  • 00 528ita 09 to present

    Purchased from BF.C member in October of 09 in immaculate stock condition.



    First addition was DDM Ultra HD 80's that were a Christmas present from the wife.



    Next to mods were window tint courtesy of 502 motorsports in Atlanta and 18" chrome M Par reps.



    While traveling back and forth to Michigan last year I began having issues with the chrome M Pars. I cracked one rear and got a pin hole in the other. Being on a small budget I decided to go ahead and replace the rear with polished M Pars hoping they would hold up better than the chrome and by only replacing the rear this left enough money in the budget to go ahead and get some new suspension.

    18 x 9.5 " M Par reps with Federal 225/40 SS595 tires
    15mm ECS spacers on rear
    NNR front coilovers with adjusted SLS on the rear



    It then went 9 months without any further mods due to a lack of funds until now.

    Added:

    18 x 9.5" M Par reps with Federal 215/40 SS595 on front
    Moved 15mm ECS spacers to front. Added 20mm ECS spacers to rear.
    Dropped front another 3/4"
    Seibon CF hood from Vex Motorsports
    M5 bumper from DDM painted by Travis Yager
    VHT to side markers
    Black grilles from Jlevis

          I forgot to add that in the spring it did get EBC pads and EBC black dash rotors on all four corners. I also swapped the clear depo covers for smoked.

              There is hood paint in the works for next year. The lower portions on each side will receive factory paint and the middle will remain the same to leave a nice V down to the grilles. I seen an E92 done this way with Dinoc last year in Indiana. I also have plans to Dinoc the roof so it will flow.

                      Love everything, apart from the hood.
                      CF on an E39 just doesn't work. It can work on smaller, sporty cars, not on a comfortable bigger car like the E39. :/

                        that last picture looks amazing the hood looks good but as said more of a comfortable big car i think it should be painted

                          shiny cf and dinoc doesnt go well together, looks great other than the hood

                          you should just store it untill its painted then the car will look real clean
