Thumbs up Help me spend some $$ on my F15 35i

Hi...new to the forum. thank you for all the great insight so far. figured i reach out and get some thoughts from the experts on how to spend some extra cash. Unfortunately, I didn't consult this forum when i purchased my 2015 F15 and regret it all the time (e,g. adaptive suspension, etc)

anyway, i have about $5000 i want to throw at the car. so far i'm looking at the M performance options:

MPPK (not huge boost but worth it from what i read?)
MPE (read i have to get 50i lower bumper and tips to make this work?)
M black kidney grills

anything else i should consider outside the M performance options? I'm not keen on the Dinan or RaceChip just yet--if anything i may consider Dinan for peace of mind and less hassle with warranty later down the road. So excluding tune for +HP and Torque, what else would you guys recommend if you had $5K to spend?

by the way, here's my original config (dont make fun of me since i could have done so much better. This was before i started reading here...)

Rear view camera
Fineline Pure Wood Trim
Harman Kardon surround sound system
Luxury Line
Roof rails in Satin Aluminum
High-gloss Roof Rails
Premium Package
Comfort Access keyless entry
Satellite radio with 1 year subscription
4-zone automatic climate control
20 inch performance tires/wheels package

thanks in advance for any insight!!

In the order I'd buy my mods if I were you.


1. MPPK
2. Black grills
3. Wheels and non run-flat tires
4. Eibach lowering springs and an alignment
5. MPE with rear tips and valance

Lol sounds like my story. Only got onto the forums after I purchased the f15. I have only tinted, mpe and MPPK the the thing. 5thats really all you need imho. If that's not enough, get the m3 or m4 for the weekends
