First round of mods complete!

Hey guys! My initial modding itch has been satisfied with the much anticipated arrival of my wheels last week. So I thought I'd share some pictures. Enjoy!

Current modifications:
-color matched front bumper reflectors (IND)
-gloss black front grilles (IND)
-gloss black outer/matte black inner side grilles (IND)
-gloss black trunk badge (IND)
-door handles with chrome strips painted gloss black (waiting for shipment from IND)
-H&R springs
-gloss black roof wrap (Elevated Auto Concepts) - thanks to runningthingz for the referral
-ceramic window tint, 30% all around with 70% front windshield
-Eisenmann Sport exhaust (rear-section) - thanks to mindlessmark07
-HRE S101 wheels, 21 inch, finish: gloss charcoal center, brushed tinted clear lip (SupremePower)

Future modifications (when I get bored):
-front lip
-rear diffuser
-Eisenmann center pipes
-software tune

Thanks to EAS in Anaheim for all the IND goodies and also the installation of the H&R springs and Eisenmann exhaust. Also thanks to SupremePower in Placentia for an awesome set of wheels! I also wanted to thank the members on this forum for all the great information and help I've received. I've made some good friends along the way! Especially my weekend Cars and Coffee crew! You guys are awesome!

Thanks for all the nice compliments everyone.

I do miss my E46 M3, which was my last car. However, I'm falling in love with my M5 like I did with my M3. So the transition has been easy!
