indeed.

i agree, we are a rare breed - which is why we should start our exclusive "FIVE 3 FIVE" club!
Count me in as 535 modder. I also like the benefit of being able to go to my dealer and have them install Dinan parts that they sold me. Just doesn't seem right to cut corners on a mod after investing so much in the car.

That is hot...

I would definitely black out the calipers though...and tint those side markers...and paint match those front kidneys and...

This pic just reminded how much I want my M5 side mirrors.

Edit: Don't know why the pic didn't show! I'm newb
I actually like how the red calipers just pops out against the black background.

Yeah, you should get the M5 mirrors!

Maybe if we can get enough of us interested we could approach DINAN with an offer for a group buy for an intercooler! Maybe that would help get them interested in us enough to try and make one.....

Utilize the power of the "FIVE 3 FIVE"

I'm going to get them. I'm just looking for the right place to buy them from right now. Dealer too expensive. I'm most likely going to get them from that guy posting about them in the classifieds as soon as he answers a couple questions for me....Unless someone else pops up with a good deal in the next couple of days....

I tried asking Dinan to do group buys before and it didn't work. I also tried asking them to do a quad exhaust for the 545 but that didn't pan out either. But I'm sure it's not impossible. You guys should PM member JetBlack as he's a Sales Manager for Dinan. You can also try calling their Morgan Hill office and ask for him, Chris MacNaughton.

Chris is actually checking into the quad exhaust for me as well. I'm expecting a no, but I had to at least ask. It's alot easier to say no to one guy asking for that one thing. Maybe though saying hey 10 of us (or whatever) will buy an intercooler could spark a little more interest...That is if there's even more than 1 or 2 out there interested in the thought of one. I know I am....

I take it you like black?

A little too sinister for me but it does look nice and I am very happy with my Dinan stuff...Love the exhaust.
