My new (to me) F10

Purchased my first BMW late last month (2013 CPO 528i) and I love it! Today was an awesome sunny Texas day, so I washed and quick detailed it. I'll clay bar and full detail it later in the spring, but wanted to share my pics. I'm not going to make many changes, but will be doing the Bav Speaker One upgrade in the near future.

Congrats. If you hang around here too much you will be doing a lot more than just an audio upgrade.

AMEN brother!!!!! I wasn't going to do anything. Though I think a front lip will be the extant of what I'll do. I toyed with adding the back-up camera but the cost looks prohibitive...

No doubt! But I love reading about our beloved 5's! So add backup camera to the speaker upgrade and more to follow.

so now that you didn't listen to us here's some tasteful upgrades you definitely gotta do! black grilles! get rid of the chrome! since you're window trims are black it'll blend right into those.

definitely get that lip you're thinking about getting and get it painted the same color as your car or spend a lil bit more and get the carbon fiber version like mine!

or get it painted like this!

just when you thought it all ended you can swap your rear bumper for an MTECH bumper with a Carbon Fiber Diffuser in various styles and designs and add a quad exhaust while you're in the mix

a 3d design or style lip will finish off the trunk!

by far here's one of the sweetest roof spoilers i'm trying to get:

and to top things off you can upgrade your side skirts to the MTECH side skirts with some side skirt extentions!

and the list goes on and on!!! so now add all this to your to-do list and welcome to your new habit!

Gene, I'm definitely wanting to order one of these 'W' Style Roof Spoilers - http://www.**********s.com/bmw-f10-5...of-spoiler.htm
but are Mod Bargains the only peeps who stock them or have you found them elsewhere as theirs doesn't look quite the fitment of the one on the black F10?



I'm also luvvin this particular Boot Spoiler and Diffuser but is that an F10 or an M3?



And can you tell me what model these Morr rims are?



Soz to jcbama85 for hijackin your thread (but I blame Gene for the images he posted)

http://www.ebay.com/itm/FOR-11-14-BM...JWM8p~&vxp=mtr

that picture with the boot spoiler is an F10 and i saw that boot on ebay in carbon fiber...$176


as far as the Morr wheels...they look like the MS10 multi forged wheels:

Gene, that Boot Spoiler looks better on the black but it could be the angle of the photo. Luvvin the Roof Spoiler though and thinking I'd like to go the same path (paint or wrap it in AW). Thanks for sharing Bud.

Went to pull the trigger on the eBay version but the Seller's table states it's not compatible with a 535D which makes no sense as there is absolutely no physical difference in the roofline between a 535i and a 535D is there ... Anyone know?

Should be the same Jet! It says for all 5 series. Thought about wrapping it too with the carbon vinyl wrap for the interior
