On another note: replaced plugs and coils last night. What a POS spark plug job that is!

So far I've put maybe 50 miles on it and it seems like the perfect tone. Not to loud while cruising, but makes a good amount of noise when you get on it.
The main reason I went with it is because Of how reversible it is, not to mention it took about 1.5 hours to install! Can't complain.

Do you think it's too loud for having a toddler in the back seat?

On stock set up.. Not at all (Its relative.. loud.. maybe.. too loud.. nope).

Mine was an infant. I tried to load up before or after the cold start. To me the cold start is loud for few of us.

I deleted my cold start for the children lol

Did you delete the cold start yourself?
If yes how do you do that?

When car got tuned they give you the option to delete your cold start. My M5 is tuned by DME. I know other tuners are able to do the same

What size front and rear spacers are you running? And stock suspension? Sits real nice

Blaxwil · 08-08-2021, 09:22 PM

Out with the damaged and in with the new front lip. I'm guessing this one will last through the year.

Nice wheels! Are they Signature?

Also, what are those 3 tiny knobs sticking out of your front bumper?

Wheels are 21" HCS21 BC Forged.

Those are ALP Laser sensors in the bumper.

Notice the crack in the mesh grill. Getting that replaced this week.

M5Rick · 08-09-2021, 03:36 AM

Lucky that Mazda bumper didn't penetrate a coolant rad.

So true.

Dankrupt · 08-10-2021, 06:08 PM

Replaced the old vents with IND painted blacked out vents. Old ones were getting faded so it was bugging me for a while. On a side note I also picked up a new to me daily!

Aside from how modern the NBT Evo menus look, compared to the CIC, the voice control on the NBT is simply amazing. Gone is the old "tree" like structure of the CIC (i.e. on the CIC you can't just say "call John", you have to say Phonebook first and then say the name). I feel like I can almost converse with the NBT and it will understand me

The ceramic touch controller with write function is cool, but I find myself using voice input most of the time.

Carplay is also nice, although I'm not sure how often I'm going to be using it.

The nav on the NBT is also much better and with the NBT you're now getting nav queues on the head up display as well.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the upgrade. Some pics of the new looks:

I had a local guy do it here in Bulgaria. I'm sure there's plenty of guys in the US who can do it for you.
