My Ride: 530xi M5tech body kit/rpi exhaust/Orion V4's
Default Pics of my 530xi with M5tech body kit.

Just got back my 530xi with the M5tech body kit installed. I am really happy with the way it looks! Thank you Umnitza. Also just installed the Rpi muffler, very deep/slightly exotic tone in my opinion. Orion V4's installed as well, but they are throwing a left & right head lamp code whenever I turn on my lights, anyone know of a fix for this?

Nice and the Orions look good. In the last pic your supension looks kind of high, you may want to get a sport supension next and some wheels.

Thanks, I am going to get the M5 or M6 rep wheels when the time is right. Probably going to leave the ride height stock even though it doesn't look as nice just because the roads in MI are so crappy.

O ok, that will look sick. The roads in NY are bad also but the sport supension holds up great. You may change your mind after you get the rims if you have a big gap.

Don't get rep M6 rims. There is an obvious difference between OEM and reps. I found my set over at M5 board for $1450 shipped. Keep looking and you'll find a good deal on a set.

I am curious about the "rep" wheel quality, but with a price like $650 for all 4 its worth taking the chance. If I knew of bad reviews, or cracked wheels issues I would run from them, but I haven't seen anything yet.

Didn't even notice the "x". Reps are the only option. Good luck in your search.
