The first mod you should do right now would be to get your wheels, since you already have your body kit and stuff. After the wheels, we'll see how it all fits in with your car then we can think about the quads exhaust and the rear bumper. After the rear bumper then we can think about the whole kit, if the rear quads are too much for the simple front of the m-tech and maybe we can go for the more aggressive look of the M5 front.

For my fog lights, they replaced it because there are so many fine cracks on it and there were no evidence of any impact from anything so its just the quality of the plastic cover, so they replaced it for free. As for my headlamps, I'm waiting for you to get your car back so we can show them wat I mean. What interior mods are you planning to do bro? Cheers Sam, get your car back yet?

Yeah, maybe you are right, we better startup with something, No, not yet, i will have it back on Monday or tuesday so once it's back to me, i will call you and meet up somewhere to decide whether what to do first,

Interior, i would like to change my steering wheel to the wooden steering wheel and maybe something lil more and yeah offcoz the DVD interface from DOM through you and after all that maybe the subs and amps ! what do u think !
I want the Breyton's SPIRIT in 20" SILVER but TONY said it's out of stock and it's gonna take 1 month to acquire those wheels, so now the option left is only 20" Black or 172 ! or what do u think about the Nick's wheels ! i like those wheels too ! advise bro !

Man, Nick's wheels are just HOT!! If you get those it'll be perfect.. For the DVD interface you better get in on the group buy right away, Dom will start to ship soon, if he starts shipping, I dono if he'll still let you get the low price. As for other parts, we can get over here. I'm thinking of putting a Mac Mini in my car, that way I get the whole package, DVDs, Music, Internet, Computer, everything in my car. As for subs and amps, if you want, I can recommend a place for you, even better if you can just take mine off of me, i'll even install it for ya.. Sam, your car is going to look hot if you put all of those mods on there.. for sure...

Dom said sometime this week, he'll ship then i'll probably get it 2 or 3 days later. But if he starts to ship then I think you'll have to pay the original price, which is 650 + 85 shipping. If you get it now you just need to pay 570 with shipping included. Yeah if you order those parts then if you still have your bumpers left, then I can buy yours, if not then i might order a set of the M-Tech kit. Anyways, be back soon... have a good trip... c ya...

Sawasdee krub,

I just posted a new thread asking about what effect there might be on our E60s come January when the Govt here bans 95 octane and the only choice is Gasohol 95.

Thanks

Hey Ziggy, Sawasdeekrub and Yin dee ton rab (Welcome) to the Forum,
It's good to see you first of all and we are looking forward to see more and more traffic on here from our Thai freinds,

Yeah i also heard this news but if you ask me personally, i have never used 95 Octane in my 525iSE
Just normal 91 is OK for me and it's also recommended by the company, so i don't think it's gonna make any big difference for me, so what about your ride mate ! Show us some of your ride man,

CHEERS

Breyton Spirit 20" is only made in Black centered not in silver this is what the importer Tirerack told me.
the offset of 20" is made only for E46 M3 applications not for E60s.

(for me black one looks better than the silver/anthracite finish)

But why it's available in THAILAND, 20" for E60 in Silver ! Or maybe it's not of American Specs. and direct from GERMANY !
