Couple of things C....
First off, I like the mods but I have a few opinions on not making it look overblown:
1) If you have a roof spoiler, don't have a trunk spoiler.
2) If you have a trunk spoiler, don't have a roof spoiler.
In other words, having both doesn't look good. (in my opinion)
3) Don't add a front splitter. I think they make the M5 front bumper look like a fucking snow plow. Just horrible. Leave it stock with those perfect lines and not cut points or snow plow look!

The powdercoated tips are so sexy, I think. They tuck neatly under the rear when the car is off, but once the car is on and the exhaust heats up, it expands and pushes out slightly beyond the rear diffuser. I love the powdercoated look. No chrome for me.
I'm on a chrome elimination kick myself.
Your car looks great. The rear view is a tad busy.

I like both! Car looks great. Now you're really Asian! JK
Anyway, she said to me the other day, you are definitely more and more Asian every time you add something to our cars. I guess white girls just don't get it.
