Its been a few months since I’ve posted anything on the car. Currently I’ve upgraded the exterior some with an e34 m5 front bumper cover, clear turn signals, blacked out kidney grills and a good wash and wax. I’m in the process of ripping out the interior and replacing it with an e34 m5 interior that is a light gray color with the sport seats. Car is a real blast to drive. Hope you guys like it. ---

[/quote] Looks good. I have some exterior appearance ideas if you care. -Like others said shadowline the window trim, also maybe the side molding too… -Either put a front plate on or get a license plate replacement strip -If your not going to put centercaps on those Racing Dynamics wheels paint/powdercoat them all black or something? ---

Man seeing all these bimmer’s lately makes me want one sooo bad. It’s hard enough seeing my neighbor with 4-5 BMW’s/Mercedes Benz’s in his driveway. Lookin good so far! ---

Its a 3.5, Im having trouble locating the center bumper cover section to replace that part because it was different for the m5s. I think a euro plate will fill the space perfectly? Shadowline trim was next on my list of upgrades. Thanks for all the comments guys. ---
