I don't know if "king" is the right word, "idiot" comes to my mind every time I look at my mods list. Seriously, I think it's catching up to me cause I was really fighting with myself on the last item (Dinan Rear CF Strut Brace).

"Do you really need it? Is it gonna make a bit of difference????"

"I don't really need it. I don't even track my car. BUT, it'll complete my Dinan mods....."

Driving my E60: PRICELESSSSSS!!


2007:
//MMMMMYYY GOODNESSSSSS

???? hehehe

 

 

ha ha. make that TWO idiots then! well, not that you need any justification or reassurance,
but (like me) you went this route because you could. it's what truly makes you content.

anyway, it's all about personal taste, style and an expression of one self. to each their own!! ha ha.

but seriously, you got yourself one sweet ride, inside and out. a most comprehensive and complete set of goodies for sure!! it's certainly no exaggeration that you're the definitive king of mods. We salute you!!

Lastly, I chose to pretty much stick with the stock (external) look. you know, keep things under the radar (so to speak) until someone provokes me and then....ha ha....... ENJOY and BEST REGARDS!!

 

I'm at around 5200 in mods on my e60. See sig for details

Another 3k or so and I'll be complete.

 

didnt really start until this year <_< . bought my 166s before new years, still waiting for them. future mods will probably be springs, wheel spacers, m tech side skirts, maybe tint? god i hate the mod itch. :'(

 

I'm around 5k but I'm looking at getting the 7 series

this is the first time ive actually thought about it and i feel like an idiot!!
most expensive year of my life so far!!!
but to tell everyone the truth being able to park my car and walk away and turn around and look at it and smile everytime makes it all worth it.
Im sure u all agree!!

 

Ha ha. You got that right! When it's and said and done, it's all about what makes you happy. And modding your car to your exact preference is what's it all about!! Besides, life is simply too short. Would have, should have, could have, no thanks and no regrets either!! Again I salute all the modders here!!

BEST REGARDS

 

I agree with your thinking. I also respect the fact that you followed the Dinan philosophy of being understated. Everytime I go there, I think my car is the "flashiest" and I kinda feel out of place...haha. The only visible mod for most cars there are the Dinan wheels but I'm sure quite a few of them got superchargers under the hood that would blow my car away.

BTW, I was wondering how come you didn't get their suspension?

 

$15K and it's probably just starting... Better lock down your bank account and cancel your credit cards.. hahaha

You certainly take the prize for probably spending the most money in the shortest amount of time.
