I know - still need a lot of mods, but I am lovin' this car!... Got the M166 installed and v32.1 CIP update
What do you guys think - next mods...finish V1 hardwire, sprint booster, euro stickers, rear sway, shadowline, m5 front w/fogs, mtech sides, coil-overs, LCI tails, darker tint (in that order)?
I'll take any photography advice you have too...

The rest of the mods sound spot on too.
For a future list (
) you could add M5 Mirrors and M5 Trunk Finisher to the list and IMHO the OEM Splitters look great on AW.

Thanks for the comments!
No, the car has stock suspension, non-sport.
Thanks, those are some great suggestions - every time I look at the car I think the mirrors look a little too square. I like the M5 trunk finisher, but also wanted to check out one of the carbon fiber spoilers I saw somewhere on the forum - started with a 'V'. I will check out the OEM splitters - don't think I've seen that yet.

Click here to see pics of the OEM Splitters on alpine white. I just realised that you are going for an M5 bumper, so these OEM Splitters may not fit. If you like the look then you could always go for the M-Sport bumper or go for a similar splitter that will fit the M5 bumper. Consider it food for thought
