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.

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.

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!

Anyway, the pictures themselves are very nice. As for the car, well, the body kit killed it!!!
#20
I sorely miss my 3rd gen.
#22
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
#27
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.
#28
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.
#29
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.

Nah, no quads for me.

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.

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?
#36
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.

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

Great shots, loving the body kit and the rims. Nicely done!
In my opinion, the charger is a domestic piece of junk (shit).
