Stripes look good on F Cars and P cars but M Cars... not so much.

But hey its an easily reversible process so have fun.

I personally wouldn't have done it myself but when I never like the colored grills but when I saw how you did it, it all came together. Also it's not overstated. Looks good actually!

mjr24 · 03-19-2021, 11:09 PM

Not my style but.....come on, guys.....we've seen people with F90's slammed like it's a f*cking low-rider.

This at least looks put-together.....

I think everyone is being harsh on this. While, I wouldn't do the stripe myself, I think it is kinda cool. Also, it's really well done....

Also, ask yourselves ....what is the difference between the stripe and some of the crazy and flashy individual colors that we've seen on this forum.

It's all cool. You know why? Because there is passion for the M5....and that's why we are all here, right?

floating.spirit · 03-22-2021, 01:59 AM

Geezus, what a bunch of stodgy, though polite, dudes...it looks freakin' cool!!!

Fantastic 5 · 03-22-2021, 06:58 AM

Agreed...it does look cool and even if someone wouldn't do it themselves....you have to admit it!

Yes it's a little different but not to extreme.

What is the connection with ethnicity?

pbonsalb · 02-13-2022, 08:29 AM

Young hot hatch driver buys boring looking M5 and need to attract more attention. I also recommend the loudest exhaust possible to attract even the attention of those who aren’t looking and don’t see the stripes.

Namelss · 02-13-2022, 12:05 PM

It wouldn't work on any other color but Alpine. Something about ///M colors on Alpine White. I like the plate too.

Who cares what anyone thinks if you like it.

Greer · 02-13-2022, 12:29 PM

To Op, your car and money: enjoy it how you wish! Happy motoring out there.

JOHNBMWM5 · 02-13-2022, 01:02 PM

Sorry looks cheap.

m4h2o · 02-14-2022, 04:33 PM

Leave that for the non M cars. There's plenty of that around.

Agreed. OP it looks solid!

Who's on first · 02-15-2022, 07:11 AM

Awful.

MacLean_007 · 02-15-2022, 07:42 AM

Op, in the end it is irrelevant what we think. I would not have done this, but this is just me.
