UPDATED PHOTOS FINALLY!!
Took the beast to autox a couple weekends ago and it surprised the shit outta me, in light of that i signed up for a time attack at the end of this month- 2k worth of overnight parts from japan ensued and i will be installing in the next couple weeks- notables: custom dme tunes, and 3.15 sport diff- should be in e39 M5 territory
anywhoo, took it to a show last weekend, out of over 1,500 cars it was one of 8 to take home a trophy, very proud of that as i've spent so much blood, sweat, tears, and time putting it back together, only to have it break down several times, before getting it to a driveable state- i absolutely was blown away by how many people actually liked it, so i hope you guys do too!

I apologize for the lack of pictures at the moment, I just got it back on the road and will give it a nice shoot in a couple weeks, this is just a quickie thread to reveal my side project for the past couple months
so most of you know me for this car:
well due to the fact that it isnt done, and hasnt been for 5 years, i was forced to get a second car to daily
enter virgin 2001 750iL the day i picked it up
totaled 20 days later:
at this point insurance wanted to scrap the car, yeah. over my dead body. bought it back and then proceded to mod and repair
i found out that this car had been in 3 previous serious accidents that were never reported on the carfax, and in my accident i had totaled 2 other cars...therefore i decided to not go the lame VIP route that everyone goes with these- dont get me wrong its a classy car still, however this one has seen some abuse and i decided to style the car accordingly
the theme... violence
notable modifications:
led fog lights
custom fog light lenses
replica acs front lip
led angel eyes w/ remote on
custom painted headlight housings
custom blacked out corner lights
FK highsport coilovers
thermostat controlled dual electric fan conversion
shaved headlight washer nozzles
more pics soon!
