Since I decided to look around for 5 series BMWs, Ive signed up to the site and been reading many interesting posts and talking with lots of people about their cars and mods etc.

Last weekend I picked up my very own 535D M Sport, 2006 with 40k miles;











I used to own a 318, but it was nothing compare to this beast.
  • Xeon Headlights,
  • Angel Eyes
  • Adaptive Headlights
  • Heated Electric Memory Seats,
  • Extended Interior Light Package
  • Sat Nav (Pro) and iDrive
  • Adaptive Steering

So, I really wanted to say hi and introduce myself

I would love to get it remapped, but need to save now. DMS would be my preferred option, but dont have that sort of money around, so may need to consider evolve.

If anyone has any thoughts/comments/suggested must do mods on the above, please shout!

Adam

Welcome Car looks great and the 535d sure is a beast even without a remap ! Get a map and you'll be on another level

The car was already debadged.
I had considered the grill, but slightly undecided on the colour.

As my car is Carbon Black and not a pure black, im undecided between a 'shadow black' or dull black grill. Shadow black looks best, but might stand out to be too much of a different colour against the rest of the car?;

Shadow Black;



Dull Black:



any thoughts?
