Yeah I know what you mean, the M5 front is balls to the wall aggressive. While the 550i is more of a "reserved aggressive" I love it.

nicely done

35% tint, Painted reflectors, swap out stock halos for some whiter ones, hardwired V1, thats about it, I'm not gonna go overboard I have my eyes set on an E90 M3, in the (not so close) future.

Sweet Ride!!

Have you thought about getting the trunk finisher? I believe they are now available for LCI Models as well. I did it on my 04 and love the way it looks.

Do you have any shots from the side? Definitely interested.

Hyper_545i · 10-03-2008, 02:35 PM

Actually the rear spoiler is ACS. The M5 Trunk Finisher I was refering to is the piece by where the license plate is. It actually makes the trunk flush rather than the normal concave shape. It is an actual OEM M5 Piece. I can get some pics of the ACS piece from the side as well if you would like.

yeah definitely man, keep me in the loop, I'm new to the "5'er modding game" so I'm open to any suggestions, I just replaced the orange reflectors with matching painted ones, looks so much better.

this model will be a timeless classic in my book.

kamek · 10-15-2008, 10:53 AM

A 550i in stick is a pretty rare car IMO. Do you attend St. John's University in NY? There is a black 550i in stick with the same kit and same wheels here at school. It seriously looks exactly exactly like your car. Every time I see it it's just

to your 550

lokoloko · 10-20-2008, 04:16 PM

Congrats! Looks great

yamazaho · 10-23-2008, 03:02 AM

Sweet ride man, I just one exactly like yours this morning. I gave the driver a big thumb up!!!!
