Well, here's my 98 BMW 540i-6. I've had her since about July of 03' and now I hate to drive my Pathfinder (even though I loved that car at the time too)

These pics are the newest. These were taken right after I got her out of the body shop to have the front and rear M5 style M5 bumpers put on. If I was to do it again, I would have gone with OEM parts.... but it still looks awesome and. The rear bumper was exactly like the real M5 rear bumper with two exhaust ports. In the next month or two (when I get some more extra money ;) ) I'm going to have a custom exhaust setup done. I'll be doing a dual muffler setup.

Here she is sitting at home.

And here's the first pic from above but without the pink trees greyed out... I like the B&W one much better.

NICE E39 540. Although I'm pretty biased. I cracked my block in my m62, but doing an engine swap and throwing some e39 M5 springs under my 540. Hopefully be back in her in a month.
