You can tramp drift anything thats rwd Brian

Last night saw the first 'mods' to the car. All the rear seats, carpets, rear door cards, wadding, speakers and parcel shelf were removed.
Sound deadening will be scraped off this weekend (joy )
Wheels are going black this weekend

Pics to follow one night this week

We reckon the stuff we've taken out probably weighed around 75kg

Note side exit exhaust, air filter out the bonnet and (cant see in that pic) no interior. Loverly. He struggled a bit with it for the weekend though. Dont know if it was car or driver at fault.

Grill looks mean, you didn't de-chrome the rear lights

Lose the 525i badge

Get rid of that nasty gold pinstripe too

Maybe a small scoop for the air filter ???


Looking much better, very stealthy

I tried to remove the lights to paint them but they just wouldn't budge. They'll be de-chromed soon enough.

Warren likes the pinstripe and badge

I bet an oil and filter change wouldn't go amiss either.
