Mmm.. No thanx
Not into stuff like that, I prefer usual case designs. Computer isnt a car, right? =) It'd be great for BMW lovers.

Ultimate Driving Machine becomes the Ultimate Bling Machine. The headlights are reminiscent of Daimler/Rolce Royce though.

Was just at my local frys electronics and they had these "things" in my opinion flimsy and not worth the money. However they do have the bling bling factor.
Oh yes and the ones I saw at Frys had "spinners", 80mm fan in the window.
Wonder what BMW thinks about the rip off of their grill, somebody call my lawyer.

Woooo - headlights.
Give it a pair of wheels, and we'll start looking for a remote control.

Good god people, everyone knows BMWs are for yuppie posers. A true car nut wouldn't be satisfied by anything less than
a Ferrari case.

I don't know... it's not particularly pretty or good looking. If I had one I would immediately sell it on ebay.

You'd think they'll at least add windscreen with working wipers.
Are there signal lights? Do they blink according to HDD activity? Of course, most BMWs I encounter on the road here don't bother to use their signal lights anyway...

Ralf so which one of those cases are you going to get for your new pimping bling bling case.
hmmm I wonder if a pair of dubs would fit on any of those?

Don't laugh. I'll bet you a dollar that there's a case with a wing on it, somewhere out there. Start looking through the case mod galleries, maybe you'll even find one online.

No, I stay away from those places. I live in SoCal, the land of "Typre R" Rice Rockets, Low Riders, Pep Boys and dingleballs so I see enough over the top bling every day to last me for a long time.
