Most impressive is that your custom plate was still available. Nobody thought to claim BEAST? Great looking car.

You keeping the other x5?

Looks awesome!! So the mystery of the second IND black car is solved! How do you like the front lip?? I think it looks sharp. Are those bayerns for your winter setup? They look mean - but no staggered stance right? Thoughts on how that looks from behind?

Nice work though. You went all out. She pretty

Yes she's the mysterious second IND F85. I love the lip, totally transformed the front end. The Bayern's are for the winter setup, non-staggered. Looks horrendous from behind during the winter. Jnsol's setup was probably more beast-like for the winter. I guess I don't really care during the winter since she's mostly covered in snow anyhow.

Thank you!

Wow good to know. I don't think so but I'm headed to IND soon and I'll ask them to check it out. But I've had it since last December without any issues as far as I know.

Nice build!!!

XX66MM , BMC air filter is 2-3 weeks out to order. Planning to do stocking order, but doesn't seem like a great demand.

Let me know... Or you can run a test yourself just flick the switch and look under the rear bumper if the exhaust opens up on both sides. I called to figure it out but the only answer I got from eas is if you don't like it return it back to ind

Butt dyno can't detect 2-5HP increase, that's less than 1% in change. If it's 10%, then you can feel it.

On BMC filters, let it sit on paper towels over night. They do come overly oiled and will throw CEL on BMWs. Learned this from the M5 forums, most of them went back to OEM filters because they didn't remove excess oil.

Looks great! How is that roof rail wrap holding up? Did you have to remove the rails for wrapping?
I have satin aluminum rails as well and its kinda ruining the look of the car (mine is Carbon metallic black)

Ah I see. Was it an easy process to remove the rails? I think it requires the headliner to be removed, right?

No idea - IND took care of it for me, but yes my understanding is that the roof liner had to be removed.
