Just a quick chop I made. I think the new grille/headlights are ugly against such a flat/boring bumper, but now the front looks aggressive and classy. I've come to like the side profile, it's cleaner and has a little CS hints with the sideskirts.
Still disappointed overall though, especially with the rear design.

Wow what a world of difference from just a bumper change, very nice job and I hope BMW puts out an iS version of the 7 with a similar bumper..

That bumper job actually makes the car look desireable. Quick produce a mold for that bumper and you can sell an aftermarket bumper cover everyone will want and make millions!

This is how I wanted it to look from the start! I wanted that bumper from the CS, and you couldn't have made a better choice for the wheels! Gotta love those FL'd 6er 5 spokes.

He did do wheels. They're from the 6er.

Just touched up your chop. Made the kidneys gloss black, tints, increased the contrast between the gunmetal and the polished spokes on the wheels, made the angels brighter/less yellow, and increased the the definition of the lines through burning and dodging (sort of makes the metal look more stretched). I also made it a different color. Looks more space grey-ish.
I couldn't drop it without it looking messed up though.

Looks mean !!! I like it!
I done the drop and fixed the front side intake. It was a little out of position. How perfect is this? From that angle its better than its rivals

Nice!^
Haha, the F01 seems like it has lots of potential. Looks like tints, LUXs, blacked out kidneys, wheels and a drop will all be common mods jkjk.

Jesus it looks good.
I think you're right, the blacked out grilles help out a lot. When I was in Europe I noticed that most BMWs came with blacked out kidneys already. I found that interesting. I really do think that this could have the potential of looking better than what the competition will bring if people do some light modding.

I also hope the aftermarket vendors are taking note of this photochop lol. I think I'm gonna have to make a thread in the general BMW section so more people see this.

i don't think it looks nicer, only sportier maybe!! But the seven series is not a sport car, it's a bussines car!!!
Anyway, that's the way i see it!! I like the original very much!! |
