Two years for the work, $45k(not including labor Im sure) and a Civic... So grand total around $70-80k and its still not a REAL BMW. Whats the point?

Its cool, no doubt, the installs look clean, and the car looks good. But when youre trying to make it something else, and you spend just as much as the real thing(but without the AV install) it just seems a little pointless. To each his own!

I also saw a Honda accord converted into a Mercedes CLS at the HIN show in Queens. As interesting as it is, it raises the question...why?
