Some New Mods,

Hi,

After getting rid of my 1M, i finally decided my M5 as my "mod car",
following are the pictures of some couple first mods,

-turner race exhaust (economical value, cheap, fast, simple lightweight upgrades - saves storing space as well)
-3D Design Diffuser
-BMW performance spoiler
-iND Black M5 badge


There are obviously a whole lot more to install:
here are my wishes:

-Lowering Kit (springs- but still not sure cos currently loving the stock height durability)
-Downpipe (still not sure about the CEL)
-aFe CAI intake
-Wheels (On the way already)

Excellent choice to mod your M5. With some mods there's definitely some real performance gains to be had.

I'd recommend either the Eibach Springs or the new Vogtland Springs for the F10 M5. There's definitely a degree of stock ride comfort quality with both. Get some sway bars also!

I'd forget about the AFE intakes, you'd probably get the same or more performance gains from just the removal of the charcoal filters.

I can't speak to cosmetic mods, but some look better than others.

Good luck.

The Comp Pack Sway Bars are great! But the new Dinan ones are more aggressive.

The Vogtlands are like 0.9 inch in front and 0.6 inch in back I think. Nobody has put them on that I know of I think.

My friend works for them. I almost got them instead of my Eibachs but the Vogtlands literally came out the day after I recieved my new Eibachs.
