Sorry for the delayed photos. We recently did a photo shoot of our shop and the Wagon made it in there. She really deserves to have her own photos, but I haven't got there yet.

I am in love with this car. I must say the 295 width tires rubbed a LOT in the rear. However after rolling the fenders, that is no longer an issue.

Thanks!
I think she's ready to be lowered, too.
Ya that's a tough comparison for a non-modded Merc to be next to a modded Bimmer....

So I finally rolled the fenders and NO MORE RUBBING! YES!
Getting a clear bra installed on Friday - hopefully that'll protect the investment in the Lambo Paint Job...

Best car I've ever owned. I am so happy with it. By far and away the best investment in this car was the COBB tune. If you haven't done it, you are missing out big time.

Attached are a few recent photos, as well as one where another Forum Member stopped by the Shop to say hello and share in some E61 love...

Also attached is my latest project - 2013 X6M
