My very own Personal F10 M5 Life Cycle Impulse

Amazing transformation Dave! You've got me inspired to do some changes on my beast also! Drop and color are perfect!

JOHNBMWM5 · 03-30-2014, 02:28 AM

Car looks real Good.

shahano · 03-30-2014, 02:36 AM

Great review as usual. Please can you explain what BMS CES can tool is? Also, is the tune a piggy back or is it an ECU remap? Can you remove it before taking the car for service?

radun · 03-30-2014, 04:24 AM

I like it, congrats!

Whoops just realized you said door jambs and not door handles. No they didn't wrap the inside of door jambs. it really wasn't necessary. It's fine for me and I like having the door jambs black.

Still deciding between Eibach or H&R springs.

Did you think about it?

Yeah there are still future upgrade plans that I have but I have no timetable for installing them. Such as:

- M6 Steering Wheel
- CCB's
- LCI Front Seat Retrofit (For the adjustable side bolsters)
- LCI Cupholders
- Upgraded Turbos
- Removal of the top speed limiters (one on the engine and one on the DCT)

Just to name a few.

Wow! As always very well done and amazingly presented.

Looks like a completely new car. Looks like a 14 CP Individual.

Well done!

Great to see how it turned out, Dave! I really look forward to the full photoshoot. And hopefully the east coast snowmaggedon is finally done and you can get to enjoy some sunshine with it too.

Un Gato Malodoro · 03-30-2014, 09:56 AM

That's awesome bro. I saw the project photos on AP's website and has no idea it was your M5 until I saw this post. AP is a great shop...had my tint done there. Very interested to see how you do against the other cars!

avlnch · 03-30-2014, 11:05 AM

It looks like paint from the photos.

Nice job.. very different, very cool. I like it, and installer did a good job.

Lol! Yeah I'm thinking to the average person, non car-enthusiast type, it's going to look like a paint job. But to the trained eye, they are going to be able to tell it's Vinyl.

Still looks badass. Matte black accents work very well on that color.

Ridiculous - you are a bastard. Im just about to put some IND bits on and I get all excited over that, and you go and do this. Now I want to wrap my whole car. Looks awesome.
