Default My new toy....E60

Hey guys, as many of you know... i wrecked the gs back in november 07...well i picked up an E60 in december and the modding has started again...must say i really do miss this forum...the e60 forums arent anything like this....

05 545i
fully loaded...







So far i got the ACS front lip, intake and vogtland drop. 2weeks its off to the bodyshop for ACS roof spoiler, ACS diffuser, M-tech rear bumper, Hamman rear lip, m5 trunk finisher, and custom quad setup...and then to D2 for some wheels!!!!

Great color! The R/C tails are really set off by it. Are the folding mirrors stock?

Those look like 530i Sport Package Wheels, not 545 wheels

Yes those look like the wheels off of a 530 sport, but then again go browse our own forums and see ES's with SC wheels, 2GS's with 3GS wheels... and even Lexus with INFINITI wheels. Whats wrong with him having wheels off of a different 5 series?

Congrats on the purchase!

Those were the wheels on the car when i purchased in back in decemeber. I ask myself why would the pervious owner get rid of the staggered 18's? Whens the NEF bbq?
