Vote please!!
FYI, I have a LCI E60 with stock body kit, a set of 20" HRE wheels, and have pretty done all the lighting mods (i.e, HID lowbeam & fog, interior LEDs, license plate LEDs, LEDs turn signal and side markers, etc.) and codings, and a RPI exhaust.

Now looking to 'simonize' my headlights or go for a set of OEM M5 mirrors or get modmynav package. My budget will only allows only one, unfortunately.

Thanks for your time!!

OEM M5 mirror and ask Simon to auto-fold them in when you turn the alarm on.

I have the back-up camera and is one of the best things I've done to my car. Front camera would help protect front end (parking curbs). And it would be cool to get video into the car (I only have the backup camera). I definitiely think it will help with the sellability of the car later, too. It's definitely more functional than any of the other choices.

I like the black-out lights and couldn't care less about the side view mirrors.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. As of now, I'm not considering the body kits yet, because 1-I'm still not sure which body kit I wanna go with, 2-out of my budget range, 3-have no storage space for the stock bodykit.
