A couple of small mods I did this past weekend. I also detailed/waxed/polished her.

Matte Badges:



///M Pedals (OEM dead pedal soon as I find a dremel, not spending 70.00 on one for 5 minutes of use!)



Look at the nice shiny hood..



Coming the weekend of the 17th:

128's installed and ACS Style roof spoiler

Thanks. I actually looked for one too, and there are like none even made according to my dealer who searched his database. Most Mystic Blue had Auburn or Beige. I like the Beige interior on the E60 though, even though its a bitch to maintain.

That is exactly why I wanted black, I about 15 years ago I had an Acura Legend coupe - loved it, Black w/Tan interior, but I HATED cleaning the seats all the time. I've only had black leather ever since

Looks nice!! And why $70 to install a dead pedal? U dont need a dremel. Geez...gimme a call and use my drill and self tapping screws. U know how I installed my dead pedal? A BMW screwdriver and REGULAR screws. Just twist it will all ur might! LOL.

If I may be so bold as to suggest another mod for you: smoke those tails a little bit - just the red part.

Nice ride though! Can't wait to see those buck-28s slapped on it

It's the OEM dead pedal John. The OEM plastic one has to be destroyed and removed to get it on. Thats why I need a dremel to cut the OEM one out. You have a dremel by chance?

If it were the matching M aftermarket like the other ones, it would already be installed
