Mods.....

As most of you guys know, mods for the M5 are very thin on the ground in the UK - would be nice to see what other people are fitting to their M5 to make it individual, and where the parts were sourced from.

I have just ordered some beefier 'Cyba' exhaust tips:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BMW-F10-M5...#ht_139wt_1043

I will add a couple of pics when they arrive and are installed and rate how good the product is.

Also looking at some carbon bits, I would like a diffuser, side trims and mirror caps but I have only seen these so far from different suppliers and want to get the carbon weave to match - has anyone purchased any of this kind of stuff and if so got any reviews of it?

RKP from IND - they are working on a splitter like the M3 performance one, they have a lip and a diffuser - quality is superb. BMW are releasing their own tips in next few months that look awesome. also waiting for BMW m performance front grills and will get the m Perf spoiler. going to order the side gills from IND also if I scant source the performance m5 ones.

what do you mean by side trims?

Been looking at the IND stuff, quality looks fantastic and love the small centre lip that they do for the front.

Sorry, the side trims, I meant the gills on the front wings. Ideally would like them gloss black but if I fitted a carbon front splitter, would settle for them in carbon as long as it matched the front and would then maybe like to do the mirror caps to tie it all in a little.

Maybe if a few of us wanted some IND products we could do a small group buy and hopefully save some ££'s on shipping costs?

Neil, would you be able to pick me up an RKP front lip please? If I could save the delivery charges and import fees I would be more tempted!

thanks

Yeah the name puts you off a bit but if you look in the e90 forum they do fantastic stuff. My mate runs a burger box on his 335i and my god it's quick, easy quicker than an M3 in a straight line.

Search for JB3 and JB4. The JB4 can do pretty cool things but not available for our cars yet but Terry is working on it.
