My Ride: 2008 BMW 550i Sport
Carbon Black Metallic/Cream Beige
Manny tranny and other stuff
Recently gone, but never forgotten:
2005 Ford Mustang GT (hence the name)
Torch Red/Crimson
Manny tranny and every option available for that year
2002 Chrysler 300M Special
Brilliant Black/Light Taupe/Dark Slate
Autostick and goo-gobs of neat features that I will sorely miss
OEM CF front splitter pieces, OEM CF rear diffuser, OEM CF rear decklid lip spoiler. Definitely wouldn't be winning any show awards, but it'd look nice.

you are not going to get show car with a grand sorry. I think all that cf stuff is going to junk up your car and make into a honda. CF roof are you kinding me...... Start basic. springs, wheels, light upgrades, spoilers, and such. Do some interior mods suede Headliner. If you take it out and ship it to I will do it at cost. That goes for anyone that wants suede headliner.

My Ride: 2005 Alpine White 530i
This thread became pointless real quick because everyone missed my point that I made in my original post- I'm not expecting to win any awards or even stand out in a crowd, I just want to look unique and clean. Nothing over the top or overly flashy as this is my daily driver for work and has to stay functional/clean/simple.
