    I feel like auto-xing this 5 series.

    Yay or nay?

    IMO, yes. They look very clunky and unbalanced. I, for one, kind of like stickers on cars...if they're well done and not over the top.

    My rules for stickers are:

    1. Keep them balanced.
    2. Keep them a reasonable size.
    3. Always try to get vinyl cut stickers (not sure if that's the right term?). Solid ones are fine if they're small, like the Blunttech ones.

    So, for the stickers you have, what I would do is: Put Blunttech ones in that rear window thingy but at the bottom right corner (if you're facing the driver's side). I would ditch the "My other car is an E30" one. Ditch the H&R one. Move the NWBMWClub one to the top middle of the rear window.

    Just my opinion, though.

    I still don't get your logic of getting rid of the e30

    Toes, keep it subtle man. Trust me. The E34 looks best when it's got modest exterior upgrades and engine upgrades.

    Whatchu doing to it today?

    ^ I like your avatar bro. : )

    Buddy has vogtland springs with bilsteins on his e34 and the car handles great, and with a lip it give it that l;ow look, even though it isn't slammed.

    Car looks clean, goodluck.

    Mind you I'm also against slammed cars as daily's as well.

    I'll bite my tongue on the VIP low guys, but this is a freaking automatic 525i E34, it should be comfy and have some ground clearance.

    Battle wagon for the win. Stickers are for 5 year olds.

    You're selling the E30 and replacing with E34 because you wanted a 24v. I think you're doing it wrong. Also, have you noticed how slow it is? :) Best of luck though, I'll stay tuned for sure.

    But yeah gas shock bilsteins come with a lifetime warranty so those sound good to me.

    Remove stickers, get smaller wheels if you must, and spend 2 years doing all the maintenance and driving the car.

    That last part I have found is very useful. I have daily driven many projects, if driven and fixes taken place when they come up over 2 years, the car is typically one of the most reliable out there. So long as you dont cut corners and buy cheap aftermarket parts (chip).

    Look at this as a second chance.
