If you like harsh ride you'll be fine. It will be firmer and bouncier as springs are shorter
and feel like is more compressed.

I think matte gunmetal will work best with the inter blue

As for debadging - are you crazy, bro?! Definitely NOT debadge!

How about rebadge it as a 525? So people might think you are a poser. And then you gun it and leave them in dust.

On a serious mod note - I don't know if you're thinking any CF stuff. If you do, I have a pair of CF inserts for the M5 mirror's bottom.

Debadge, then add a gloss black ///M and omit the "5".
