My Ride: Bmw 530d 2004
Mika (Seip??nreik?) and I went out driving last night just before the dusk and took some pics. Too bad just few of them were just and just decent to share.
The winter is inevitably coming and that is visible everywhere, but we are still on our summer setups. Just a matter of time however....
Mika had just washed his jet black 530xd and that was clearly visible, as my car was covered with dust. And you just can't drive an inch at these times without getting the skirts and tires dirty, so please excuse us
.
Here are few edited takes:
Mika has John's (Brabusw209amg) HID fogs and it's quite easy to notice
!
Oh! We both upgraded our license plate lamps from John and man were they bright!!!

My Ride: See my signature
I assume that this is one of the last times until next late spring that we'll be seeing new pics of your summer setup.
Congrats on the RD LED license plate lamps. They are terrific IMHO.

Thanks Antti!
These are not SO bad as you told me
these are hopefully the last pics/evidence of my car looking as high as it is...my touring looks like a tractor beside that mean machine
I was so tempted to change my black kidneys before these pics were taken, but I?m keeping my decision and changing them with the other mods after the winter.
