Hello and welcome,
We have created this site to allow the tricksters of BMW modification to display their fine work- from painted brake calipers to full navigation retrofits, this is the place to view the standing dictionary of E38 mods. You will be led, during your journey, to other sites, such as E38.org, bimmerforums.com pages, and many others. These links describe in depth how to make these mods real for your own car, with your own skills and wits.
And now, you can find them all here, in one easy, eye-candy-laden page.
So WHAT, you ask, is a modification, exactly?
YES sweet wheels, either from another BMW style, or aftermarket
YES widescreen anything
YES heated anything (where there was no heat before)
YES powdercoated engine components
YES 750il brake kits, or Brembo 4 pot, for that matter.
YES to almost anything that wasn't originally on the car. BMW's "Accessories and Retrofittings", factory approved amendments to your vehicle, M stuff, special floor mats or whatever else you are happy with having done to your ride.
NO to basic maintenance items
NO to complex engine repairs unless yielding measurable performance enhancements
NO to straight OEM replacement.
The above exclusions have their own happy homes in the BMW forum, under "Common Problems and Fixes"
AND how do you add your relevant photos, stories and links to this collection?
-Submissions can be made by email, and will be posted for you in the gallery by the administrator. Once posted, anyone can comment on the pic.
-Please remember all info- the name of your mod, the category into which it fits (see tab bar below blog title) and any info you wish to share- preferably project-related.
-The ONLY rule: you must provide at least a summary of your process (better yet a link to a thorough write-up page) so that others can benefit from learning from your ingenuity and hard work.
As always, vehicle modification is done at your own risk, and deserves the care and attention of an experienced and thoughtful individual.
