I think the car is a little too busy for my tastes, but your photography has come to a new level. Very nice.

The new wheels fit the car so much better than the old. It takes balls to paint over carbon fiber but I cant help but to believe this car would look so much better if the flares and sideskirts werent exposed carbon. I think the overall shape of the kit is very attractive and fits the lines of the car but the lines get cut up with the transition from paint to CF over and over again. My humble two cents. I would kill for this kit on my car painted body color.

The interior is freaking fantastic. Not a huge fan of how busy the exterior is but I appreciate how unique it is.

I've seen this ride in person, and let me just say, it will catch you eye. It may not be everyone's kind of taste, but you would have to agree it looks unique, and you probably haven't seen another one like it.

Great pics guys, looking forward to my shoot with @Lalit@AUTOcouture soon. Black & White.

Photography is amazing. IMO - There are parts of the car I love (interior). The exterior isn't my taste. Its too busy...

I would love to see this kit with those black pieces in the body color on someone's car. Overall it's a bit too busy for me as well, but I love the photography.

+2 The car is an amalgam of a lot of things. Not classy but kudos to the photographer.

You and Lalit should set something up ASAP that would be a great shoot. Hit him up I'm sure he would be just as excited about that shoot as you are!

There are some nice parts on the car but I think it looks like something out of the fast and furious if you don't
take the time to see some of the quality.

It's unique and it's what the owner likes. It has nothing but the best components used and by the looks of it, taking the time to fit everything as perfect as can be. so saying its a shit box is definitely extreme.

If it were mine the only direction I may of gone was not paint the interiors, expect for the seat backs because that looks fantastic.

Very very aggressive looking. I sure do wish they made that hood for the E90...no love out there for the sedan.

Great car OP and way to push the envelope. That's what it is all about. As long as you see it every day and it gives you a big ass grin that's all that matters.

I'm sure this is not the OPs daily (which i am certainly curious what else they got!!!). so it's even more acceptable to be on the extreme side in my opinion.

This is a public forum and people are entitled to their opinions. OP should not be offended.

Kudos on the photography again but the car is in poor taste. Essentially its a rolling abomination for everything M stands for.

My opinion- thankfully not my money.

Photos and canvas are top drawer, but not a fan of the execution. Just a collection of expensive parts thrown together without much thought, imo.

What kind of flares are those? Anyone else have them or have pics of painted ones?
