My Budgeted Mods
#1
Hello forum members!!
Here I've been on the forum for a few months now and since have gotten some inspirations to do mods on my car!!
Long story short, here are mods during these 3 months...
Pardon for cellphone pics, I don't have a professional camera, and I don't take my Sony camera around or even use it
M5 spoiler 5 months before I joined this forum (sorry only have the pcitures taken in the early icy morning).
First off after joining forum, HID low-beam and fog, received the package at 6pm in the evening and started on it right away!!
Finished results
Then I don't remember which mods I went for but here is the list:
Codings by Simon the genius
Tried plasti dip my window trims but failed
Then got another can of plasti dip and did my Kidney grille + license plate frames
CF roof and M5 spoiler wrap (by a local shop)
Matte black window trim vinyl (by a local shop)
M5 cluster mod (by Simon)
Special/Ricky brake effect for E60 LCI (by Simon)
Failed attepmt on plasti dip my # badges finally just DEBADGED!!
CF roundels
RPI exhaust (Trinity Autosport)
Interior LED lighting (Trinity Autosport)
RIGHT 2 days before I got my RPI exhaust installed, I got too excited and scratch my bumper
But anyways gotta move on
Finally here is the stock photo on the first day I got my car
And below is basically what it looks like now (skip the ads btw) LOL

Already bought parts and soon to come:
New shoes
Replace these deteriorating molding. #1 &4
LED turn signals
Wishlist:
Umnitza Orion II
Modmynav full camera (front & back) package
Mtech body kit (almost impossible with my current budget )
BTW, here's a list of coding done to my car by Simon the genius if any of you're interested
Key Fob windows up
Key Fob pathway lighting
Cluster speedo
Auto unlock doors with key eject
Fog fade on/off welcome light
Climate control fan speed display even with AUTO
Allow high beam and fogs on simultaneously
No dimming of AE when lowbeam on
Door gong delete
Hard brake flashing
Turn signal warm up check off
Double impulse hazard light
I think that's it, don't know if i forgot a couple.
ANYCOOOW,

Any input is appreciated...

Nice! Looks great. I moved on from modding my E60 to my TL. Your thread has got me thinking though.....! Any sound clips of the exhaust?
What color LED signals did you get? I have the white led front blinkers and sidemarkers. Cheap mod that gets alot of attention . How old are you btw? Your mods are pretty much what I did....my budget sucks...I am student lol. Get some 3M scratch remover....looks like most of those scratches can be buffed out!

Nice One, i was contemplating the carbon roof wrap and seeing yours has made my mind up. It will go along nicely with the front carbon splitter and rear carbon twin exit defuser i am getting,,,,,,,,,,, You need to upgrade the angel eye bulbs to get ride of that yellow glow.
Any thing else planned then
