hard to choose just one...here is a descending order ranking...
CIC Retrofit (you guys have no idea how awesome this sh!t is lol) > 20" Deeeeeep Dish Wheels > M5 Tech Kit > M5 Mirrors > Orions + Ehssans Blackout Method > LCI Tails > Gloss Black Shadowline Trim & Roof Wrap > 12" alpine sub
i love them all though. i dont think ive regretted a single mod....except if i had to do it all over again, id save up for OEM M5 mirrors though...the autofolding option would be KILLER!

fading usually refers to stopping power....meaning that the brakes become less and less powerful during spirited driving as they heat up. a loss of usable friction occurs. top brake manufacturers find innovative ways to lessen brake fade....this includes slotted, cross drilled and vented designs. its also why M5s have air vents in the front bumper to keep the brakes cool and prevent fading or lessen it as much as possible. this is another reason why carbon or ceramic brakes are a popular option as they handle heat a lot better than steel...
brakes found on airliners are usually carbon or ceramic...they are super heavy duty...the Lexus LFA is a super car using such technology on the road.
