My Ride: 2008 BMW 550i Sport Deep Sea Blue
Default New Member here from Socal! Happy to be part of the BMW Family

Just picked up a 2008 BMW E60 550i Sport in Deep Sea Blue Metallic a couple weeks ago. She has 44k miles on her and in amazing condition. Picked it up at a dealership in Newport. I always wanted to be apart of the BMW family so finally owning one is incredible.

Im really excited to get started on a new build and get to know everyone here. My last project was a 2008 Infiniti G37S Coupe and was over on myg37.com. Had it for about 3 years and decided to go a different route since driving a stick in traffic everyday was not working out.

Mods so far:
BMW Performance Grilles
Smoked Side Markers
Debadged
Muffler Delete
7500K Fog Lights (on there way)
LED License plate lights (on there way)
Painted Reflectors (on there way)

Future Mods:
Gloss Black Wrap Diffuser
aFe Intake
RPI Scoop
CKS Coilovers
Wheels (undecided)
and more...

Really? I found two when looking around. One had the brown interior which I loved but the miles were too high
