Hi ambn,

I am in Philippines. Fairly high taxation on cars here. eg new E60 525 going for USD 82K. Got touring at a bargain for 11K and spent about 2K on it already. I got an Alpine 9830 installed with DLS front speakers, taken my RF 600a4 amp. Paid $500 for the Alpine and speakers plus great install. Sound awesome and it does MP3 disks which i particularly liked.
This weekend, last bits of addition, new steering tie-rods and OBC retrofit!.

Those stock rims are good but very light and weak. If you hit a large port-hole at speed it will bend the rim!. Two of mine were bent and repaired by PO, I am looking for upgrade later on these things, but now since I got new rubber all round, I am enjoying it. Best of luck.
PS: My biggest kick is, it drives better than an X3 3.0i that costs about 5 times as much, what a bargain!.

I got a cardomain account but it had only pictures of my E46 wheel iinstall. Hopefully, this weekend I should get pics cut and posted there. Been busy with work and family stuff. Just got a "lecture" from a Christian nun yesterday when I was trying to enrol my 5 year old in a pre-school there.....
