I think it looks good on either. Flashy yes. Ridiculous no. I personally think it looks pretty damn good, but that's just me again. I just can't imagine the Liberty scene lasting long tho. Who knows. I still like it either way. These are show cars i've posted BTW and not race cars.

The LW Aventadors looks pretty bad ass too

LOL. I want to do a W.B., but not sure if the conventional way or add on way would be more to my liking.



I thought about it as well being that all the vehicles that have been worked on have been coups, but I still feel that any shop out there that has the skill to fabricate the fenders can work around the design and make the rear flair overlap the door, thus cutting it in two pieces. I mean, this has technically been done and seen before on an e60 such as the Lumma design, but nothing to the effect that makes me think it looks really cool like the Liberty Walk cars. I think Prior design has an add-on setup as well. All range from 4-10k I believe.




We need a photoshop expert to try and add the Liberty design to your pictures.
I'm not digging the Lumma design tho. Especially on the orange car it looks like an afterthought that doesnt flow at all. Especially on the rear.

Personally I think those really wide fenders only look good on shorter smaller cars like Porsches. At least on a 2 door.

Google the prior designs kits. IMO the prior designs kit looks good on an e60. its not the same but goes to show a widebody on an e60. Personally i think the only way it can be pulled off, is if its got a aggressive stance and is an m5.. aka race car haha.

I've been meaning to stop by LTMW to see if they could possibly do a Liberty Walk render of my E60. I've actually met Kato-San, owner of Liberty Walk at the last LTMW meet.

We'll never know how it truly looks unless we get a good rendering. I do like the prior design kits though.

Nice! Hopefully you get it done! Really wanna see what it would look like. I know it would look much better on a coup, but f*ck it. I think it would look hard as hell on the e60 if done right.
