I like

but why Audi rims? They seem to copy our beloved M6 rims

Next thing is M- rear or M5-rear?

I like it a lot man, really a lot!

Very original and still tasteful. I like how the Audi rims fit the car, I like the stock skirts (intentional ot not?), and I like the black mirrors a lot!

IMHO you only need to paint your window trim and exhaust tips gloss black, and it will be just perfect.. oh and almost forgot - LCI rear lights will bring the rear to another level..

Are your angel eyes Angel-iBright and where did you get them from? (and price..? )

Bruce Miranda here on the forum makes the cables - I have bought v6 cables from him last year and have no problems whatsoever so far. Very happy with them.

What about the angel eyes? What brand and where did you get them from?

Now I did not expect Audi rims to look good on an E61, but you've proven me wrong!

Very original ride. The Chrome Trim needs to go in order to bring it all together, but I see you already have plans for that.

The photos are great too

Hi ExCon.

How did you use the wheels with different bolt pattern? Maybe I am too slow to understand...

Thank you.

I think his first post covers it -- he used spacers which also converted the bolt pattern. Well at least that is how I interpretted it
