My Inspiration...
Years ago when I got my E38 and it was completely stock, I had found a picture that I wanted my E38 to aspire to. I think I'm almost there...
My inspiration..
Only thing I am missing is Air...

Hardeep if you are planning on lowering, don't go as low as the one in the pic, reduce the fender gap, but don't tuck

I love Alpina pinstriping, the real ones are pretty expensive & hard to put on

Well I am already lowered on Bilsteins and H&R's which has reduced the fender gap considerably, but I am looking to lay frame when parked.

Dyaaam that looks hot... I've always loved the E38 (and wanted one on air as well) but would never buy one cuz that 4.0L V8 is probably a killer on gas... even when gas was $0.60 something a liter
