Custom E46 M3 Air Jordan 1 theme

"Graffiti crew 400ML has teamed up with car modifiers iAcro to give a BMW M3 an Air Jordan makeover. The modified car is based on the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago,” with the red, white and black colorway featuring all over the car. Nike’s Swoosh also features prominently on both sides of the car, with the Jumpman logo sitting front and center on the car’s hood and windshield and a ‘Nike Air’ logo on the roof of the car. 400ML’s graffiti history is also referenced, with bullet holes and ‘melting’ paint all over. The Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” BMW will apparently be officially unveiled at Beijing The Palace Square, which runs from June 14 until June 18."

Assuming bullet holes are to add cred to the "Chicago theme". Smart.

Not digging the bullet holes. Otherwise this would be my 2 year old nephew's ideal car.

Cars, basketball shoes and bulletholes have so much in common!

I'm assuming this is a wrap, no?

I think it looks cool. The red, white, black colors play really well with each other. Makes for a dramatic scheme.

The bullet holes, or should i say, 60mm tank projectile holes, pretty much ruin the whole thing for me. Either way it's not my cup of tea, but without the bullet holes it would have a much more art/brand based feel to it. Which is cool if you're into that. Without the bullet holes, for me, it would be super cool looking, even though i'd never drive it. But interesting and artfully done. Again, if there were no bullet holes. Unless, that's just one more thing that relates it to Chicago.

Actually am genuinely interested in hearing why they/you added bullet holes.

Dude convertible means it's a high top and a low top at the same time. Avoids having to buy both.
