By the way where did you buy the Cyba black tips? Was it in the UK or imported from abroad.

The front lci grills not yet showing in dealer parts system yet.
Imported from the states, got them quick and perfect condition

Depends on what options you've ticked. Idk how the packs are put together in the uk..but if you didn't get the led headlights I don't think you get the squared off daytime leds....if you opted for led headlights then no this is not correct, if not looks right to me.

I wonder if the non-LED headlights would be a plug N play option when trying to retrofit onto 2013MY. I wouldn't think the wiring would change. What do you guys think?

Those are the standard lights for LCI.

LED option also has self-dimming feature and costs an additional $1,900 for 2014MY.

Yeah xenons as standard mate, so they are right.
Led headlights (squared) with DRL's will run you another £1500

The indicators look non-LED though on your pic John - I thought they were LED units even with the standard xenons?

I've ticked the LED option so kinda glad now that I get he squared off look - should make the car look pretty unique in the dark anyway - and living in Scotland that is often the case particularly in winter!

YEP None LED but I have the "High beem assist" which is all new.

Not long now John,
Hang on in there, it will be worth the wait. I wired my exhaust valves open over the weekend, just to see the effects. I came back and cut the wire off again. Its just not worth it, you can open them yourself with the sport plus button. Been out for a quick blast in the M5 tonight, and with the cool evening air, it was just flying, the cars worth every penny, regards, SIMON.

Hi Simon, yep not long to go, I am going to wire them open to see if it helps with a bit of sound, I will not get regular "Sport+" chances were I am living.

I will take some pictures as soon as I get the car home.

Sorry Neil mate but the "High beem assist" is a new version , thats what I should have said,and the new code on my car is :
5AC High-beam Assistant
This does all sorts of fancy stuff to avoid blinding the other cars, I have the same system on my 330D M Sport F31 it is great.

see it in action :

Excited for you John - you're gonna love the car, as if you didn't already know that!!

I agree that the Comp pack adds nothing in the UK - in fact, the wheels don't look as the standard 20"s, IMHO. The tech is amazing on my 2012 car, so I'd imagine the LCI will be even more ridiculously excellent.

Looking forward to seeing your photos and review in due course. Enjoy the countdown!

Simon

Thanks Simon having trouble sleeping these days, dealership tested my "Touch sat-nav" and said the internet is much faster and the touch turns into a cursor to search around, also it zooms the map and you can look around the map far and wide saving changing views.
Will put up some pictures ASAP.

Neil.
Yea as I said it's out on my 330D M Sport touring built November
2012, and it has been added to the LCI which the dealer tested on mine yesterday which is better than the may 2013 M5 I borrowed a few months ago.

If it was as the 2012 I would not had bothered as you say crap.

mind surprised you didn't go for the LED's its the main thing that makes the new LCI stand out from the standard motor. My dealer is getting a couple to see if I can retro fit them.

A lot of money for lights, that I would not really see the befit of IMO, the STD ones are good enough for me.
