Awesome!  Love the Simmons and the interior!  Are they (similar to Jake's) original Recaro's retrimmed in black leather?  It looks mint as... Very nice and clean E30 318iS

Thanks again for the kinds words.

Wheels are Simmons FR18's. See http://www.simmonswheel.com.au. They are made to order in Sydney.

The seats are actually the standard Recaro's out of a near new Proton Satria GTi. I had the trimmer change the design to look more like the original BMW design from the 325is. The rear seat has been reshaped to M3 spec, but also with headrests added. I stole those from the binned front seats. Just got an oem mounting kit to install them.

The paint is the original Brilliantrot. The car only has 120,000 kms on it so most of it is in mint condition. Anything dodgy has been replaced with oem parts, down to rubbers and door seals. I wax it a lot and rarely drive it .. haha!

The wheel is a 320mm Momo Jet Carbon. Sorry to say the headlight covers haven't been made for years. Managed to pick these up second hand on an aussie forum and bring them back to life with some meguiars polish. One has a small crack unfortunately though.
