Welcome to my 528i page!

echyballs's 1996 BMW 5-Series

This 1996 E39 528i started out in life just like every other 528i in its era. Until I got my hands on it, it still had 14" wheels, old fashioned head lights, classic bumper bar which looked a bit like a old man's car. Even though I'm not a rich person, but this was my first car and I was determined to give this baby what I believe it deserves, a dignified retirement and also to fulfill my high school dreams of owning a E39 M5. I know this is a 528i but for me its one step closer to my dream until I get a proper job and make some serious money!

Clypsal is the color, and I love it! The other car is a MB E class which belong to my dear friend Conrade.

Picture of the rear end, its not that interesting apart from an aggressive view of the 9.5" wide rear wheels.. one day it shall have a m5 back but I will never be fake enough to put a m5 badge on it..

Cruising on the freeway with 30 other cars...

This Clypsal color looks best under sun or twilight I believe! Friend's rx7 in the background, he eat me on speed but I kill him on style!

What the front looks like before I got some 6000k HID professionally installed by a auto electrician!

On the way to Sydney from Melbourne, I stopped on the side of the freeway to take a piss and spotted this perfect photo opportunity!

The amber color is so easy on the eyes...mmmm... I like it!

2 X 12" Pioneers and 800W amp, its not top of the range but it does the trick!

My HID Video in Youtube

More pictures will come in the not too distant future, and im I've got heaps of videos but its in Mac format which I cant convert which is mega pain in the ass but check back soon and I will have them. Meanwhile, leave me a comment and let me know what you think! If you have any questions about upgrading your headlight and rear light with genuine BMW lights then let me know I can give you some tips of what parts to buy so you wont have to spend money you don't have to. thanks!JBMJBM IS ALSO MY ACCOUNT..
