about a week after the style 5s were mounted and those pics were taken I installed a NEX coilover kit
had the strut housings cut and powdercoated to match my style 5 bolts

Probably the same reason guys in the US take the side markers off, and the guys in Europe add the side markers.

Honestly I think his car looks better with the elephant ear mirrors. I still like the M5 Evo mirrors best (glad my car had 'em stock as that's a spendy add-on). But I think the elephant ears are the next best looking mirrors. They've certainly got more mirror than my little Evo mirrors. They look great but don't give good looks... lol

the car park pics arent mine the guy who owns the other E34 took them hes a helluva photographer i took the other pics..

i swapped back to the elephant ears just because i hate the newer style ones they stick out too far and look out of place on an E34..

the badge is the old ///Motorsports badge from the 70's
