Mods for the new 7

G'Day Guys,

Long time since I have been in here! I used to steer a white E34 M5 came to a couple of DTM Power days in it.
Well I have just sat myself in a E38 740iL and wondering what mods you guys have done or know of that are worth looking at ??
Thanx for your feedback in advance

heya mate,

That looks exactly like what I am aiming for. I have just ordered a set of 20's for the car. (20x8.5)
Have you put a body kit on it or just done a complete white out ?
How did you go about lowering the car ?
What size rubber and did you have to roll the guards ?
Where did you get the clear light set ?

Thanx

E38740iL

Yep, I love that kit too. But where can I find it? anyone have a clue? I really want to lower the car but I think I won't be able to go on the roads in Vietnam.

I have this car in Vietnam. If I got it in Australia then I would drive it to Chapel St in melbourne every weekend mates.

And the exhaust too, Oh my god, I would love to drive a loud ass 760Li.

It's got BMW 20" and white leather everywhere in the car even the ceiling, Black woodtrim, and Alpine DVD and sound system, 2 screens at the back.

I reved this thing at its limit a few times. But shit, I forgot to switch off the Stability control and the car still wanted to spin wheel. I think If i turned it off then, it'd spin non-stop.

I love this car, just one thing is It's too luxury, it focuses on the rear passengers more than the front cos, normally people have this car got a driver too.

I'll try to get some more pixs.
