They only plans ive got for it now are to have a nice chrome twin pipe exhaust system on it, the same size bore as the standard one but with some nice chrome tips on.
Do you have any more suggestions?

Flat battery?
What about an M-tech II body kit? Genuine ones are pricey, but really look the nuts IMO
Get some more pics up mate. Interior?
Car looks lovely.

Looks lovely. Red as well. I recon loose the spoiler and some 15" BBS's will look nice or 16" Alpina's.

Does that mean a tech II kit won't fit?

And me, though if you had a Tech 1 it would look a cleaner line.
Just my opinion

+1 Spoiler on a cab looks wrong. They are for black Tech2 Sports.

BTW I also think the chrome is just sooo RIGHT! Dont Tech 1 or 2 kit it!

The spoiler is spoiling the look. I think keep it as is body style wise. the reps do not work with that colour and i would say go for some nice BBs / borberts rims over the Alpina style.
Also maybe a chrome horseshoe liek cliffybabe has would look good.
this car is screaming for chrome and polished metal , I think it will ruin it using a tech kit ect.

have a custom stainless exhaust build or just a back box build to your spec... so it looks standard but with a slightly bigger bore..

^ BMW supply chrome tips for the standard exhausts
Nice car btw.
If you do buy a tech1/2 kit make sure you get a cab specific kit as the side skirts are different.(deeper)

Looks nice mate, only suggestions would be remove the spoiler and leave it with out one and maybe a set of bbs's. In my opinion the chrome cabs look at lot better dropped and on 15 inch bbs.
