nice ride!!! welcome to the forum...

thanks bud

I like everything except the sprayed tails, the vent visors and the faded yellowed fender side markers, other than that looks much better than when you bought it, LOVE the exhaust work, must sound extremely mean.

You gonna do your front windows tinted too? Would make the look more seamlessly black IMO

I just had them done yesterday
exhaust sound awesome its pretty quiet but when u get on it. it screams :)
only heard it once from outside of car

You're heading in the right direction in modings. I do agree with Ricky on the blk out taillights though. The clear/wht signal lenses stand out too much.
Ricky, don't hate on the window visors. I got them too ;)

it came like this
no reason to throw them away

Looks good!!

That's a lot of good stuff done in 2 months. Have you decided on what performance software you will be installing?

Love it!

Get used to it being dirty 3 hours after you wash it.

what size are those spacers?

Not sure on software
DINAN
ACTIVE AUTOWERKS
OE TUNING
Who else is out there ?

20mm front 35 back

You get more bang for your bucks with Active Autowerk.
Had that done on my 750 and loving it.

I chose Dinan so it was matched to the other Dinan mods. I did every engine mod to get to stage 4 engine and transmission software. Also because I knew the hp and torque gains I could expect. I have checked their numbers and they are conservative. I don't know much about other options but have heard Dinan is on the high end $$$ wise. Also Dinan must be installed by au

Authorized shop, no DIY.

Looks mean!
How do you like the drop? Did you get rid of the rear air suspension? Or just do the links?

Did you get programmer or send it out to AUTOWERKS

I still have rear air
Just lowering links
Love it

Send the ECU to active Autowerk .best part if you remove the cat headers ... They can get rid of the erro code for you too.

but your car is such perfection I can't hate on yours! I guess I just never saw the reason for them unless smoking a butt outside the window in the rain lol

thats why we mod our cars to our taste and we're all unique though, definitely not hating just pointing out not my thing.

OP I think a set of the $240 red/smoked LED tail lights would look awesome on your ride :)

Welcome aboard! Your X already looks miles better... all black has "evil" written all over it. ;)

mrbmwx5,

Checked the AA site. Couldn't find anything for the 4.6. Interested in the cost and the gains. Do you know? What error codes are you referencing?

How do you like the nitto motivo tires? Don't know if to get those or dws
