Kit and Wheels for sure. M5 mirrors would look good but super expensive for such a minor change. Never understood why the 3 got nice looking mirror standard and the 5 did not. I want to take baseball bat to those things. Would LOVE to get a set of 19" Alpinas, but not worth the 4k... I sell real estate for a living, so the look has to be somewhat clean. Most likely will get 19" OEM 172s. I gotta tell you though, I had an '01 E39 530 sport and a '07 E60 530 sport... Every time I start that 550 it puts a smile on my face...

Looks great. I noticed that there is no paddle shifter on the steering wheel. You should get them if you can.
