I saw this for the first time at Gaydon and damn does it have presence. Love the car, especially the wheels I think, they look insane!

[gaza01]

I knew you'd smack it bro! Vision is domething u have! Looks gorgeous!!!

[old grey steve]

You've made some brave decisions Sumil re what you've done. Purists will of course argue but in an age wher so many of these car are now being neglected this is one car that's turned this common trait on its head.

I for one love to see these older cars on thevroad we see a few in fir servicing and it's good to see them out and about.

Re whst you've done with yours IMO it's a brave shout but one that with the detailing applied seems to gel so well.

The bonnets the first thing that struck me, very individual, front bumper as you've stated mirrors your past E92 and is something I've done with my current E92 and my previous E46, the rear boot lid looks subtle and suits the car rather well, correct me if I'm wrong but was it a complete CSL boot lid or did you buy a CSL spoiler and graft it on to the OEM boot lid like I did with my E46?

As for the wheels

Modding is a very individual thing and this is as individual as they come and I love it

[Ess]

Saw this at Gaydon the other day. Big respect. I can't believe how fast you turned this around, it only feels like a few months ago you finished the e92!

[bytejunkie]

dont comment on build threads often, but i love everything you've done to this car. especially the head lights. you done that yourself or been working with NEM? theyve got some wacky lamps on show on instagram.

I do genuinely love the sleekness of this. It's my kind of modding where apart from the rims, the other mods are quite subtle and genuinely don't look out of the place from a genuine BMW variant. Nice one and glad you made it to the show lol.

[mob17]

Love it. You've succesfully modernised the car. Very sleek. Im suprised at myself that i like the red wheels.

[AWBimmer]

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!

Fav part has to be the Dome and then wheels. I just love how GANGSTER an e39 can look with the right mods man. Some serious love for this and once again a vision which you have accomplished. Hats off once again!!

full return? wasn't looking for an ROI but for less than 3k to buy this car with full electric leathers/heated/nav and an awesome engine im very pleased! everything else is just personal touches

the unique front bumper is a work of art. love the body work

the rims are just ridiculous - i want them NOW!! lol. radinox rims are beautiful too buddy

love the rgb angels too - where did you source them ... fancy having a go with my new motor?

whats the plan for the calipers (champagne perhaps?) and exhaust? hehe

haha thanks so much bro
the Radinox dishes really set the wheels off and they are so easy to maintain!
the lights are just red bulbs i sourced and do the trick! calipers are in a deep custom gold to match the bolts and exhaust - i sent you a vid clip

wow thanks for the awesome feedback/comments
it was a lot of work and as Shaun stated it was all vision at first as i wanted to create that bonnet/bumper as i havent seen one like them yet
the bootlid is exactly how you said, seperate spoiler and graft

subtle it what i was going for body wise, which is why i went a little loud on the wheels to bring it out there and they certainly attract attention lol
was touch and go making it to the show but got there in the end haha!

#winning lol, i honestly had no idea what other colour to do them and thought hey, strawberries go with Champagne - red it is!

[Jimmy-F46 M-sport]

I've always loved the E39, I think they are the meanest looking BMW to date and this one takes it too the next level 👍 Absolutely fantastic work bud

[Jamie_E92]

Wow , this is an amazing build mate, you should be very proud! An excellent base aswell being a champagne.

Also, how much of a cnut is that Icekube guy? He's been on here since i used to have my e92 & trolled everyone's posts with his over opinionated posts, must live a pretty dull & soulless existence.

[AirAndre335i]

F*** ME!

Shit looks hawt!

Great find and great finish! That interior looks so nice!
Powerdome looks gd!!! If it looks gd in pictures it would probably look better in person!

Your personal touches and ideas have come together very well!

When is the V10 Transplant happening

[AWBimmer]
