i know it looks funny without Quad exhaust right now, but i just got the bumper installed yesterday, thanks Eugene helped me had it installed
now i know i need quad exhaust, Eugene you make me need to spend more money now

i also need wheels, cant do both at same time, dont know wheels or quad exhaust should come first

Looks great, I'd get the quads too since you acn;t really get the wheels until spring anyway.

I vote quads 1st since you already have the cutout in the bumper.

Nice car BTW

thanks all for your ideas, i am thinking about the same way too

but i cant find Quad for 535XI, and i dont want it to be too loud
and i have 17 inches OEM wheels now, really ugly if you look from the side

if i get Quad first, then i should always let people see my rear (speed up)
if i get wheels, then i should always let people see my side or front (slow down) haha

Nice M5 rear. I usually would pick wheels first. But since you have the rear bumper installed, it looks weird now. So go for the quads.

You have to get quads first to make the rear look even.
