Default Dramatic new mods - the phoenix edition!!!!

As some of you know, my E60 had a little disagreement with a trailer hitch:

Since it was hurt and near death, she has been reborn and risen from the ashes like the mythical Phoenix. Here is a sneak peak of her new "face"

Special thanks are due to:
TrinityAutosport, they supplied the matte black grilles, front Hamann Rep bumper, RPI scoop and a new CF hood emblerm.
AcutePerformance - Seibon CF M3 Style hood, LOVING the way it looks bro
Tristar Autobody in Huntington Beach - they are doing some AMAZING work

Other new additions are the LCI headlights and LM2 module (to be wired and coded shortly)


More pics to come after I actually pick it up.

Wow looks nice! I like the new front end, kinda reminds me of the E46 design on the bumper. Can't wait to see some pics after you get her back.

Thanks Bro, I liked the old M5 style bumper, but I also REALLY like being different.

Yeah, Lawrence has been personally working on my car. I am really impressed, hard to see in the picture the way the forum reduces the size, but the paint looks amazing.
