Arma 134 Report post Posted November 6, 2014 Haven't had the chance to take some proper photos and over-edit them in a while, especially since the crash, so decided to snap a few yesterday afternoon. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allan 295 Report post Posted November 6, 2014 That looks nice a good balance of black and white and hope you are happy now shes all back together with summer just around the corner. This is my personal feelings the lower grill a "T" bar instead of the chrome rings not sure on the wheels. But enjoy her they are a nice car to go cruising in. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tristan 338 Report post Posted November 6, 2014 Looking awesome, how I envisaged I'd have had it one day... Like Kyu said... Wheels. Or dip the current ones! Only other thing is I would paint or dip the chrome rings gunmetal. Great though! (Y) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only other thing is I would paint or dip the chrome rings gunmetal. Great though! (Y) I had some M-Parallels lined up but decided not to go forward with them as I with what I was spending for the repair, I'd have to explain to the missus why I'm spending even more. If more pop up by around December I will be looking at acquiring them. They've always been my wheel choice for the e39 and reckon would look awesome. Not sure I'm a big fan of plastidip wheels though . Got to get some euro plates on her as well. Gun metal rings.... hmmm that could work. I considered gloss black too, but those would be too hard to see maybe? Might chuck it on photoshop and play with the options. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
qube 3570 Report post Posted November 6, 2014 i like the chrome rings, i think its nice to have a bit of chrome as long as its discrete. yea i guess it makes sense that after a huge repair bill you would want/have to withhold from spending any more! still looks great as it is, not a big rush.. just keep your eye peeled for bargains 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arma 134 Report post Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) looking sharp. congratulations. I think the wheels are fine. white balance makes it look off-white in some shots - I assume it's alpine white? regards Thanks. Yep Alpine white.

Lucan 196 Report post Posted November 18, 2014 Interested in my M-Parrs? Seems my E39 could be easier to sell with the stock wheels anyway... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
