IMHO, bimmers and old VW's are cool-euro looking already, but there are a few things you can do, I suppose. Zender makes(or made) aero parts for the car, but I think that all but the front spoiler are NLA. Still, these are parts you can find used. Like mongoose said, nice german 15" wheels look great, and there is a little variety according to taste. (Ronal, Borbet, BBS, etc.) Euro bumpers are great looking, but expensive. You might want to consider pushing in the US-spec bumpers to create a more flush look. There was a good writeup on this awhile ago, look in the archives. You could also put in the side-blinker lights (like late-model german cars) if that's your prefrence. I haven't decided if that's too ghetto or not for my car yet, but it can look good if done correctly. I suppose looks are all subjective, so this is just a short list to start you in the right direction. Check out sites like bmpd.com and bavauto.com. They have a good selection of aftermarket parts for bimmers. And Maxmillian Importing is THE source for german import parts (clear blinkers, etc.) Hope this helps!
