+1 for mirrors...and shadow line trim is a must...if you are going to vinyl wrapy...consider a gloss black also...

It looks good, but I'm not a big fan of people totally transforming their base 5 into an M5 (or any other M for that matter). Why not go for your own look? I understand a bumper here and there, but if you wanted an M5, you should have bought an M5
