No mods = the intelligent choice in this case

Modding that would be like a 50 y/o overweight gym newbie coming in with Tapout or Affliction gear.

Hey 'slice, what should I do with my race car for next season?



I usually run these headlight covers, but I had them off for a night enduro at the last race

The truck is #2, those wheels look like what trucks are supposed to have.....Not street-car rims with low-profiles.
The 5-series is #3, it's kind of plain but the lace-spoke wheels are classic.
The VW, well red isn't my color, and I'm not really digging the wheels, they look kind of Japanese for some reason. Also the front airdam looks like it has fangs instead of going straight across.

I agree. This particular car is very rare in that it has a color matched top. Every time I take it in for service (less than 24k so it's still under factory service) they beg me to trade it. 95% of this color came with black tops.

I love this car...and can barely ever drive it unless my wifes out of town and doesn't find out

Agree as well. Not a fan of those 24" wheels with rubber bands on trucks. WTF?

Again.....agree [damn] I think the E39 is one of the best looking BMW's ever. And these wheels make it even better. I would eventually like to take them off and have them polished to a mirror finish and have the centers resprayed.

That's good, because it's ORANGE as hell!

It's going to be my sons car. His school colors are orange and white. Much like Clemson. It was my best friends car. He bought it new, swapped wheels, added the front and rear spoilers and had them painted to match.

I use to have pictures of it when he drove it home in stock form. But the color is a metallic pearl orange.

Stock:

I'm not a HUGE fan of the wheels myself.

Looks like there's some weight reduction opportunities there...

[Sean]

It's a spec series, there's a minimum weight which I BARELY make.

So yeah, I could take out a ton of weight

Be gentle....I cry easily when criticized.

Well now I see why he changed them. The stockers look too big and heavy.
