Thanks for the kind words guys. I understand why many of you dislike the car... after all, it is a rusty beat up 5er.
But with that said, I mod my cars for myself. If you don't like it, cool. You've got your car to make it how you want.
As far as "trying too hard", I'm not trying for anything. I do something because I like it. As far as being unoriginal or not innovative, I'd like to see how your car compares to a twice-totaled E28 with a twin turbo toyota motor, air suspension, rust, and a cult following.
Again, I appreciate the positive feedback, and understand the negative.
Just keep doin' what you guys do and keep the BMW spirit alive.
