Guys, we should give the man some credits for trying, again it's just prototype which needs to be refined like any other prototypes. I guess giving constructive criticism is more productive then bashing it. If you don't like it, tell him what you dont like about and/or what you would like to see. Or something like that.

True! Well it just looks "ricer" like and it looks like it does not belong to that body.

My Ride: 2007 530i. Purchased 6/28/07. Titanium Silver Metallic, Black Dakota Leather, Dark Poplar Trim, Steptronic, Premium Package, Cold Weather Package, Bluetooth, Adaptive Control Xenons. 10/30/07 Added OEM 124s with 245/40/18 & 275/35/18 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires. Installed red Cal Covers� from BavAuto. 11/21/07 Added OEM all-weather floor mats (for winter, carpet in summer) and coat rack. 6/26/08 installed M5-style rear spoiler. 6/30/08 put on red reflectors. 8/22/08 Euro turn signal stickers applied. 3/20/09 Installed Shadowline Trim. 3/27/09 Added Matte Black Kidney Grilles from Trinity. 4/03/09 Installed Bimmian Shadow Matte Black 530i Badges. 4/04/09 Installed LED license plate lights from Trinity. 5/01/09 Installed Brabus Interior LED Kit and White Angel Eyes. 5/02/09 Put in Brabus 6K Fogs. 5/14/09 Removed charcoal filter. 5/15/09 Installed light smoke LED side marker lamps from Trinity. 5/21/09 Sprint Booster. 6/12/09 Painted exhaust tips flat black. 6/13/09 Pulled red Cal Covers and painted calipers low gloss black. 6/27/09 RPI Ram Air Scoop from Trinity. 8/15/09 Installed Brabus's silver invisibulbs front and rear. 9/24/09 Installed R-Dash license plate LEDs from Brabaus (John).
The second of the two is more attractive. One color seems better to me. I think is would look nicer if the openings weren't so wide (tall). What about integrating some fogs? Nice effort.

Seriously +1 for possible fogs....I dont like the look w/o fogsI'd have to agree the second one looks better, the 1st one has Audi styling cues and although I DO like Audi styling, im not sure it fits on a Bimmer.

You have a lot of creativity. What I would suggest is designing something that follows the original lines of the car and adds to that.
This setup would look hard on a e90 but we all drive e60's.
