Love your F15

Its great that I get to see your combination of mods because mine would look very similar if I did get the F15 next year. Still torn between AW, MW or go with Space Gray again like my current F10.

Hey

Is your gear stick the performance carbon fibre one, or just the M replacement badge?

Cheers

Is the euro light switch plug and play like the E9X M3, that is the rear fog light bulb is already installed from the factory?

Very well done - enjoy!

Your car looks amazing, man! If you don't mind me asking, why is the front right air vent half open/see through in comparison to the closed left air vent? It looks like you've done a modification on the right side. What is that exactly? Improvement for air flow? Thanks .

It's not. Requires wiring and coding. I'm running ECE taillights as well, which also required wiring.

Great mods! Truly a one of a kind F15. I'll keep an eye out when I'm in SF, I'm sure I can spot that car from a mile away. Congrats.

Nice job! I really want to see the M performance stuff installed on a sapphire black M50d though. I'm getting the latter in circa 1 month and having mixed feelings about the diffusers/mirror caps/kidney grills. In theory it should look very natural on black... in theory.

Looks fantastic!! I was going to get the front intake air trim until I found out the cost $136.95 per side from Turner Motorsport. Maybe in a while after I get over the sticker shock, but I'll pass on it for now. Reading your past post, you said they were difficult to install, could you elaborate please!

Looks great, but if I was going to do all these mods on an almost fully loaded 50i, I would've just waited for the X5M.

True. And I will be ordering one. Most of what I bought should bolt on nicely to that car.
