What mods are you planning to do for the remainder of the year to your car? Now that Spring is here and Summer is close, I'm planning to:
1) Get an M-tech rear bumper, paint it jet black, and paint the rear diffuser matte black.
2) R1 Concept Sport rotors
3) M5 Mirrors (I want these so bad)
I swear it never ends. Money Pit! =P

Yeah ... the M5 mirrors will completely change the overall look ...
I got my Hartge front splitter painted and will install it sometime soon in place of my old one and maybe Multimedia input w/ front+rear camera sometime this fall.
That would be it (
yeah sure ...) ... this year ...it'll never end

These are already coming during next two weeks..
1. Replace DPF with straight pipes
2. Custom made ECU tuning @ dyno. Result should be something between 340-370hp and 700-800nm (not a real power, just diesel shit
)
And these I´m planing to do during this summer..
3. H&R Coilovers with Bilstein pumps
4. M5 Trunk spoiler
And hopefully these are coming somewhere in future
4. M5 mirrors
5. Exhaust modify, maybe quads..
6. Some good-quality and light 20" wheels with wide lip..
edit. +of course fully m5-look is always in my dreams

My Ride: Blah blahblah blahblah meh.
If someone finds a way to add some honest "boost" (I'm talking positive atmosphere people) to a N52B30 and not have it burn more than the normal 1quart every 7000 miles?! I'm there!
