My Euro E28 - Little Update

[RainierHooker]

I love it. The 5's look great, and I'm sure the RSes are stunning too...

Thanks for the compliments guys, it is a 525e not an M5, but was an M-Tech car so had the badges. I have de-badged the rear, just have not got around to doing the front, does not bother me that much. It is an actual Euro car so not a conversion, while the bumpers, especially the front, appear to sag in photos, it looks perfect in person. The exhaust is a magnaflow heavy metal cat to a straight pipe, sounds good, will get a sound clip at some point.

damn, another nice e28 in atlanta!

are those 16" bbs? i would assume that the car would drive better with 16 than 17. Mine had the sytle 5's when i got it so i dont know the difference. I will say that my steering is pretty heavy.

I dont mind so much since she is really just a cruiser to me. When i want to go fast quickly i roll in the e30....

we should get our cars together for a shoot sometime...

Yep, 16x8 et-4 effectively on my car. Made a very nice difference, it was certainly livable on the 5's however. I am down for a shoot, just let me know.

I love it. The 5's look great, and I'm sure the RSes are stunning too...

I am looking forward to the RS's, looks better IMO.

Not just for show

Not quite threadworthy, but here are some photos from the Auto-X this weekend on the new wheels. Will get some actual pictures of the RS's at some point, thanks to Shawn and Halston for the shots.

wow that looks good. looks like the muffler has been replaced with just plain ol' pipe, how does it sound? (youtube link?)

Finally got around to doing a video :D

Had posted the car up before and a few people had asked about how the exhaust sounds, had some time to kill tonight and made a quick video. It was shot with a cheap point and shoot, so quality is pretty poor.

Right now the exhaust is a 2" straight pipe with a gutted magnaflow cat to dual 3" tips. Had to gut the cat after it clogged, plan to add a muffler in its place at some point. Yes, it is a slow car with a loud exhaust. It is actually relatively quiet in the car with the windows up, but is pretty damn loud outside of it. Enjoy.

Couple pictures out back for reference:

Before painting black:






Car is on RSes right now, just don't have any current photos of the rear. "

Actually, it is illegal to get official statistics (as in an official census) about people's religion in France, so nobody is actually sure for certain.

This car started out really nice and it's getting worse and worse. How long before you r3v it, rust it and chop the top?

This, and, you spent all that money, but didn't buy new windshield locking strips to replace the brown faded ones. Lame.

The car was never that nice to begin with, and the window locking strips have been refreshed since those photos were taken. ;-)
