Well after a nice long look on what the internet has to offer for a 1987 528e, I decided that there was enough parts out there to make it look very sporty. Unfortunately i cant get the bekker seats i wanted because it would ruin the interiour design (everything is beige, bekker seats are black). I found a nice front spoiler and some actual nice parts @ www.kormanfastbmw.com. I am a body mechanic and can personally paint it any colors i want to, also any design so i was wondering what you would do to this car as suggestions. Please send design idea paint designs pictures or color suggestions or any opinions at all. ( I was thinking about putting an aggressive spoiler on, is that a euro car no no?) thanks!
Man... i love that car... sweeeet choice! :thumbs friend of mine has a recently repainted black (sry i dont really kno wut kind of black!) Ill try to get a pic of it and post it for u... I wouldnt go for tooo agressive of a spoiler/aerokits, just subtle stuff to make it look very balanced allaround. Good performance upgrade to start would be to chip it... not sure which brands u should look at but shop around a bit... .bavauto is a great shop u should def. look into for ur 528. Welcome to forums, and good luck with ur sweet new ride man!
Thanks, I'll keep the post updated with pictures from whatever I do to it. Im gonna get my seat re-upholstered to save some cash. Ill try to go as subtle as I can with the modifications but for colors i was thinking like a gold with white details because the interior is so cream colored and not dark.
ill play with the rest of the suggestions later... i just wish doing upgrades in real life was this easy. screw koni adjustibles... we got photoshop :laughhead:
could not add a front spoiler/bumper... tried to add the M bumper, but couldnt make it fit right so i gave up :cry also the back spoiler looked very gay. I'll do it one day when i find a nice one.
Nice job. Try some simpler rims some time.
You could probably make some $ doing this for various mods for people who are thinking about upgrading their ride.
WOW! thats talent :thumbs , i really like it... Jesus u even added new wheels! Green is a definate possiblity. Thanks for putting all this effort into it! keep them coming lol :cheers
I think the rims need to be wider to give the whole car better proportion. I would lower the suspension just a little bit for more of an aggressive stance rather than Cali low-rider theme. lol I think this car would look terrific in black with 5% limo tints and Ti350 tint on windshield.
WOW thanks still awesome pictures! i think i might go with the orange. Ill send pictures of the real bimmer 528e when i get some money and actually start body working it
