YES I KNOW THE CAR IS DIRTY . but i havent had time to wash it, its been 2weeks that its been like that .

Anyhow, i dont want to hear anyone saying DROP IT or M-KIT coz it kills me that i cant do it due to the ROADS IN LEBANON. its full of potholes and ups and downs.

i have 3 of my friends who had their kits CRACKED due to the awfull roads here in lebanon. one with a Hamman kit for his 645i. one with his 545i m-kit and one with his M5.poor guy(he bearly drives it anymore )

i already took a big risk on my 124s. my 545i friend got his 124s cracked along with his front M-bumper.

ANYHOW, Hope u guys like them.

Great looking car! Congrats on a great purchase. You are very brave to have that car there. I have driven in Jordan, Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan and the roads were on bad shape. Enjoy your beautiful purchase!

Love the car the way it is, in my opinion it does not need any M-bumpers or lowered suspension etc.

Maybe I would add some wood trim to the interior, but that is something different according to personal taste.

I wish you many safe miles with your car, hope for you that it remains in this (undamaged) condition for a long time!

P.s., if road conditions are so bad, why don?t many people use SUV?s instead of sedans (like they do in Siberia)?

Congrats buddy! Nice car...I know how it is back home...you must be the shit arround the neighborhood!

Also, I know you (or your dad) must have some bad ass connections in the goverment to get such a nice plate.

Congratulations once again on the car...I will post pics of mine shortly!!

Edit...if you change your mind and choose to get a lowering kit, let me know I have one brand new in my garage for sale, I can either bring it with me if I go to lebanon in August or send it with my buddy that is going for sure.

I find that most guys delay the photography part weeks after they get their ride since day one but the girls seem to make that as their first priority. Guys tend to want to drive their cars a lot before realizing the photography part just must be done; the sooner the better. Bring a girl next time so you have someone to snap the shots while you just stare at your car. Nice ride.

Well many people have SUVs, but here SUVs are expensive plus high maintenance.
We have a 2003 Pathfinder LE (mom's car)

That's a nice and good car bteljuice1,

No mods needed. Only keep the filters clean and enjoy the ride.
Nice pics!

Do you have a spare tyre?
In those conditions both the RF tyres and a spare is needed!
