My Carbon Black 540!
Hello Everybody!
Wanted to share my current car and get everyone's opinion on it so far. Also I'm open to any mod suggestions, anything to slowly bring it all together. Current Mods: M5 style diffuser (not the best one) M5 Carbon Wing (taken from a crashed M5) Remus Catback Exhaust (Stock downpipe, might run catless soon) 15mm Rear spacers 13mm front spacers MST Intake. Future planned mods: Lowering springs Charge pipe Catless DP (maybe) Front Splitter Lastly is a tune, but specifically something to bring back the upshift bangs and burbles, not really trying to push too much power, looking around 380ish hp and 370ish lbft. If anybody knows somewhere in the Los Angeles/Orange County area that can tune please let me know! Anyways here is the car! Here is a link for the exhaust: |

Looks great. Enjoy the ride. Since you've gone with the black out theme, have you considered black exhaust tips?

Love it
I'm getting my carbon black m550 any day now. Same wheels. Probably will do the same rear diffuser as you.

Thank you brother! I wanted to but the only tips were in carbon, which added an extra $200 to the cost, which in all honestly looks amazing, but I like how the chrome gives it some variety of colors.

That's awesome my dude, congrats! I originally wanted a M550, but the deal I got on my car was too good to pass. I'd definitely get something higher quality compared to mine, I cheaped out on the diffuser and got it for $250 which has the fitment not so good.

Wanted to show some updates I've made regarding the interior. I just did some messing around with BimmerCode trying to get as close to a M5 dash. |

Amazing sound,, is this the Remus rear muffler only or full exhaust?
Maybe change your wheels? here is my sapphire black 540i basically its exactly what you did but with aftermarket wheels.

It's a whole process brother, I used some posts in the X3 forums and G20 forums, a lot more people interested in stuff like that in those forums!

Woah, the build looks amazing. Can you please share the rim and tire sizes? Are you lowered?

looking good, sounds good. the only thing is with the M5 dash graphic when you put it into sport/sport+ the glow effect for speed and rpm goes away which makes it pretty dull looking imo.
