When Carl first saw this BMW E39 525d a few years back it was love at first sight. The car was stock and black but he had to pick it up. He drove it around for a few years with a few simple mods but recently decided for a full refresh including a conversion to white paint.
You'll see that this car is perfectly finished. The paint is as smooth as a baby's skin, the custom made carbon parts look like they are factory built by BMW itself.
Carl deserves loads of respect in the Belgian scene driving this car. I wish every modded car I get to shoot was as perfectly finished like this one!
Yes, this is custom work! Looks like factory new!
Carbon on white: absolutely perfect.
Livin' it large with OZ Futura 3piece wheels...
12x18 at the rear and 10x18 in the front; The fenders needed to be extented to cover the rims.
I just love the look of this car, its so fresh and clean.
The riding hight is well balanced, Carl can make full U-turns and the 12x18 and 10x18 never hit the fenders.
For the guys who are going to say 'show but no go'... Carl has planned some performance/engine works this winter.
Same on the inside, perfect finish. Black leather with white deco strips.
I hope Carl has some gloves so he doesn't mess up the steering wheel...
