My F10 M5 Alpine White + IND + 3D Design + Akrapovic + H&R

Hi all, I come from Vientiane, Laos

I just picked up my first car in my life last week and of cause it is BMW F10 M5 2013 Alpine White with Sakhir Orange Full Leather Black Alcantara headliner

I have done a lot of mods with parts and accessories that I ordered before the car arrived

Please let me know what you think.

Mods list:

Akrapovic Evolution System with Carbon Fiber tail pipe
3D Design Trunk Spoiler (Carbon Fiber)
3D Design Front Spoiler Set
3D Design Rear Diffuser
3D Design Side Skirt
IND Front Gloss black grilles
IND side grilles Gloss black surrounds + Matte black center + Light tinted LED
H&R lowering spring
H&R spacers front and rear

Future mods:

IND Door handle in Gloss Black
Caliper cover in Orange or Red
Wheels (maybe )


I like the sound of Akrapovic a lot. Its sound like hey I am the big brother get out of my way lol .. I want to make its sound louder any suggestion?
I think H&R makes my car more aggressive look. It looks very nice on H&R spring and many people on the roads can't take their eyes away from my car hahaha ...

That looks really good. Very tasteful and well executed mods

Love the stance of your car and how the spacers make the tires fill out the arches. Keep the wheels, I really like the look of the 20" M5 wheels

Beautiful car

I like the front splitter. I think the rear diffuser might be a little too much, but that's just me.

Need some leather cleaner for the drivers seat!!

Looks good, enjoy it!

You got it looking great right out the gate son. Love the interior color and the mods. HR got it right on the springs. It lowers it at the perfect height. I personally haven't seen anyone on here using a different company. I could be wrong. As far as getting your exhaust to be louder other than getting a muffler delete (awesome thread on that one already by rpim5), there are other exhaust companies that are louder. Rpi, Meistershaft are two of them. But there are more.

Nicely done! On making the Akra louder, that could be solved with some downpipes! At least that is the direction I'm headed

I haven't seen anyone here use or sell downpipes, so I have to wait for them to go first

Yes, I think I want to change break caliper covers to Red or Orange paint. What do you think? is it going to look good and clean?

3D kit fit very well in front, rear, and side skirt. The front Spoiler Set is a bit too low for me if the car is lowered by H&R lower sprint. The height is about 8.5cm left from the ground, so I have to be careful when driving on the poor road condition

Perfect mods, IND + 3D Design = perfection! You have given yourself a beautiful platform to continue driving, or even add a few more mods to. Enjoy in the best of health!

What a gorgeous backdrop, too . . .
