    Just so you know OP, there's an actual S50 swapped one right below this for $1000 less.

            Respect

            At first as I read some post of the above I was really upset. This is my build and despite the price I really can ask for what ever I want. The cool thing is some of the stuff mentioned is spot on. I did get Euro original tail lights and installed them as well as the proper badging. As far as the grill goes I liked it all blacked out. A grill is like 20 buck buy one you like :) The headlights they weren't cheap they were like 300 bucks and for a guy razing me about a black grill that too might be outside your budget :) and you don't like them thats fine but why tear down a sale post of someone who really loved and appreciated the build? It shows a lack in character. We should focus on being respectful as some have been and give good feedback. All the above posters have done is trash my ad. Anyways the headlights are xenon projector and I have bad night sight so I needed something better then stock. Plus you can buy stock anywhere for cheap I still might have mine. I'm wanting to get as much as I can. If you are interested in the car in place of bashing me via my thread please have the respect to shoot me a PM. I'll give you my cell and answer any questions you want.

            As far as the rear main seal. There was oil leaking from behind, it was a mill port from when they milled out the engine BMW then put an o ring in it and cap then c clip it in. That o ring was old so when the trans was dropped why swap the seal it was an 8 dollar part..

            PM me if interested!!! I've updated my pics.

                My tires are not the best. Well I don't like them that much they are Yokohama 205/50/16.

                Due to camber and me dialing in the suspension they are warn and cut up not he sides. Tires run from 100-160 not a ton.

                  This is a great looking car with a lot of the stuff people like. The mods become polarizing, so the more OEM stuff you have the more people will want it.

                  The taillights were an easy swap and I think it will help appeal to more people.

                      Night interior

                      Here is a pic of all the interior lights. Each bulb was replaced and it was a heck of a task to do.

                        is that funky glare on your steering wheel? or is that a sewing seam across the middle of the hub?

                        CAPP :-)

                                Ctebbs, it's a very nice and clean car. I agree, you can ask whatever you like and the market will dictate the sale price. This isn't a discussion thread it's a sale thread. I'd bet most the people trashing your thread are not buyers regardless of the price. GLWS!
