Nice mods. I think its time to chromeline your headlights though.
Where you buy your HaterVisions?

Stop thinking about it and do it, or you could do what I did. +99-01 chrome HL bezels inside 95-98 HL housings.:D Right now you have too much contrast between your clear corners and the rest of the front end. I would add a pair of 750il chrome grilles to your list of modds as well.:buttrock

Heres what I'm working with:D

Nice work I have been trying to figure out where I'd put a monitor. How safe is the fitment on the headrest with the monitors? I am against putting in a ceiling mounted swing down monitor. I was thinking about having something custom that would sit just above the rear seat HVAC.
I do like your monitors and the painted calipers. What I dont get are the front monitors,is that more of a show thing?

EDIT:
Okay I really do not know what I am looking at. I see four monitors and at first glance I thought you had two in the front somehow maybe visor monitors. And two in the front seat head rest. Looking again it looks more like just the headrest have monitors. Which is correct?

maybe thats because monitors ARENT ricey...

maybe thats because clear corners ARE ricey...
at least on the pre-facelift e38s

In my case the OEM clear corners don't work because of my vehicle's color. Now an all black or silver E38, they would look fine. This is refering to the pre face lifted models.(95-98) I do like em though.

First i dont have the heart to cut the beautiful leather headrests so all my headrests came with monitors built into the headrests...and plus even if i did cut them you cant fit more than about 5 inch monitors in the stock ones. So with these i have 4 7' monitors. I also am not a fan of the ceiling tv.

i have 5 monitors...i have an alpine touchscreen as my main unit its dvd/cd/mp3 yada yada...then i have 2 monitors in my headrests then i have 2 more monitors in the backseat headrests
