Modding based on public opinion is NEVER a good idea.

The owner needs to make the decisions based on what they deem acceptable (after all, they're the one who will have drop the $s and drive it).

Most BMW owners choose to go the OE+ mod route, this is where, at a glance it looks stock, yet under closer examination things are different (if it looks modded from 100yds away, you went too far in most BMW owners eyes).

Just don't be thin skinned if you rice it out and most find it distasteful.
