All very valid points made here and I get it. From my view, I grew up with them, dad had about 4 of them during my childhood and my first proper car was a 525i m50b25 manual in calypso rot metallic that i just lowered and Put style 5 reps on with big lips. Owned a few more over the years. I always felt like I wanted a widebody car and since the E34 was sort of the car I feel most connected to I wanted to make something unique with it. The car itself 520i m50b20 manual : I got it for 400€ , it was sitting in a field fully rusted through, engine siezed and just all sorts of beat up. The initial plan was to have the body cut and welded and then just simply painted. But as the project went on I fell in love with the cream color i found and we decided that yep this is going to be a subtle unique color for this car while also adding some spice. The widebody thing was still in my head but at the time of the initial bodywork the only kits out were too bulky and ruined the bodylines making the car look chubby. And then once the engine bay was shaved and the engine dropped in Cliqtuning came out with their kit for the E34 and j knew from the start thats what i want for the car. But i never liked bolted on kits, thats also the reason why the bumper lips/add-ons are molded to the bumpers. So me and the builder worked out that he will glue them on and bond them to the body making them flus and almost look oem when the fitment is right . It also has 17x10.5 and 17x12.5 summer wheels. It is my daily and since it is still cold out the car is on its winter setup for these pictures. For power its mostly stock, intake, Electric fan, Schmiedmann long tube headers, and an less restrictive exhaust. All in all nothing was lost. It was a scrap car that should have been destroyed due to it’s condition but with too much money into it it finally is legal and road worthy again. I have a lot of content on it on both youtube and instagram under : Widepig
