What did you do to your 5 series today?

gabypr · 07-16-2017, 01:35 PM

Yesterday I took my f10 to my detailer to apply IGL ceramic coating to the rims and calipers. He also did some touch up to the paint

lsturbointeg · 07-17-2017, 09:29 AM

Here's what i did today...took off the rear bumper and side skirts and off to the Auto body for paint

There's a thread on this topic somewhere when these lights first came out but most people agreed that it shouts out "dbag" because of how other people look at BMW owners. I'll see if I can pull up the thread. All that matters is if you like it

lsturbointeg · 07-18-2017, 09:21 AM

Here's the PU front splitter i ordered which I'll be wrapping in the 5d carbon fiber vinyl

Hence my hesitance. I already have the BMW lights and am seriously thinking of changing them to the stock (though LED) lights.

found that thread

Honestly I wouldnt install those led door lights. It just doesnt look oem and decrease the luxury and value of the car itself. Thats my though.

Excellent point! I'm still not sure (though I've been told they look very nice and classy) about the BMW lights I have in there now.

Oh yes!! I cannot wait to get it on the car.

I can see this thread is probably not for this.... but what I did to my F10 over the weekend was spray fence stain overspray all over it... and my Land Rover... and my C10...

If anyone has ever used a Wagner Sprayer... it certainly makes staining or painting larger areas super quick...it also does a great job of costing you $1,000 to have a pro machine polish and wax your cars afterwards
