Car is still sitting at Mercedes, turbos should be here Monday and DP's are on the way. I have a bunch of goodies to throw on when I get my car back. Bumpers, wings, diverter valves, demon eyes, canards, interior touch ups and a ton of other cosmetic things. Can't wait, counting down the days!!!!!! DME tune after that and she's all set... for now anyway😂🤣😂

They are 20" KMC Wishbones and they are satin black originally. I plasti-dipped them a purplish color shift but I think I'm going back to black again. I hit a pothole on the freeway and bent a rim so insurance is covering a lot of it and these will now be the winter wheels so I'm in the market for a newer set, with more concave and lip.
Here's a better pic of them, I used a Grey base and that it a lot lighter then it originally planned when I used black base coat.

Personally I love them. I also live in Utah so the weather is similar to yours, it's nice when it's snowing or raining. I always have my windows cracked for my system so it's nice to not have that wind noise either, it also prevents that annoying whistle that I used to get from my mirror caps.
Sorry I don't have a better picture of them but when I get my car back I will send some closer photos. I recommend for atleast the winter months, especially for those that vape or smoke.

BMW Dealer wouldn't do anything with turbos unless they were OEM, I called both dealers here. I have blown turbos, so I'm rebuilding them and adding diverter valves, CL DP's now and then meth kit and tune over Christmas break.

My sister-in-law works for Mercedes and my warranty is covering most of my cost and so I have little cost occurred. I tried to do it myself, it would be done and for a lot less, but atleast it will be warrantied by Mercedes now. N63 in Utah has limited options on shops locally.

No, it's made specifically for the 550i. Unfortunately, Dinan opted to design the tips for the stock 550i diffuser, so an M5 spec diffuser wouldn't work since the muffler tips are further out to the edge of the bumper.
