nice pics! what temp foglights do you have? my old Catz 6000k were lower wattage and had an awesome green-ish tint to them. my current 6000k are straight Barney purple. i think i like your color better. are they 5000k?

Funny you compliment my fogs as to your car inspired me to put HID fogs in my 7er. Luv the way your car looks btw. Oh, fogs are 6000k

BTW you really need to give me a class on taking photos! You take some awesome pics yourself!

thanks man! are those REALLY 6000k? how do they look at night? i really don't like the way mine look. they are a strange blend of pink/purple/bright white. in the pics yours look at lot more green/blue than mine. i really like that look. time for me to try a few different HID bulbs i guess!

Nice pics Ecko!!!
Have you ever thought about painting your side skirts and rear bumper? I think that would really complete the look and put you over the top. :cool

Ecko, excellent shots. How did you pull off that one that almost looks like a hand rendering? Almost looks like a drawing? It is a cool effect. I just came back from meeting ggbrands (Thanx Jim) and dropping off my Blizzaks, he has the same color and it is a very unique and very elegant color. I really like it. Got to talk Jim into new wheels to set off his car.

Thanks for the comments guys!

Immaculate: Fogs are awesome at night and I can drive around without my headlights if I wanted to. They give off a white/blueish light that doesn't look anywhere near barney gay purple like most kits do. Time will tell though as the bulbs color shifts:confused

ny-sevens:Side skirts are in the works for the car! I already bought Hamann side skirts which should arrive hopefully this week:D I'll have them painted the same color as the car to include the rear bumper. With that said, dual exhaust tips will come along. We'll see:devillook

Bear: I really don't have any photo taking skills trust me. I used PS7 with one of those filters to get that effect. Can't remember which one it was though:(

Md750/Bear: I feel In luv with the color when I first seen it! Till this day in person, I haven't seen another E38 hence BMW with it. Did see a 01 740il with the same color on ebay a couple weeks ago.
