I'm glad I seen it first. I was a bit apprehensive about getting it done, thought it might have been a bit too much but them blue tips
Have you looked into doing the brakes? I see there's a cool looking M Performance brakes upgrade with red calipers. Front looks lovely but the rear are punny looking. I know they don't do much but could have still put a bit of effort in.... |

Yea 3k is ridiculous. I think there are cheaper alternatives, at least with the F10 there was. I'm looking into it. Will update you if I find any options!

Maybe I'll just paint or vinyl wrap my calipers, at least the front is a solid 1 pc monoblock caliper |

Thats correct, but since this is the e-drive the rear might be a bit lower due to the batteries in the trunk

Installed some carbon fiber mirror covers with the M5 fins. Really liking the look so far. Gives it a bit more of a sporty look

Installed a carbon 3D lip on the front and carbon fog light surrounds from RW Carbon for Bimmerfest
Gave the front a much more aggressive look I was going for! |

Hey man, great build.
One question about the springs - is any practicality sacrificed? Are curbs / underground parking ramps an issue? Considering lowering mine as well, but it’s my daily kid hauler, so I’m on the fence. |

The springs only gave my car a mild drop. So I don't have any issues scraping. Clears parking blocks as well esp if you don't have a lip. Ride is a bit tougher though

How did you get the 530e badge on the back in gloss black? Looks great!

I just used plastidip. Quick, easy and removable! Its matte but I put some detailer on it and it made it a bit glossier

Installed the BMS intake last night. Goes well with the blue badging on the intake cover. Was hoping a loud blowoff/bypass valve sound like on my 435 but it really wasn't a huge difference. A little bit more turbo spool and the tiniest baby chirp from the bypass valve. Sounds like a bird chirp. Seems like a mild gain in performance but I got it mostly for the noise.
