Now that my car finally looks (and drives!) the way I want, I finally took some pics.
Here they are (now wishing I'd had the fogs on):

Looks great! Black always looked classy on these cars.Originally Posted by jaylebo
Just a few suggestions:
- euro (smiley) headlights
- euro bumper trim
- white front turn signals
- ShadowLine
- possibly an M-Tech II steering wheel

Thanks!
Yes, the rims are Style 5. Two are from an E39; two are from an E34
@ Interceptor:
Bahnstormer's Angel Eyes are so f-ing cool, I'm saving up for those.
Euro trim is cool, but not important to me. Maybe next year.
White front turn signals are sittin' right next to me. Can't figure out how to install them!
Shadowline trim is an ongoing issue for me. I change my mind on the subject daily. I have the blackout tape, but haven't done it yet. I'm still on the fence about it.
IMHO, my steering wheel is way cool. I admired it since long before the car was mine. To each his own.
Thanks for the replies. Constructive criticism and suggestions along the lines of Interceptor's are appreciated.
Beautiful vehicle.
I personally like the steering wheel; just get clear sidemarkers.
Thank you.Originally Posted by Torque
Which ones are the sidemarkers, exactly? The little ones on the bumper or the bigger one next to the headlight?Originally Posted by Torque
I notice you don't have 'em![]()
The brightwork around the windows goes well with the 5's. Shadowline the brightwork and there's too much black. Euro-trim does a nice job of cleaning up the lines of the E34, it's inexpensive and easy to install. The clear turn signals are also easy to install, there are a couple of nuts that almost require you to stand on your head to reach and catch the bolt. Think of it as a character builder.
Your car looks good, very classy. Enjoy it!
