Hot...lower it a 1/2in. up front and it would be stellar.

[Sam Son]

pretty much perfect wif the exception of the wheels

[MMmmmpower]

Looks great! Really clean looking M5.

I didnt like the wheels at first but after some more shots they kind of grew on me

[BMWM5LOVER]

The wheels look stunning in person, I think.
So far, nothing but compliments. Either way, thanks for the comments.

[MacR]

Chrome trim around the windows kills the wheels.

Shadow line it and I'll love it. It'll be what the inner middle-schooler in me would want, but there's nothing wrong with that. Just hang on to your vtec.

J/k, seriously, I actually like the wheels.... different and aggressive. Do they match well with the classical lines of an e34? Not really, but whatever, do what you do!


...and shadowline the chrome. :thumbup:

[MMmmmpower]

Is it just me or is the muffler look like it is uneven?

[SC David]

I like that rear integrated spoiler. The car is...original. Not exactly my cup of tea, but I definitely don't dislike it. Props for doing something different.

Thanks for the pics. I can't decide if paint M5 lowers black or silver

[BMWM5LOVER]

Well the wheels are similar in design to what is beneath the Throwing stars. Are they the perfect wheel? Probably not, but I think they suit the car quite well.

Regardless, I wanted something a little different, and achieved it, I like to push the boundaries a little bit. I WILL be de-chroming the side of the car. Forgot to mention that.

The exhaust is a little crooked, it is using the stock hangers but sits a little to the side. I need to have a shop fix that up.

all triflos look like that mine does the same thing but its fine

[Ace_of_Spades]

[BMWM5LOVER]

Thanks for the Props.

Fucking BEAUTIFUL sounding exhaust. Definitely worth the lopsided look.


SCDavid, what integrated spoiler?

SCDavid, what integrated spoiler?I guess my eyes are deceiving me. In the first set of pictures it looked to me like the decklid and sides look like they are flared out a little bit more, but it must just be the lighting. The E34 naturally has that curvature, but I thought it looked subtly exaggerated on your car.

[///Manuel]

Wow, I wouldn't have thought that this wheels setup could be pulled off, but it's really nice. Congrats.

[Lee in Ottawa]

love it. nice idea with the wheels, keep it different

[e34freak1993]

pop off the front cromegrills while ur doing the shadowline
but all in all great lookign car!

[4500 RPM]

No polished lips on the wheels means you need shadowline. I'd love to see those wheels with a polished lip...

[tonyroc14]

dude i love it. Is there a dent in the driver door tho? Other then that the car is perfect, i would love it.

I would like to see something like that... a slightly exaggerated rear 3/4's to trunk line you know the one Im talking about. something similar to the E46 M3CSL trunk where its more exaggerated and flared than the standard. Id liek to see if this is possible i think it would look pretty good if done right

[i3iograffiti]

i think either get new wheels or get rid of the red. if you cant, at least black out he chrome because they dont go well together.

[Bluntfunk]

beautiful, congratulations.

[BMWM5LOVER]

Thank you. I love it aswell. Just something different.

Thank you sir, that's the idea.

In one of my earlier posts I mentioned that I will be getting the shadowline, so yes, I am.

Yes, the car is got a few blemishes all around, all will be adressed by the end of the summer.

I chose the colours, and the car will be getting shadowlined.

[5mall5nail5]

Ew - your wheels, they're ruined.

[BMWM5LOVER]

If/when I get tired of it, I will just do all black.

[Fel]

Wow, that thing is serious!! Those are some pretty unique wheels right there. Love to see it in person, bring it to the meet friday! Even if only a few of us show, it'd be worth it, love to see that beast in person.

-Fel

[BMWM5LOVER]

Ill definitely try to make it. Is it still in the same lot? Lapaloma's?

[Fel]

Yep, you got it, right behind the Kelsey's, can't miss it.

[BMWM5LOVER]

Shadowlined As per Suggestions.
Came out decent.
