Appreciate your 'It's mine and I like it comment..' but this is PH so I'll have 2p 
For I'd raise the suspension 20mm
Put OE front headlights in
Remove all the stickers under the bonnet
Put the engine cover back to standard
Get proper legal plates from a dealer
Then to me it'd be a fine car.
As it is I'm a bit meh about it.
On the plus side it's a great left-field choice.

I'm not fond of this new trend in wheels where people fit huge ones with little rubber bands stretched round them for tyres. Apart from that the rest doesn't look too bad to my eyes. Anyway you don't have to look at it when you're driving it, and as it's a BMW you'd want to drive it as much as poss!
Editited as the brain cell that does my spellchecking doesn't kick in that early in the morning.

Not keen on how low the back is sitting but that could be due to the other side being on the kerb or the headlights as I think the standard items look much nicer.
Looks like a rather tidy motor though, just not really my cup of tea.
it is indeed lower due to the rear back wheel sitting on the kerb...... i took the pics for him ;-) once level the car sits pretty much perfectly square ;-) not bad when you think its done 155,000 miles ;-)Looks like a rather tidy motor though, just not really my cup of tea.
Thanks again for the love... Must admit the decals under the bonnet are a bit 90s, but that's just my era! Maybe time to get rid??? In answer to an earlier Q, no the tourers didn't have self levelling, it was only a few rare alpinas that did... And as for bling? Not sure about that... Kinda took some ideas from the euro VAG boys... Well that was the idea anyway. And no at the time of the photos the osf indicator wasn't in properly but it is now! The whole number plate issue is interesting, the number was on it when I bought it, and the german plates make plod confused... Happy days! Any more thoughts welcomed, good or bad it's up to you lot! Car will be at gaydon in the show and shine if you wanna know more then come and find me. 15th aug 2010
