New Pictures - 19" LM Reps
Since this is the first time that I've had a chance to wash the car since the new wheels, I thought I'd share some pictures.

I'm not too fond of running BBS caps when I don't have BBS wheels so I was wondering if anybody knew where I can find a set of plain carbon fiber ones.

Looks good. I went through a set of LM's myself too.

Also...

BIG THANK YOU for not putting BBS center caps on the reps. I seriously hate when people buy reps and try to play them off as real.

Looks nice, hope you don't have oem brake pads; cleaning brake dust off those scares me.

Just picked up some 3M Di Noc to make carbon center caps to replace the ones that they came with.

Yes OEM pads do leave a lot of dust. Luckily I'm using some ceramic ones.

Where do you guys get them from? Any idea of price?
I have the OEM E55 stoppers and will need pads soon.

I picked mine up from ebay and they were not that much. For the set of all 4 corners it runs around $100.
