What did you do to your M5 today?

JW_ATL · 08-04-2019, 07:15 AM

Thanks BeachM5nster !

Tried to code my car w/ Carly yesterday...no luck. Was able to read fault codes/load modules no problem but no dice on the actual coding. Going to give it another go today w/ settings changes.

Oh and maybe a wash too...

SCD-1983 · 08-04-2019, 12:02 PM

Installed a ceramic iDrive controller, BMS intake and BMS Stage 1 Tuner...power and cosmetic updates 👍

Let my wife drive it for the first time, she was constantly flooring it and then laughing and blushing whilst saying this car is ridiculous

Wife + 706bhp = A good drive out

you may be right but im not convinced. the front fenders are flared and im not sure even lowered it will look right bc regardless of the body of the car, when i look at it with 10mm on front the wheelbase itself looks off

thanks man. i definitely had a hard time with lip options and then choosing which "mcrae splitters" i wanted once i decided thats what i wanted.

the original and highest quality mcrae splitters are the $1,100 RKP brand

then you have a few other options that are suspect on ebay etc.

i think i just got lucky, i chose a reputable looking option with good photos and pulled the trigger. i paid $350

with the RKP on actual pictures of them from owners and from adverts, it revealed the rkp were too pointy and fangy. but high quality no doubt.

but when looking for owner photos i came across a different mcrae splitter that looked really good but no brand or anything. they seemed to have a stair step in them. and thats what i looked for in photos when ordering but i dont remember where

Interior trim bug bit me again and decided to brighten things up going from Individual Piano Black to Hexagon Aluminum and throw in the silver start/stop button. Feel it gives it a different look than the bright red button. Still digging the all Ceramic controls as well... Before / After...

My wife drove it the next day I bought it and said she doesn't want to drive it any more in that it's a 'man's' car, she's happier with her Merc convertible.She reckons it's about 700 bhp
(Didn't disagree)

Simple5 · 08-21-2019, 06:59 PM

Put some blackline tails on her and tinted out the rear reflectors!
