Hey man, I really like it. I think I commented on your car in another post. Only thing I'd do is give the back turn signals the clear blinkers. When your car has so much black in it, anything that can create some sharp contrast is welcome. Cut that portion of film off the brake light and let it be shown. The E60 turn signals are very sexy as-is. It looks amazing. Also, get some M5 mirrors and lower the car. Check this out and see:



When I'm right I'm right!

P.S. - Pic of this car is the one reason I really considered painting my 166's gloss black. Looks so mean!!!!!!

Nice dude! Glad you're getting some love on the forums. Can't wait to see it with the black roundels/ wheel caps!

I would buy that M5 right now lol! That is a good idea on the lights. That does look very sharp. I will take to tint shop and see what they can do. I am a little weary of lowering the car cus I love the ride so much on mine. I think I might do that at a later time for sure though!
