F10 Msport Detailing Ideas
I just purchased a dark metallic grey 535 xdrive. I love the car. BMW does very little in terms of detailing in terms of emblems or pin striping. Has anyone modified their f10 to dress it up a bit. If so, I would love ideas and better yet pictures.

Most would probably steer away from extra emblems etc. Pin striping can look awesome..though, in proper context (aggressive aero, wheels, etc)
I'd recommended looking into lip kits (front lip, side skirts), rear diffuser, or anything else iND distributing may offer for your car. These small accents can make a world of difference. Supplemental to those, an aggressive wheel+modified suspension combo makes the greatest difference in overall exterior aesthetics. http://www.velocitymotoring.com/v710...-bmw-f10-535i/ http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=951225

Personally I have never been a fan of extra emblems or pinstripes on the body of any car. On my E350 I took the time to remove the chrome strip that stretched across the passenger and driver side doors. And elected to drop and add new wheels Before and after It comes down to personal preference, I wouldn't add any emblems to your ride but if you really want a pin stripe, most tint/decal shops should be able to do it. Congrats on the new ride! |

^Looks great without all the chrome.

Thank you, the difference minor mods make!
I agree, much cleaner IMO without it. Right.. OP hope this gives you an idea of one look vs the other. It comes down to your personal liking. Let us know what outcome you decide on. |

Little details can make a heap of difference to these cars. A light drop, some proper OEM wheels, black kidney grill, etc. just to name a few. Adding badges probably would not be a good idea. Some of the M Performance stuff is very nice.
