Cool man. Can't wait to see more.

I love me some e39. Curious as to what the exhaust will sound like... and how you're going to route the pipes.

I love the "summer" wheels. Just wrap them in lower tyres.

Are you planing to fix the rear end (metal piece)?

I like it so far.

[willis]

Real nice pickup and turn around. I love e39s, they look especially sinister in black.

Got myself a christmas present
This is the new project after i sold my e36 328i.
ill update the thread when im working on it.

This car came originally as a 523ia but later on there was a problem with the motor so, the owner before me swapped a M52B28 from another e39 into it.

Cosmoss black on the outside, with a light interior.

Alot af things and details i whant to change and improve on this car.
