Not feeling the M5 badge, otherwise good job!
It's not an M5 badge. It's MS (Msport)

Truely awesome!!! Probably the biggest rebuild project in here

Everything looks spot on, apart from the white grill, CF grill will look much better in my opinion

i like the police lights tho, you naughty!!

No M5 badge.. just an M badge on the engine for kicks.. until I get the S54 in there though there is an M5 stickers that come with the side grills on either sides... I don't know what to replace it with, maybe my company logo instead.

thanks boys, hope you like them...

Looks great. What an amazing transformation!

Not to be critical but to me, the antenna looks odd painted white. In my opinion, I think it would look better painted black -- no need to call attention to it, just let it blend into the roof...

Other than that, outstanding!

Nice job, but definately lose all the "M" badging even on the sides. that way it will be your own unique car and not a "M" wanna be. seriously nice job though and thanks for documenting the process so well. very impressive.
