: the sound is nice, but could be louder, and the stock wheels are ok, but I am looking to replace the runflats so might as well swap out the rims also to get a better look.

    Unless someone has any better ideas, which one should I get?:please:


    Think before you act.

    I personally love the csl rims from modbargains! i got a nice 19" set! 19X10 for the back, more concave that is! I think they are excellent value for money!
    I would go for 19" if they fit well!
    Other than that, i think an exhaust would be a nice mod!
    If thats ur car in the sig, then its a very classy color and look. I would say csl rims and a not so loud exhaust.

    Good luck!

      Replica instead of original rings - not a good idea. Sound system could be upgraded but its not that simple as replacing units.

      Possibly you could do is IPOD Integration if its not already done.

      Just a thought ! ! !

          the proper CSL replica rims are of really good quality, don't go for unknown replica brands :)

                  check this web site ..www.rimstyle.com
                  and in my opinion..keep the rims and go for Eisenmann rear muffler.

                      Comfort shhhmumfort! lolll I've never felt a difference between 18" and 19". I see Bruno also mentioned a headache from 19" Why????

                      I think they look great and the ride is still comfortable :)

                      Well, i guess its cause i'm the type that sacrifices comfort for looks! hehe always have! u guys should have seen how low my supra was! lolll i could barely get into any mall, parkings, etc! but i looooooooved it!

                        thanks for the comments.
                        Yes LSB, that is my ride.
                        at the moment i have minor mods so i wanted to get one big thing. Anyway, current minor mods are:
                        -LeatherZ Armrest package (doors and centre)
                        -Roadster Solutions Windblocker
                        -Headlight Armour Blue Headlight tint
                        -Bimmian Xenon Interior Lighting Kit (nice!)
                        -8000K Xenon Bulbs from Bimmian (not fitted)
                        -K&N replacement panel filter
                        -Chrome door pins

                        Still torn. Maybe just nothing and wait for an M....

                          8000K is blueish... more like these accords with aftermarket HIDs :drool:

                          you need 6k or 7K max to for a clean look that's MHO though
