If the owner is happy that is all that counts. But IMO I think for a flashy paint job like that you need much more flashy wheels. Having a full custom job on a car then putting somewhat stock looking wheels does not match. Nothing I really like on the car but the brakes, but hey, I'm pretty sure it can make it into DUB Magazine.

A sleeper means that it looks stock from the outside, but has a monster under the hood.

The car is OK at best IMO. The wheels has got to go for sure. I don't know why a black wheel with polished lip was not chosen to go with the theme.

The reason we name it PROJ3K SLEEPER is because we always try to look stock, but once we start the mod, we cannot stop it....

^But how were you going to make it look stock. If you lower it, put wheels on it...it's no longer a sleeper.

The only way you could've made that 6 a sleeper is to do an M6 engine swap or force induction it, while not doing anything to the exterior at all.

Maybe the owner got it to match his private jet



I like the car and the mods, but not a fan of the two tone paint.

well since everyone's already pointed out that it's not a sleeper at all. i'm just going to say that i'm not feeling it, but it's a very good effort. I'd certainly have respect for the car itself since I thin kit looks a lot better than a regular 6-series. props man.
