Next up....white seat belts Then a new steering wheel and then I'm pretty much done with interior. Although wheel will probably be addressed after I finish up bulk mod work on the 745Li.

horizontal seams would cut the amount and effect of diamonds per sectional and disrupt the flow of the shape. We'd have to remeasure the diamonds to make sure tips end at each line, but then you'd have a horizontal line cutting across every other diamond which totally ruins the effect of the diamond.

you could've had just one horizontal seam near the top where the white gets thinner to break it up slightly. still looks amazing though.

seats look awesome, but one question on something I noticed on your interior, might have been answered in another thread, but where did you get the carbon fiber interior trim?

Here it is right now. Half authentic AC Schnitzer kit and ripping out the replica AC Schnitzer parts (front and rear bumper). Dropped on Eibach springs and rolling on 22" Lowenharts.



Was going to replace the replicas with authentic ones, but I just secured sponsorship with Prior Design in Germany so they'll be supplying me with their kit.

End result kit will look more like this (probably gonna skip the quarter panel as I'm not really feeling it). These are stock photos:

All your work looks great, as always.

I'll be the first to say it, I agree with you on the quarter panel call. Looks eerily (sp?) like the 63 quarter panel. The rest of the kit goes well with the 7. Good luck on everything.

Thats pretty clean. I had a full ac schnitzer mini full bodykit, ac exhaust, springs, it was an ac show car for this autosound company called al&eds. Enjoy it! And I hope to see more of your projects.. Will you be putting everything up on cardomain as end results?

I went to the Remix show, I should have said hello... BTW thanks to your friend John for doing the remotes.

The interior is looking awesome...only bad part is that it seemed EVERYONE was rocking the same diamond pattern interiors at the show!

Amazing! It really works with the theme. I just found an interior guy who started his own business after leaving a High End audio shop. He did some work for a friends show car and now I have the itch. Thanks Michael.
