jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Nice! Love the wheels. Did you add on the Msport kit yourself?Just the front bumper but had to get some pro help as it was a bit of mission. Kept the original rear bumper and skirt with the tail pipe pointing down and hidden, which I prefer to the Msport one.The wheels are genuine BBS aftermarket (not sure which?) and look great in the pics but badly in need of rejuve. Sadly, that might be more expensive and harder than I'd like. Edited July 2, 2012 by jeffbebe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ill show you my curb damage when I get home whih I covered with dip really nicely. I've actually had them refurbished since taking those pics. Polished lip, hyper silver centers and black bolts. The looks mint. Thought about black but I reckon it looks a bit too much on a black car - a little bit boy racer-ish - and I'm way too old for that! haha Edited November 11, 2012 by jeffbebe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffbebe 1560 Report post Posted November 19, 2012 Took the car to Final Touch today to spruce up the paint work. The polish is exceptional and they've done a really good job with the stone chips on the bonnet. There were a few key scratches on the driver's door which I'd hoped would come out better than they did but I suppose you get what you pay for and I didn't pay for a repaint. Anyway, pretty happy with the exterior of the car now - you wouldn't know it was 16 years old! Just got to ditch the eye lashes that it came with and replace with eye lids (lower) which don't look 'stuck on' and improve the front end IMO - like this one: Then onto the interior and, of course, dealing with any/all the mechanical issues that crop up along the way.

M5V8 337 Report post Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) i don't actually remember now. Off a website somewhere. It's a good copy of a Hammann lip. Edit: sorry I know that's a crap answer. I'm not tryin to b a d*ck. This is my 2nd m5 and I bought it as a backup for one on my first car as i cracked one in a Campark. So I've had it for over 4 years now. If I find the site ill flick u a PM. All I remember now as it had heaps of bodykit stuff for all sorts of cars. took this yesterday - better camera Snap3.bmp Edited November 21, 2012 by M5V8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
