Naj's LeMans Blue '02 E39 M5

[Naj]

Update**** 14-2-11

So car is back with me.. painting the instrument cluster back to the original matt black as one of the previous owners had it blue!!! Yuck! Also smoking my rear lights..

More pics tomorrow. Will pass by Das for the fan which is F**king loud and I hear a small noise coming from the Left vanos next to the powersteering reseviour.. on idle it sounds like a large mouse, constant noise..

Here are some teaser pics.. Car will go for steam wash tomorrow and will need some more love later this month..

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

that car deserved all these (except red thing :D)

good going, keep it up bro

where are you steam washing your heart... might want to do the same to my e30 M3 ASAP. it's worth it after the major changes that it's gone through :drool:

[Naj]

Wheeeeel2Wheeeel barsha..

[eoudeh]

nice work naj

Looks great Naj! I disagree with you guys but I love the TopRot engine cover!

But dude, you've went through so much trouble in painting and foiling except you forgot one thing. That AWFUL puke-Brown looking thing called an overflow tank sitting on your radiator, matt Black is as soon as possible!

Car is washed..

Issues: Thermostat, speed sensors, fan clutch and maybe more..

Painted the tail lights, little too dark, gonna redo them next week or so

Also noticed slight paint removed from the trunk on the rhs.. will need to paint the trunk partially.. CRAP!

I just saw the car at Das.

Looks very sharp. What tyres are you running.

[Naj]

They are Dunflops! haha

[Hasan Shaikh]

They are Dunflops! haha

:lol:

but they are narrover then stock ones which makes them look better (265 instead of 275 i suppose)

that is a small trick which can only be known by a real e39 m5 enthusiast... personified in this case,
Mr. Simon XXX

Mr Hassan.. thanx for the props :)

Well you are right.. Those are 265's instead of 275's on the rear and 235's instead of 245's in the front.. i HATE it when tyres look like like baloons... BTW, no worries it is specified by BMW and can be driven like that :)

[Simon Motorsport]

BTW hassan... called you 10000000000000000000000000 Times.. Are you in Turkey?

[Naj]

Simon fudge off this is my showroom thread, we dont care that you cant reach Hassan!
