Nice job on the pics.

Not my style on the car, though.

Not sure how I feel about something so nearly perfect as an M5 getting the VIP treatment. With that kind of coin I'd personally do it much different, but different strokes for different folks I guess.

ttribe

It's a 535...but, still.

synth19

Yeah, 535i.

wheels and stance... yes

body kit.. ew

Aman

I think it's a good-looking car for this genre.

Hapa DC5

I can appreciate the work put into the car. VIP isn't my style, pics look great.

Sarlacc

question: how do you take what is already the ugliest 5 series design and make it worse

answer: that car


I like pic #5 with the flare, very nice.

I was wondering where Jason (JMK) went, now I know, beautifully executed

Great pics!

Car is OK. It's almost like the wheels look too small for the car. I actually kind of like the kit, but not a fan of the wheels/tires/stance...

synth19

Dang Sarlacc! I do love this car though!

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

Haha wsup fellas! Been awhile!

Thanks for the comments, positive of negative.

CAgine

what is the best looking 5 series in your opinion? e39?

SuperTrooper169

iTrader: (2)

Lolz first I think a regular WRX is an STi and now I think a 535 is an M5. I need to get my contacts prescription checked.

Sarlacc

I'm biased. I love the E28. But yes I do like the E39 a lot as well.

I also, really like the f10.

The e60, imo, does not fit in to the evolutionary design of the 5.

Kind of like the 2nd,3rd and 5th gen prelude look alike and follow an evolution, and then you have the steaming pile of 4th gen that so far from the prelude in and out...why bother

Plenty of people love the e60...so its just my opinion.

S14 n Tsx

Great shots.

I am only liking front, not sure about the side & rear kit.
I am always been fan of those wheels, but not sure about on e60, something doesn't look right...

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

It's definitely not your typical BMW styling but when you look at all the modded 5's, they all pretty much look the same. Everyone gets the same parts and wheels etc and I can't stand that. This is a completely different, "in your face" look and I'm very happy with the end result. It's pretty much exactly how I pictured it in my head.

Btw, I love the F10 as well! I would love to pick up a F10 550i for my next project!

vwong

Why do I understand what you were trying to say with this example? Oh...because I had a 3rd and 5th gen Prelude.

Anyway, the pictures themselves are very nice. As for the car, well, the body kit killed it!!!

Sarlacc

I remember your 5th gen quite well from autoX.

I sorely miss my 3rd gen.

ACCURATEin

Ah yes this is the one that showed up on Mayday garage's daily post earlier.

Looks good Jason. (if you're reading)

I'm sure you miss your TL, but I know you're loving the bmw.

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

Thanks! Coming from someone that also went thru with a "controversial" build, it means a lot. You pushed the envelope when everyone else was doing the same old thing and it paid off. Kudos.

I don't miss the TL at all! The 535i is so much more fun to drive! I do miss how cheap it was to mod the TL though. Haha

eccjak

I was at BBQ HUT in Hoffman Estates Friday night. Saw the car outside .

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

Haha we were there too! Loud tables on the right side. That's hilarious!

synth19

Hilarious! Small world!

chill_dog

Great shots ! Meh car .

Osamu

car is alright, not the biggest fan though, looks funny, maybe just the sides and the body line on the sides of the rear kit. Definitely could do without the stickers, bulls license plate, and license plate frame though.

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

Haha you for real? I'm cool with negative feedback on the car, kit, wheels etc but you're going to nit pick my sponsorship decals, my choice of vanity plate and my license plate frame?? Lulz. That's funny.

Osamu

haha, sorry for nitpicking, just looks so "import tuner" for a euro. It's cool, overall I appreciate all the work, just somethings throw the look off a little a bit for me, haha. Either way, if I saw it in real life, I'd probably definitely be drooling, but it's just too easy to criticize the little things from the pictures.

oonowindoo

you need bigger quad exhausts ASAP. and maybe a simpler sideskirt, other than that, car looks good

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

Well, it is a J-Euro build... Japanese styling cues on a Euro car BUT your opinion is your opinion. I agree that its easy to sit behind a computer screen and criticize but you either love it or hate it.
Nah, no quads for me.

ttribe

I like the front piece of the body kit; very F10 M5-ish.

ACCURATEin

You're welcome man. The car looks beautiful. I immediately thought it was nice when i saw it pop up in my newsfeed.

haha my dumbass is still trying to seek out parts to install on the TL lol.

Yeah i bet it's fun to drive. What's next for it anything planned?

Steven Bell

iTrader: (2)

Nice job on the pics, brother.

There's some serious tuckage there....

nspec_ya4

iTrader: (38)

Meh. Pass

Crazy Bimmer

Great pics gents!

Car looks pretty amazing in person. Only nitpicky thing is that i would do the grill surrounds in gloss black instead of white.

I know a place that can paint that for you. Let me know. Burp.

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

Haha it never stops!

Still on my list: OE M5 mirrors, tune/reflash, catless downpipes.

Need to sit down and take a breath before spending any more though.
Haha if I wanted gloss black, I would've just bought a gloss black grill! I love color matched grills

jmkiang

iTrader: (5)

What's good! Want to mod my head lights???

Good to see you're still THE head light OG.

Great shots, loving the body kit and the rims. Nicely done!

In my opinion, the charger is a domestic piece of junk (shit).

I remember when you joined E60.net, you had posted pics of the TL.....inspired me to mod mine.
