The wrap-over is almost impossible to be perfect simple due to Continue reading ‘Carbon Fiber Head Covers Update!’
Here are the pictures of the poweflexes for the E34 in a complete kit!. I ordered them through a Singapore dealer Hotwheels for a good deal. The package took like 2 weeks to arrive which isn’t too long. I am really happy with the way it is package. For some people, package makes a difference.
