    I'm taking all my dip off when I can afford paint because the P/O destroyed the trunk lid and my dad knows a guy that can refinish my style 5s, I just don't have the money for everything at the moment

    X2320938243829 on what everyone else said. Plasti-dip is garbage, stop using it. Save for legit wheels, dont buy reps. and lastly, don't drive it like an asshat.

    Not sure where in NJ you are, but i'm in north NJ and have a set of staggered Mpar's for sale. If you're interested in them we could work something out in trade+cash for your style 5s

    What have you done to the trunk lid and tail lights?


    A stick shift facelift E39 with low miles is a sought after car, don't do untasteful things to it.

    If you can't afford authentic wheels, just do what I did and space out the style 5's. I ran 20mm spacers up front and 12mm rear on my 525i.

    But with all that money you're spending on tow hooks, plasti dip, and night shades you could be saving for legit wheels.

    I took everyone's advice and took off the tow hook, it looks much cleaner I also installed my carbon fiber kidney grilles since the old ones were shot

    Like everyone ahead of me said, lose the tow hook and if I were you I'd save up for some lovely oem bimmer rims. You're lucky you can have such a nice car at 15! I wont be able to get insured on a car like that untill I'm in my 20s lol
    Great start, you're heading in the right direction!

    +1 lose the tow hook, does not belong

    Not a fan of the wheels or grills, IMO it looked better before, with or without the pitting and curb rash.

    Off to a good start, maybe space out the BBS? Defo lose the tow hook.

    Looks way better with the drop but IMO, lose the tow hook. It could be so much cleaner. Awesome start though, nice first car.

    A lot of my car has changed since my last post including the shipment of these



    After a long weekend my FK streetlines were finally in



    About a 1/2 inch left on the rears, an alignment is needed badly





    The muffler was just deleted, my new kidney grilles and E60 SSK should be in this week. Since I just turned 16 I'll be getting my permit this week and I can drive my baby
