I have installed the grill and footrest.

Some winter pics of mu beauty..

Some comments?

That ride of yours looks great -- nice mods. The drop is obviously needed!

Are you putting the sports springs on all round or only at the front? I was under the impression that the Touring's rear air-suspension could be dropped electronically/via the software, rather than using springs?

Thanks..

Only 30mm sport springs for the front. Yes, the air-suspension rear could be dropped electronically by software, but HARTGE have some other things for the air-suspension at the rear. The car will could lowering by it self with that thing. Look at this pictures,

Those pictures in the snow look great BMW-ALPINA! With all this Hartge gear, you may have to change your name to BMW-HARTGE!

Hehe.. Maybe, maybe... I think i will buy me a Alpina front for the OEM front later.. I will also wait for HAMANN, HARTGE, AC-Schnizter and see what they will make for the Facelift front..

I better not let my wife see your car with those wheels. My local dealer said they weren't available when I needed a new set of wheels (the aftermarket wheels were corroding). The M6 wheels are smokin...

My father has those Toora wheels on his 735i, also in 20" and they look absolutely amazing!!!


As for the rear suspension, mine E61 also has self leveling and did not need any thing to lower it than chansing the position of the bracket!



But i?m curious about those Hamann mirrors that you have on your signature! (on your previous E60) where did you get those!!!

I hate the original BMW mirrors! We could play tennis with those things!!
