I'm bored. I have the M Aero Kit, 15% tint, Radenrgie R-10's, and red brake calipers.
Am I done with cosmetic mods?
Any suggestions? Feeling like I want more, but I think it looks finished.
would more lessen the classy/ fast look I've got?
Help!

It looks great! How about replacing the headlamps with Euro style clear turn signals?

agree on all (quads m5 mirrors etc) and maybe black grills, roof spoiler which look you want to have mate, the classy dynamic, or race?
once you are 100% sure what you want from your baby you will know the right thing to do. U have a beauty but if you cannot rest...

ps. this is the M5 trunk lid finisher like

Two quick and fairly cheap mods would be to get the white angel eye bulbs from any company like Angelibright and some PIAA 4150K or 4700K white fog light bulbs. They both look pretty awesome as night when all your other mods are not noticable.

Personally like Hamann5 said,

1. Tint Tail Light
2. Quad Exhaust
3. M5 Side Mirror
4. ACS Splitter

Thats all I can think of right now, but those mods would be the first ones I'll do to the car you have right now. Mods never ever end, don't be bored, there's always more that you can put.
