New Mod: GTR carbon fiber hood!
I really wanted to make my e70 look like many e46 M3s and finally got around to having a custom hood fabricated with GTR vents. Just got it back from the body shop, and they matched the paint perfectly! Check it out:



































hahahahahaha!!! Just kidding!

My friend and I were just fooling around with his vinyl sticker machine. He made the 'vents' out of 'carbon fiber look' vinyl and put it on clear cling vinyl. Took all of 1 sec to put it on and even faster to take it off.

We also put them on his Honda Pilot:



just messing with you guys.....

I was going to say:

"All you need now is a wing and gull-wing doors and you're officially the first ricer E70 I've seen"

I think vents would look nice on the X, but you would have to heavily modify other parts of the truck first. ie. widebody, 22" rims, etc.

wow! glad it was a joke, as it looked terrible on your hot X5.

You MUST, however, leave it on the Pilot.
