tasteful mods

i see a lot of modded cars on this forum and some people have a very good taste,, others, not so much. I'm all into modding cars but I feel like a BMW is such a classic car that you have to be very delicate with what you do to your car. I've seem some amazing cars with replica or OEM parts that looks amazing (non car people would not even realize that the car was modded), other cars have very obvious after market parts that are approaching the "fast and the furious" look or the "hood car on dubs" look. what do you guys think?

If you're going for the classy then I would suggest kidney grills, window trim to start off, color matched side reflectors, maybe a tint, maybe a drop. Then a mtech.

I think you are opening a can of worms that has been discussed here ad nauseum.

The general consensus is do what makes you feel good and don't worry about what everybody else thinks. That covers about 98% of all mods. There are some outliers sadly. To start with "taste" is subjective at best.
