I'm sure there was a 5series on trampdrift with a very similar colour and 9" borbets awhile ago, looked alright. You should go for it!

We had a matt black track car. Thought it was a good idea but never looks the same as when its fresh. Scratches are easy to sort out tho!
Call me on 07858 151 197 - leave a message if no answer as i am probably busy! Will call you back!
Please email thru the website as not always on the zone for pm's.

Albinojay how did you do that! I've tried in photoshop but never got amazing results. How do you get the reflection to show so well?

lol it is meant to be matt but I can't get the effect in photoshop. I'm turd at PS,

As for the cheapo wheels and mtec bollocks. Dude it's a fucking trampdrifter. I aint spending no dollar on it.

The paint will cost me say £20 for 5 litres which a mate will go halves on so he can paint his volvo 340 drifter too lol.

didnt see the soarer in Fast car, I don't read crap like that tbh. My mate however did have a nato green 5 series which was hard as nails.

As for the reflections all I did was highlight what I wanted to change colours then adjusted the hue/saturation etc and it keeps the original reflections there. I also made the colour up myself so true nato green probably is a bit greener.

i think it's going to happen tbh, thought most of you zoners wouldve said boooo no keep it standard :mad:

I might go to halfrauds and buy some stick on neons, some phat 19" amir khans and I dunno some chrome effect floor matts? what do yas reckon to that blud brapppppp

Would look very sweet in my opinion, especially with a few rough stencils. That lip extension is LOW! I wonder how long you'll manage to keep it...
