Looks good. Don't see too many of the e61's here in so cal. Looks even better with some aftermarket work. I would lose the painting/decal of the guy taking a picture on the driver side rear door tho...

255/35-20" and 285/30-20" in a E61 520d Your car must perform now like a school bus... j/k

You definitely need as priorities: a dual exhaust muffler tips (tips at least with 76mm) and a chiptuning/tuning-box to put that thing in the 210hp range. With this you will accomplish that mean look that it already got. Only then think in other things like M5 mirrors and other small aesthetics stuff, but i would only add to the exterior the mirrors.

PS: Nice color

I'm with you about the quad. Just a muffler with dual tips, or just modify the oem muffler and attach dual tips because once it is a diesel car the sound it won't change much*. And we are talking in a mod that is 75? just for tips or 500? for a new muffler. About the engine try this box: DieselPower they claim 210hp in your car. My X3 (2.0d 150hp) with it is capable of 220km/h in straight line.

* Go wild and make what i did to my X3: eliminate the rear muffler and put straight pipe with dual tips. You will love the woosh from the turbo.

Dont want any more sound from the muffler or hear the turbo woosh.
Aint any fan ot the diesel sound so there for I like my car to sound as discrete as it could!
Think I?m abit old for Wroom Pssyt as all the kidz in high tuned turbo cars sound.....(been there myself a few years ago )
Maybe it would be ok if I had a large engine like yours but mine is to small and slow....
Went for looks instead of speed
