Fuckin ILL!!

BTW, I have those same pedals, but I thought they sent me the wrong deadpedal. It doesn't fit at all. Mine's just sitting there uninstalled. does in look clean in person?


The dead pedal I have isn't perfect but apparently there's no 100% fitting deadpedal available for the 6-series from any supplier.

The car's already lowered with Eibach springs!
This is how it looked with the stock springs.

I don't want it any lower because the ride is already pretty bumpy on bad roads.


I'd like to have quadruple exhaust tips but I don't want to replace the mufflers.
I'm looking into getting some custom tips made.
Looks good! Wow was quite high before lol

One last thing, i think a blacked out grill would look great on your car, since your doing the whole black scheme anyways.

the car looks great, good luck with it

as for a dead plate, you may want to just go with the ///m, it will fit proper.

btw, do you have any more full pix of the interior? i like the color and am considering it so if you have some that show the interior in detail, do post them when you get a chance...

I've had the ///m deadplate in a previous car and although it fits properly I think it doesn't match the other pedals.


Here are some hi-res pics of the interior.

Wow, very nice....

Looks like we are hunting for the same Alpina diffuser.

I see you liked my idea of painting the base of the M-mirrors in high-gloss black!!!

Nice and tasteful choices all around and nice pics as well

Are the headrest standard? They look like cabrio versions. Maybe I have not paid attention to new model features.

I also realize there is more to the money saving story of by buying a diesel powered 6er in Europe than just the cost of the car from BMW what with taxes for this and that over there.

The headrests are standard. I believe they were changed with the facelift in 2007.
