First M5! Full Build & Planned Mod List

Hey Guys,

This is my 3rd BMW but my first time building my car and waiting for it to be produced, shipped and delivered... I knew it was going to be hard to wait, but damn!!!

Here is my build:

2020 BMW M5
Black Sapphire Metallic
Full Black Merino Leather
Executive Package
Driving Assistance Plus Package
Bowers & Wilkins Sound System
Carbon Fiber Kidney Grills
Carbon Fiber Side Grills
Carbon Fiber Pro Rear Spoiler

Planned Mod List:

IND Painted Front Reflector Delete
IND Painted Rear Reflector Delete
Gloss Black Exhaust Tip Change
Gloss Black M5 Trunk Logo Swap
Mode Carbon Carbon Fiber Trophy Rear Diffuser
Window Tint (thinking 30%)
Possible Car Wrap - Frozen Black Metallic

I ordered the car at the beginning of November. The build was put in immediately and by Nov 12th I had a completion date in sight! Everything was going smoothly and my car was completed Nov 25th. It was picked up from the factory and arrived at port on November 29th. Still waiting for the car to get assigned to a ship.

I will update this post with images when I pick up the car and after my modifications

What builds and modifications have everyone done? Any other suggestions on modifications?

Finally picked up the car this week! It was a long wait, but once I got in that car to drive it - realized it was all worth it. I am coming from a Competition M3 and

Dropped the car off at Phenomenal Vinyl in Long Island today. They will be doing the following:

1. Full PPF Wrap
2. Ceramic Pro Coating
3. 35% Window Tint

Here are some pictures of the car when I picked it up and left it at Phenomenal Vinyl. Very excited to get everything done.

After the installs, I will be doing the rest of the modifications:

1. Front and Rear Reflector Delete
2. Black M5 Badge Swap
3. Black Exhaust Tips Swap
3. Mode Carbon Trophy Rear Diffuser Install

Car looks great... congratulations!

And you’re in safe hands there at Phenomenal Vinyl, I personally know Matthew who owns that shop, he’s a great guy and their quality of work is outstanding.

I look forward to seeing the end results.

Current Mods Completed

Hey BMW Fam!

I just picked up the F90 Beast yesterday from Phenomenal Vinyl. I was itching to get back in the car and see how all the mods came out.

The car looks amazing I know a lot of owners here love the other BMW colors for contrast and depth when looking at the F90. However, I have had multiple cars with all different colors but never a black car. I have always wanted to do a full blacked out car and man did it come out great!

I am so happy I got the Full PPF done. The car is going to stay looking great and it is going to be much easier to maintain over the years.

Let me know your thoughts. I definitely plan on getting some professional shots done in the spring.

It really completely changes the look of the car. I highly recommend it to any F90 owner that's looking for a more aggressive rear end.

Reach out to Sam at Mode Carbon. He's great and there products are amazing.

I'm considering purchasing their Trophy Front Splitter as well to complete the look!

How's the fitment on that rear diffuser?

Can you get some close ups for me please?

I tried it once but fit was too far off, really like it so if they've fixed the issues I'd like to get it again

The fit on the rear diffuser is perfect!

Hit up Sam at Mode Carbon for your purchase. He's a friend of a friend and they are just great people there. Very helpful and the products are top notch!!
