Keep the chrome kidney grills. The black aftermarkets always look out of place in my opinion.
100%
Look cheap and out of place.
Nah
Agreed, I saw an Imola red one with black grills and it looked awful
I mean the chrome ones don’t look too bad, definitely better than aftermarket, but I like the kidneys from the 5series base model better with black bars and chrome outer ring
Holy sh******t
Whata beautiful car that is and look at those new re-upholstered seats !!!
My car originally was muffler deleted, put a Supersprint exhaust on it, headers all the way back. Awesome sounding.
VIDEOS ARE SO GOOD! Very informative and helpful to M5 owners!
THANK YOU!
You need to address the red release button on the seatbelts. It will make a huge difference. Apply Gtechniq C4 with a Q tip and they will look brand new. I've done it on my e39 m5 and on my e38. Trust me on this one.
Great build in the end ! 👍 many more smiles per gallon ✊
Glad that you kept it pre LCI. Right choice in my opinion.
My favorite M3 keep it original Great Build keep up the good work
Regarding the kidney grills, you can get original BMW grills with black slats, just got some for mine and looks much better than the chrome slats.
Love the red inserts in the seats.
Beautiful car! Keep the pre face. I’m doing the same. Love the period correct cars!
This car is my dream!
Love, love, LOVE the pre-facelift lights!!
The red seats, not so much...
You should get the prefacelift chrome grills
Great car. Have a clone of that one minus the red interior. BZ95721, FEB '00. 354 Tiag also.
Great video. Love it!
This looks fantastic! Maybe do a vid on that e46 M one day.
Great job !! I put the same cup holder in my M5 and love it.
Congrats! With this mileage and all the deferred maintenance, I’m surprised you didn’t do Vanos and RB…
Vanos was already done by a previous owner. Rod bearings are not that big of an issue with these cars
What's the upholstery shop you used?
Beautiful car! Very nice out come
Excellent work !
You should do the leather inserts on the doors in red
very nice M5,
for your headlights, look for TYC headlight lenses, they don't have all that ugly writing on them and since they are pre facelift, they can be changed very quick.
? The driver side fender&
Back quarter panel looks extremely elementary! Was Body work done to the driver side?
Nice work. Not a fan of the red seats but still looks good.
Nice car.nice m5
great job!!!
Thanks for saving this beast. Looks great! What’s story on e46 in driveway?
Looks good.
Try nice, I have the mundane Carbon Black sibling of your car. It is a daily city driver. These are wonderful cars for every situation. Except passing petrol stations.
Great car!
Are those seat covers from Lseat?
Wow!! Looks great 😍😍
Keep it OEM pre-facelift, only going up in value as an original.
Where is this car at now?
Trailer control module dear friend can you help me
My e39 2002
Everyday abs and traction lights come on when i hit hard break

If you want to trade your gray instrument cluster for my black one out of my 2000 E39 M5 I'd be happy to make the trade!
Get Chrom Turninglights bulps.

I love black and red seats but idk, I dont think it looks good with the color of the car. I also have a titanium silver M5 ('03). But the seats came with the black and gray combo. Royal blue and black would like nice too with Titanium Silver
Edit: Ive also done a muffler delete on mine it got old real quick. It was nice because it was louder but the exhaust wasnt really refined. Bought a Corsa exhaust and never been disappointed for 7 years. Idk what Corsa did but its quiet when under normal throttle. But when in WOT, it screams nicely. Eventually, I want to get around fabbing some headers, and I dont plan on supercharging it either but the extra HP is always nice lmao
Yeah the opinions are divided. I will say the red looks very bright on camera and is darker in person
Would you be willing to sell those face-lift taillights since you're not going to use them?
You have a gap between the headlight and the fender, is that because of the aftermarket lights or not installed all the way in?
Aftermarket probably. Headlights are fully seated
What upholstery shop did you use. I’m trying to find a place to send my seats now. I’m restoring a 2000 also. Thx!
The place is located in Austin, TX called Leather Replacement
@@newton22 Thank you Sir! I will call them in the morning!
@@newton22 What did they charge you to do the front and rear seats if you mind me asking?
Maybe restore the original headlights?
The car never came with the original lenses. The headlight assembly itself is OEM
just wondering i have a 2003 530i and i dont have the beep on startup is that supposed to be or is it broken/ coded to turn off
The bongs? It's probably coded off, or your gong speaker (located in pedal box ceiling) is either missing or broken.
Hi e39 m 5 good.
Seats look good as far as stitching/pattern however I’m not a fan of the smooth leather look…something with more grain would have been a little more period correct. I know I’m splitting hairs, my .02….beautiful car nonetheless.
Your car and enthusiasm deserve OEM headlights, side mirrors and anything else you shortcutted. Do it before NLA.
I agree. My wallet doesn't lol. It's all already NLA which explains the ridiculous prices
Is 10 mil dollars the cars no
Hate the mirrors. Spend the money and put the original, the blue mirrors look cheap. The red seat inserts look cheap. The leather grain is wrong. I don’t get why you would spend all this money to cut corners.
I have your cars doppelgänger.
