To the original poster. It is cheating to have a much nicer backdrop in the after picture. It's like the weight loss commercials where the before photo the person is always frowning and looks like they havn't slept in a week. Then in the after they have a big smile and are all done up!

Just kidding, the car looks great. I don't have an after yet as I just got mine! :D

this is directed towards saj3n: is that a factory pin stripe down the side of the car? i have a similar one but it doesnt follow that ridge (and through the handles) in the body its below the window...like so:

Angry pancake,

Beautiful car! I love the mpars and the even like your unique choice of headlights. Have you tried it without the spoiler though? I think it would look just as badass with a little more class.

Dan-ny,

Glad you took those wheels off! I think the spokes on your aftermarket wheels are far to thin to visually balance the beefy stance of the 5. Like the big guy at the gym who never trains legs. :)

Those are two different cars, I took the wheels and the lowering suspenssion from the black car and put them on the Lazer Blue car, and the wheels work perfect, I had them for 2 years and I had no cracks or bends on the wheels.

Ah ic. I wasn't doubting the integrity of the wheel at all, just the fact that they don't seem to visually balance the lines of the car well. On second thought, It's just a personal taste thing, go nuts.

peace,

There sure are some beautiful ride amongst the members here... You should all be very, very proud. You have all made an 18yo design practically timeless!!

Saj3n: That thing is ****ing awesome!! The shadowline worked a treat, as did those black rimz!!

LiquidTiger: Alpineweiss is STILL the best colour for an E34... And you got some mad skills behind the shutter too I see (judging by those photos... They look great)!! Your car sits exactly the same ride height as mine... Do you think we could both do with just the tinyest jag lower in the rear?? Like no more than half in inch... I think so.

Now I just have to remove that nice kink in my wheel arch which someone kindly left me while I was parked.
