Looks really nice. Estoril is a great color. If you figure out how to address the baked in brake dust, please post it. I have that problem on my 1 and would like a solution.

http://forums.carmudgeons.com/showthread.php?t=98105 Tires are pilot sports a/S, previous owner was from Pacific Northwest. Stock size I think, 235 and 265. Planning to do a track event in the spring which will probably burn them up. I was hoping you guys would tell me how to get rid of the brake dust |

I'll be trying that stuff shortly. Wonger's constant posts on FB plus a great deal of Black Friday at detailersdomain.com got me. Of course, I should have just taken a wheel over to his place since he's only about two minutes down the street.

Yep, I would be looking at getting a set of the lightweight 'MOTORSPORT' stamped alloys myself. The M Contours are tolerable, but not as cool looking imo as the ltw's.

For some odd reason since I hate chrome but I actually prefer the polished non-stamped ltw's |

So, is there an option for stamped vs. non-stamped with that being the only difference between the two?
