  1. e61 530i Touring Alpina body kit 2005
  2. Yer that's what I'm thinking, been pulled over twice already and they ain't even tinted yet!
  3. haha yer, well I had a hell of a long time to save and think about what i wanted, thought f**k it might as well go balls deep
  4. Yer man couldn't agree more think I'm gonna really enjoy tweaking it. Thanks for the heads up on the lights, didn't realise that at all. will I get fined for it or just asked to remove them? Thoughts on removing the door windshields (monsoon covers or whatever there caleld), probably look better without them hay? I might give the vinyl a go, where's best to get some from locally so i can have a go this weekend?
  5. Looks dope!! Really wanna get one of the classics one day.
  6. Hi guys, big shout out to all you bmw fans, I'm totally hooked. Looking forward to getting involved with the scene! Only took me 33 years to get around to taking my driving test lol. Finally did it back in Dec last year, donno why it took me so long (always had mates and a misses to drive me around i guess lol, but really because I lived in London most of my life and didn't need a car till i moved to NZ 8 years ago then it was pure lazyness). Finally got my first set of wheels 5 weeks ago, mean looking BMW 530i with alpina body kit and some deep dish wheels. Already clocked over 5,000km in it doing some epic road trips up the cape and around the north island with mates. I think I also put off getting a car for so long because I'm a tinkerer, always had mountain bikes and ride at quite a high level, rebuilt all my bikes from the ground up and tweaked the sh*t out of them so knew i'd be the same the second I got a car! Already ripped the kidney grill off and stuck a matt black one on, new black badges just arrived and tinted windows. Now looking at blacking out the chrome window trims and lights. Quick question; I got quoted $450 for the trims and $380 ish for the lights front and back, which is about right but I'm thinking of doing it myself anyone done it before? for the trim should I Plasti dip or vinyl? I hear lamin-x is good for the lights? Here's a few photos of my car in it's current state
