How tight is the engine bay? Is there any possibility to shrink rear end back to original Dyane size?

Wow! the rims match perfect!
I'm not wery comfortable whit the crome things, i should add that the emblem is ther, but not visible on the photo.
But i still thing i need either smaller rims, or less profile on the rubber.
I allready removed the rear impact rubber(not sure what the name is in english)
Thank you! Now i out for some wheel hunting!

So nice - and I agree - it has to be chrome! Especially around the lights - with black it looks like someone has punched that car in both the eyes or like someone has asked that car to look through binoculars smeared with shoe polish.... - if you remember that old prank. :-)

I guess silver metallic, if it is "sparkling" is better than nothing/black. No harm in making a test as I guess you donīt have any chrome under the black paint, or are they stainless steel.
