My Ride: 2005 Alpine White 530i
Default

I decided on two things that would be obvious on the exterior that wouldn't break the bank... CF kidney grills and an all black roof/shark antenna/rear window ac schnitzer spoiler. Also considering swapping out my diffuser for the spare one that's in a flat black. Undecided though as I'd rather wait and put a cf one on to match the cf splitter/grills. Anyhow, I tried to have the vinyl roof installed yesterday but they had issues with the surface being too bumpy from weathering. So I took her home and clay barred (spelling?) her last night and am taking her back in in an hour and hoping that'll smooth out the process. I'll post pics or a link to pics in a few days once the photographer at the show posts them for the public. You will all LAUGH as there are only 9 cars in the European class out of 140, and I will put money on it that mine is one of the cleanest/sexiest there In Portland everyone mods Acura/Honda/Scions..... so to even have a 5 series in my mid twenties makes me stand out, but to have it modded makes me VERY unique. I think there was only 1 other e60 even registered I really wish I was in Cali where you have routine meets, everyone's into this hobby like I am etc. We're lame ducks up here.

PS I HATE the ducks - they robbed us last Saturday. We'd be going to the Rose Bowl if we would have had our act together

Oregon or OSU....it never really makes a difference. I thought OSU would have a decent shot at the Rose Bowl since they beat USC early on, but OSU choked in the big game against Oregon. I was actually happy to see the Ducks get past the Beavers since my co-worker is NUTS about the Beavs.

Ether way, I'm from MN and although they only won ONE game last year and are going to a bowl game it's pretty pathetic. They've won 7 games this year, but they really only won the games against the cupcakes like Florida Atlantic, Montana State, North Dakota, Bowling Green, Northern Illinois, etc.... They actually defeated Illinois, Purdue and Illinois...but they lost their last 4 conference games. They're lucky to even be in a bowl game, much less a game that's on New Year's Eve against Kansas.

Karma From your anti-USC thread earlier in the season.


Beavers Rose Bowl flushed down the toilet. Ducks 65-38 beat down
