Here are some OK pics although I took them with my iPhone. I am in the process of fully modding this guy because I never thought I'd say it, but I LOVE it!!!!!!!!! Ive had it for 1 month, and I think I did pretty good for a strict budget! All of these mods were done for around $1000.00. ANy suggestions?

as of now the mods are:

Stock Wheels in Semi Gloss black
Black Kidney Grills
Debadged
Tinted Tails and Sidemarkers
10% Side Tint 30% Windshield
ACS Style Carbon Fiber Roof Spoiler
H&R Springs
K&N Typhoon Intakes
Carbon BMW Roundels

I plan on:
Rogue Engineering Pulleys
Exhaust (undecided)
Smoking the headlights with 8000K bulbs and upgraded halos
Sarus Forged wheels Matt black centers Red Lips 20" or 21"
RH Carbon double decker front lip spoiler
RH Rear Carbon Splitter
Carbon Mirror Covers
AA Tuning











and YES I can see out of it at night, and no I don't recommend it! It is fun, but it sucks having to open the sunroof everytime I am behind a cop!


and my only hope for not getting that tinted windshield ticket is...


let me know what you guys think!

That's one mean looking M5. I like your checkered garage floor and those are some crazy dark tints you got. That police badge sticker in your windshield won't do squat.

Good luck with your future modding!

I like the model airplanes. Are they RC or static display. Regardless, everything looks nice except for the water heater in the background.

That's some stealth bomber....Its hard to improve on a stock M5 imo, but you have tastefully done it.
and the garage is a too.

Dang... The M5 look like Lord Vader himself is that a model of a Vaught F4U Corsair plane? That's one of my favorite fighter plane of WWII.
