Aside from that and the rear bumper, the car looks great Sam
Besides the chrome, what do you dislike about the rear?

First thing you should do is ditch the chrome trim and throw some shadowline on there.

Yo C, you really like that shadowline, don'tcha?

hahahahahaha! is it that obvious? i wish all bmw's came with shadowline. it's amazing what a difference shadowline makes on the car. chrome trim on any model brings out the lines of the car much, much more. that can be a good thing or a bad thing. when the e60 came out, i had a really hard time with the lines of the car. i almost considered buying out my e39 because of that one reason alone. however, once i saw a few models with shadowline in early 2004 and saw what a few extra mods could do, i decided to sell my e39 and make the move to the e60.

regardless, Sam's 7 series looks great!

I like chrome, lots people do and dont, certain cars can pull it off, and certain cant depending on wheel style etc n so forth. Best thing is you mod to your own pleasing, not for others "to each, his own"
no doubt!! I like chrome also

I just gave him a little warning lol cuz everytime a CHROME thread comes up everyone is bashing and saying is ghetto and what not

I dont think that chrome is ghetto, I think its a fad most people grow out of. Personally, I would love to get rid of all the chrome, different rims, different kit, different color, but I currently have other things to worry about before I dump a whole crapfull of money into a old car.
