obvious reasons, the only badge that looks nice on the 5 is the ///M badge... first day i brought my 530 home off went the badge. on the M well, i dont see the point in debadging an M

For a cleaner stealth look.

+1

Yep the custom 166 makes a huge difference over stock silver finish. I get alot of compliments on the wheels rather than the car.

I know right. I wanted a stealth look so people wont know which model 5 series i drive. Only enthusiasts will know what my plates say.

Yep just bought Dbae's RPI GT exhaust. Now I don't know if i can get a hold of dummy tips that looks similar to the RPI exhaust. They look pretty generic though so i shouldn't have a hard time looking. Sucks Eloy won't do a dummy setup for me. I also plan to get the exhaust powder coated matte black. The new exhaust setup will be my project in the summer time.

I rolled the fenders in the rear when i put 15mm spacers so no rubbing although the front fenders rub slightly only on potholes coz i put 5mm spacers.
