Is it just me or does the panel gap at the bottom of the door look massive ? - looks like this pickup is banana shaped 8O

Not really a fan sorry

I think they look ok and would like to build one.
This one has air suspension so can go lower than this.

Depends who did the work and the quality, some of them look cool. Some of them look like the builder should go to specsavers.

It's nice to have big flashy chrome wheels, but not if they expose the crusty drums behind them!

THATS what they remind me of! It's the quad headlights. The E30 style is more aggressive though, and that one with the flared arches would be the best if it wasn't for the homosexual paintjob.

I quite like the look of the last one with the 7 Series E32 rears :mad:
Previously owned loads of old E30s, E34s, a few E36s, E32s, E39s and an E38.

Currently in a diesel Audi - miss me old E30's....
