A couple of pics after a detail (clay / polish / wax). I had the front bumper painted to remove the front license and side markers painted. And also had the side skirts painted for stone chips.

Car now looks brand new. Next summer I'll be picking up some 21" HRE P101 in either brushed tinted clear or brushed rose bronze.

Congrats! Real nice. Maybe consider wrapping the chrome window trim gloss black? Not sure why these high end cars even have chrome.

Enjoy it, these things can be wicked fast too.

I owned a 15 Turbo S and it is no where near as fast above 80 compared to the M5. 0-60 no question its faster, but anything above that the Panny seems to struggle.

Thanks, you can buy the trim in gloss black from Porsche, it's on my mod list along with the fender vent.

No doubt the M5 is faster up top, it's noticeable.
