    What else can I do to my E34?

    For context:








    I'm replacing rear bumper on Saturday (mount failed at high speeds and bend it). But other than that I don't know what's left?

    I want to powder coat some engine bay parts but will be stuck after that. I know there are rear spoilers and wings (that usually rust kthnx no). Eye brows... anything else that I'm missing?

    I was at Bimmerfest and the judges did not seem to even know what they were looking at. Did not know how rare my BBS wheels are but were circle jerking some replicas on run off the road E46 setups.

    You painted that car in your apartment, correct?

    Honestly, I love it as it. It's exceptional as is.

    BFest judges only know about bags and Turner bolt ons.

      Looks great. Doesn´t look like there is much else for you to do.

            Clear turn signals and fogs. Nothing else.

              Presuming he's a guy.......
              He's stood by it and touched his wiener
              Changed the oil and touched his wiener
              Washed/waxed it and touched his wiener
              Talks to his friends about it and touched his wiener (non bmw owners wouldn't understand why)
              I'd hope he's already sat in it and touched his wiener!!

                    I would put gold alpina type lines on it. Another thing I would do is simply drive it more often :D

                        Install bullet nose studs instead of lugs

                          Since he´s already touched his Wiener, perhaps it is more appropriate that anyone seeing this car touch his Wiener. And to show that we aren´t gender biased, ladies, you can touch your Clams.

                            I have brand new M5 brakes on all four corners with zimmerman rotors. Braking is pretty good for amount of power I'm putting down. Movit is pretty rare to find now, no?



                            Not sure if I want to drop 2K+ on BBK just for the looks to be honest

                              Yeah, probably not a wise $ move then. I was under the presumption you were full stock.

                              Neither setup is cheap or easy to source.
