the rojak look..
as the new wheels are now in conflict with the overall cosmetics, the complete AC Schnitzer bodykit on the car is for sale. they're originals. if interested, kindly contact Miepower, he's the exclusive agent in this matter
will eventually be getting rid of the gearknob, doorlock pins, boot & grille badges too.. price is one teh ais each. RM100 will get you those replica tailpipes.. once i remove it lah.

Ooo nice M-System II wheels. They must be much lighter than the ACS too I presume.
You can run them naked for fun sometimes too.
Btw how did the ACS get cracked?
Eh I just noticed you stay really close to me. I'm on Jln Datuk Sulaiman 4 lol.

thanks nick.. i was running them naked for several days whilst the covers were repainted, but that look was too naughty for my liking.. me old man la and yes, they're lighter than the ACs, albeit marginally.
both the rear ACs cracked on the inside lip. i can only speculate they're caused by me running over too many potholes
we're practically neighbours then.. let's have teh tarik real soon

Btw, I noticed they're not the usual rims; they look more chromish/shiny?
Haha, letting for of the Schnitzer parts? So next up, planning to do it up M style?
thanks bro.. the lips of the rims were previously skimmed, so there's nothing much i can do about them. the caps however were sprayed hyper silver.
yea lor.. now must look for M barang to match the throwing stars oredi :wink:

I think the M-Systems II does have specific left and right side for the wheels, not sure which way it is supposed to be tho, need to find a photo reference for that haha. It's design is meant to direct air onto the brakes.
See info here:

(This pic is the older M-System)
Btw, teh tarik sounds good, but have to raincheck, working outside country now.

I see. Hyper silver. Very nice and kilat look to it. They're two piece rims right? I remember seeing pics of restored rims, with the cap [star] being removable and refurbished separately from the lips.
Wow, from AC to ///M. What's next bro? Alpina, Hartge, Dinan?
