veryyyy similar look to what I am going for. SICK so far!

wdimagineer · 06-28-2012, 07:16 PM

Very nice. I have similar mods. They look great on black.

What style HRE wheels? I'm running P40SC's on my 550xi.

joe@ptech · 06-28-2012, 07:37 PM

We are waiting on a set of P40SC in Brush Tinted. Should be any day now...

EV0LVE · 06-28-2012, 08:05 PM

That works!

mouivann · 06-28-2012, 08:56 PM

Very nice so far!!

m sport rims are really classy, nice, and just aggressive enough - not overdone

Cool.

F10 HRE · 06-29-2012, 09:59 AM

I have the same model, color, spoiler, & diffusor. Hhmmm...

joe@ptech · 06-29-2012, 11:54 AM

That is funny. We were just noticing that most F10s we see around the shop area are either white or black M Sport models. Most are 535i and only a couple 550i.

fastNugly · 06-29-2012, 02:35 PM

Simply gorgeous

P-Town550i · 06-30-2012, 04:52 AM

Space Gray M Sport coming in about 12 weeks.... = )

mroll320 · 06-30-2012, 05:20 AM

I love that diffuser! does anybody know where I can get one in UK or europe? or anywhere!?

Jet in Oz · 06-30-2012, 05:43 AM

'Scuse my french but far-kin ossam exhaust tips (imo)! Love the Dinan tatts on them too

Is it just the picture or do they sit a little too far out with the standard M Sport diffuser but with the other they tuck in nicely?

joe@ptech · 06-30-2012, 05:42 PM

We had planned to do a diffuser with the Dinan exhaust. They do stick out pretty far and don't quite look right with the stock piece. We test fitted the Oem M5 rear diffuser, but the Dinan tips were way too big.

rmastale · 06-30-2012, 06:00 PM

That beast needs some kw v3 coils. ASAP.

joe@ptech · 06-30-2012, 06:12 PM

Suspension is sitting on the shelf. Just waiting on our wheels to finish. That will be our next mod hopefully next couple weeks.

wdimagineer · 07-01-2012, 07:13 AM

The diffuser looks good. I had been considering one before committing to trade my car on the F10 M5. A little annoyed you picked the P40SC but whatever.

The Vorsteiner piece is from a sponsor here that we source all our Vorsteiner stuff from, SV-Concepts. They ship all over so he should be able to ship to Europe.

So Dinan can't do shorter tips for the OEM M Sport? Shame if that's the case as I think 70% of this forum is OEM. Can you PM me the damage in terms of dollars on the Dinan exhaust and the Vorsteiner Diffuser so that I may ponder please.

Thanks guys.

Nobleman · 07-01-2012, 02:18 PM

Joe, ur Vorsteiner diffuser look sick bro!!! Carbon fiber really well match with ur Jet black color. Look forward to see ur upgrades.

joe@ptech · 07-10-2012, 02:20 PM

After a very long wait, my wheels finally arrived today. Sorry for the crappy iPhone photo. More to come, next up tires.

I am hoping to run an aggressive tire size front and back.
