On the contrary, I think it looks great. Which is lucky, being that it's my car :)

If you thought the Sony Carplay tablet install was a bit of a far step from OEM you're gonna love the latest changes to this one.

Looks better than ever - car can definately rock a livery and love the 'track grime' on it too.

Love it, ironically it’s gone from probably from the most polished , detailed and groomed M3 in the country to looking like a well used track hack 😀

The irony! Hahaha. Exceptional platform for a head scratching promo car I'd say :D

Took this on to Hampton Downs a few weeks back to support the Porsche Club track day. A foggy morning presented an excellent opportunity for some cool pics.

Spent a little time on this one over the weekend, removed the wrap and tidied it up a little. A fair few carbon fiber replacement parts are on the way, this should look a bit different again by xmas.

She won't look like this much longer :) new bits have started arriving from Japan. 

Rollcage stays for now, I like it too much. Front splitter is going in the bin and the Fancywide rear diffuser will be uninstalled (both scrape on everything and have seen better days, time for replacement).

Haven't come by this thread before. But this is one bad ass looking M3. Low key and mean looking (exactly how I'd have it if I was lucky enough to have one of these).

Yeah Skepple sure knows his stuff..! He was awesome to deal with too, I'll definitely use him again for designs in the future. I just wasn't driving the car much with the livery, and have other plans for it - but I did enjoy the time it was wrapped.

It's certainly been through some changes over the years in my care haha! I also like the current setup but it will be changing again shortly, hopefully before Jan.

Made me search up some old pics. Unfortunately pre-2015 are all photobucket so have watermarks (they're on the first few pages of this thread if you're interested). It had 20in Work wheels originally which I swapped for some BBS LM reps in 2012 or so. Still have all oem parts in storage (including all the oem wheels). This car is like lego, which keeps me interested over so many years. 

Although my interests have changed of late to much older cars from a different German brand, this one remains...! It has outlasted a lot (and was a bit touch and go for a while there whether I could keep him).

Another mild change-up underway. I've picked up some carbon parts from offshore, so am in the process of installing them. First off the bootlid, mix of pre and post facelift bits:

I'm selling my e39 M5 Style 65's x4 with tyres, let me know if you're interested


🏎️ Original BMW Style 65 (getting pretty hard to find, especially in good condition..!)
🏎️ Professionally restored & seldom used since (fitted twice)
🏎️ 18x8 ET20 & 18x9.5 ET22 staggered set (thanks Google)
🏎️ No buckles or curbing
🏎️ Zestino semi slick tyres 07RS compound, rears are 07R (slightly harder) 
🏎️ Fit e46 m3 with hub adapters (included), likely other models too (of course, perfect fitment on the e39 m5). 


I ran these for a bit then had them professionally restored and repainted by Wheel Fix It. They've been in the shed for about 2yrs now gathering dust, and realistically I'm not going to use them on this car again. 
Keep them white to stand out or repaint them shadow chrome - without repairs needed this is a pretty easy job for a pro. 
Let me know if you're interested - welcome to set up a viewing with prior notice. Test fitments as final due diligence only.
