With my M5 finally home, my BMW stable is full.

B-1Pilot · 11-17-2013, 05:43 PM

Had a chance to get some updates done on my car..

I had it properly paint prepped, wrapped with suntek ppf-c, tinted with huperoptik ceramic (30%), installed iND reflectors, and introduced to its BMW garage mates...

Then I took the opportunity to go find some of Texas' less travelled twisty roads.

Here's some photos from the day:

$400. A bit higher than my last tint, but it was done very very well.

Rohardi · 11-17-2013, 07:12 PM

Not bad. It really does look good!

MSportDC · 11-17-2013, 07:21 PM

So beautiful. Car looks fantastic in basically stock form.

Great stable!
I really like the silverstone m5 color.
Somehow, I remember my e92 M3 silverstone to be more baby blue than this.

thanks... and I think huper-optik is the best film out there at the moment, unless you get photocrhomic like on stealths.. but for a lighter colored car, it needs a darker tint to accentuate the shawoline and trime pieces.

I think SS appears different because of the F10 body lines... I thought it was a slight change in color away from the baby blue I had seen on E60 and E92 Ms, but it isnt. I was looking at frozen colors at a dealer and walked past a SS M5 and it stopped me in my tracks... I very much dig the color even if it is common and been around for a while. I will tell you this much, its so much easier to clean that the BSM, at least here in the land of red dust.

That color is amazing. Enjoy it

I have to be honest in general I am not a fan of the 'look' of the comp pack wheels, but on your car the effect is stunning....very very nice indeed.

M54ccibo · 11-18-2013, 11:02 AM

Fantastic. Reunited and it feels so goooood...

skrambles297 · 11-18-2013, 11:16 AM

I love the silverstone.

RoboM5 · 11-18-2013, 11:19 AM

The Silverstone looks great.

infamousq · 11-18-2013, 12:40 PM

Wow SSII never looked so good thanks for the new wall papers!!!

RPiM5 · 11-18-2013, 12:45 PM

Dude, your car looks ridiculously good.

So jelly!

Also, there seems to be a hole in your rear bumper.

Lol!

Thanks, man!

Yeah that hole should be replaced shortly. I put the tow hook in just so people would ask about it instead of the hole.
