Thanks for the compliments guys! I've done some stuff since those photos like added M5 mirrors, removed the rear trunk spoiler for a more finished look, and added front turn signal decals to cover the reflector, new R1 sport rotors, painted calipers black, new exhaust, new rear. Too much stuff.
Someone asked about trunk finisher. Cost me about 160 and my friend's shop listed below (iND) painted for a great price for me. Was a really easy install and totally worth it!

Alpina Classic 19" with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 245/35 front and 275/30 back. ET24 front and ET30 back, with 10mm spacer. I love the way the 20 spokes clearly show off the brake discs, which is especially noticeable on a sunny day at a distance. The Alpina emblem is spring loaded and slides away to reveal a lock in the hub cover. Great design and some degree of theft prevention. Notice there are no valves on the wheel; just a deep clean design. The valve is under the cover, in the center of the wheel, feeding air to the tyre through one of the spokes. A true classic which have been around in near unchanged form, albeit ever increasing size, since 1974.

Great car Howitzer!
I've seen other pics you've posted and you definitely have some serious photography skills too. I gotta say I'm liking your trunk finisher. Can you give me some more info about it (type, cost, source for purchase etc). Also can you point me in the direction of any other posts you may have which has more angles of the rear of the car with the trunk finisher.
Thanks a mil!

Looks very nice Ulf, the 167m shows off the brakes very well.
