I'm going to order some bits for my M5 from IND...

Side markers in black

Any suggestions as to what config to go for on an Alpine white?

Gloss black/matt black/light tint?

Cheers

Mat

I've just been looking at these earlier. I would say Gloss outer & inner with a light lense tint.....would look shit hot with the gloss shadow line.

The most popular combo has been gloss surrounds with matte black inner plus light LED's. The gloss black surround matches the OEM BMW window trim and the light tint is the same tint level that comes on the F12/F13 M6 LED's from the factory.

Thanks for that

Can you recommend a diffuser to suit the Akra carbon tip exhaust setup?

Cheers

For the rear diffuser I recommend the 3D Design or RKP both in the 1x1 carbon weave to match the Akrapovic tips. Just so you know all diffusers on the market besides the RKP will cause the comfort access trunk foot swipe to no longer function properly. Some M5 owners don't mind since they don't really ever use this option.

Thank you for the prompt reply. Is there a photo of the RKP one on a white M5?

Thank you

I went with gloss black kidney grills and gloss black side vents. I think it looks good as it matches the gloss black on the bottom of the mirrors. Now I see BMW is offering the 343M wheels in black…hummmmm

Here is a photo of the RKP diffuser + challenge center. When the M5 comes back from AMS I can take sow photos of the RPK alone.
