My Ride: 2010 BMW 550i M-Sport, Premium package, Cold Weather package
New (to me) 550i
hey folks been apart of the forum here for a while picking up tid bits of information until I was able to purchase my car, finally posting since this past weekend I was able acquire a 2010 550i metallic gray/ black interior with cold weather package, premium package, Navi, and M-sport.
This car is a BEAST, easily the best all around car I have driven to date. I snapped a couple crappy iPhone pics while I was out this weekend, I'll try to get better ones soon. so far I'm going for:
-30% tint all around (except windshield of course)
-changing the rims to gun metal
-black grill
-M5 spoiler (from trinity)
I also ordered LED interior lighting/ license plate lighting and rpi scoop from trinity as well (this all should keep me busy this upcoming weekend
)
unfortunately it doesn't have the paddle shifters and HUD i wanted but eh oh well still love the car so I wont miss those much I figure.
here are the pics
I also wanted to change the Halo's/ fog lights to something brighter in a color to match the trunk LED I know for that i would need orions and disassemble the headlight but i don't think i am ready to do that yet. any suggestions on some bright plug n plays for fogs/ halos?
thanks guys! and I'll post some before and after pics of the work next weekend hopefully.

Regarding HUD i would agree
Regarding SAP mmm depend how you will use this car
Even in DS this car is a BLAST so enjoy your V8 OP and we hope you got it cheaper
w/o HUD and SAP .. and you still have the best of it which is M Sport Package !
