My Ride: 2004 545i
whats crackin people. i'd like to say whatsup to everyone and im excited to get things going on this board.
i just picked up my 04 545i today and am enjoying how it feels.
to make things short, i was wondering what are some good suggestions on some good rims and what i need to get/do to make my car at a good height.
i really don't know how to ask that question, but hopefully you guys can throw out some suggestions.
again, thanks and im excited to see what i can learn from this board.

thanks for welcoming me in. heres some things i wanna do just to give an idea of what i want to do to my car.
recommendations and thoughts are always welcome.
1. M Aero Kit (as of now, i've found where to get this done... thanks guys!)
2. Quad tip exhaust (what rear bumper would i need? possibly the M5 rear?) and which brand is right.
3. adjust ride height (do i just need springs? or do i need to buy the whole set?)
4. figure out whats are good size wheels and tires. (which is a popular BBS set?)
5. anything else?
again, sorry for the lame questions and remarks. gotta start somewhere with this learning process
