A bit of a clean and polish + new Hamann Grills

TBH each to their own. I added bits and bobs to suit my tastes, not to make it something it is not. I like the shark fin, at least it is not chrome. The sports bumper looks better than the stock and the alloys I like.

It has nothing to do with affording to keep it, or run it. It is more about the practicality of owning such a car. I have residents parking here and this is a right PITA to park most days. Plus I am tootling around town most days, this is not what the car was deisgned for.

I did go straight from the BMW dealers to the SMART dealer (opposite) and had a play with the roadster and Fourtwo. I really like both.

The 5 is an utterly awesome car, and it is perfect in almost every way. Fast, smooth, comfortable and has tonnes of toys. It will be a sad day when she goes, but I aspired to own one, and I have done that. Time to move on.
 
Not too sure on the front grille, but rest looks good. Keep hearing good things about using clay bar, so got one coming Monday :)
 
Not intended at all my friend , I didnt post in the thread your on about with your badge and for them to go into your personal life is beyound a joke as thats stupid and I was making a general comment about what everyone is saying about bumpers , lights , steering wheel and wheels so dont take it personally which I didnt think you would as your bigger than that

As for the thing of getting a smart car steve your to tall for one unless you get one with the roof that folds back - you need something like a S2000 lol

I have the original chrome ones in the boot, and the clay bar is amazing. It is true what you read about them!

Looks great, especially the grille and wheels. Would be interesting to see what it would like with colour coded rub strips.

I posted a while back about colour coding them, the general consensus was it was a bad idea.

The mods have stopped now, no point in continuing.

I know what you mean, I had trouble in the roadster, the fourtwo was great though, really roomy.

I will go back on Monday when somebody is there, so I can take a test drive :-)
 
I for one love the wheels :D if you do decide to keep it tho get the rear celis, I to am not so keen on the rear sport bumper and exhaust sticking out of it.
