I have been quite busy of late. Quite a few mods have been added (and most are quite stealthy). Had the car since August and it's a diesel....

Can you spot the mods???















My personal fav pic at the mo:



Hope you like.

Looking at the exhaust tips, I would say that it is a pre-LCI, but then again, I'm not too familiar with diesels.

Based on that, you've done M-tech kit, LCI lighting update rear, overlays on the front, M5 mirrors, blacked out roundels, cross-drilled brakes, color-matched, blacked out grill, debadged, and possibly wheels.

How'd I do? What do I win?

Judging by this pic, you are in serious need of polishing. Those swirls are horrendous! Do you use wire wool to wash your car or just the local hand wash guys? Either isn't great!

Car looks cool though. I'm still undecided on the black grills. Are they stealthy or just boy racer-y?.......I just don't know!

Is the M5 Trunk finisher one of your recent additions?

Yep, pretty bad on Raj's motor.

Have a read HERE about what causes them then have a look around the site on how to remove them.
