This is as close I'll ever get to a M5. Without being raped in the ass by my insurance company. By the time I'm done it'll keep up with an M5. Still have to bring it back to the dealer for Dinan stage 2 turbo upgrade, and i have to make and appointment to install the headrest monitors, then carbon fiber rear dual exhaust diffuser, and dual pipe exhaust any suggestion? Just added Beyern 19inch rims, roof and trunk ACS spoiler, M pedals and e-brake handle, and carbon fibre mirror covers.

hmmm.. Nice looking car, but what's up with the M badge in front of the grill?


And lower it a bit.

It will never be close to an M5, w/o M5 V10 Engine. All the exterior mods are just posing to be an M5

Nice mods. You'll get no love for the M badging, though.

And an M 5 ridin on beyern mesh-nice haha. Atleast get rid of the beyern wheel hub and put your oem bmw one in there-looks terrible.

You also have an M badge on the trunk-big poser

Stick on side grilles look hideous even in the picture.

It is so clear guys like you in person and even on the net so want something they cant ever have but will so anything to get the attention of those who do have it.

Be happy with what you have a 535 is a great car. I am proud and happy to cruise in my 530 all the time. You can make it look really cool without copying an M5 and doing a poor job of it at that
