I've been up to the usual, tweaking little things here and there on the beast.
Thought I would share the most recent changes:
Installed a new Whalen shift knob with engraved ///M5 logo, ordered it direct from Doug Whalen, what a great guy to work with! Also had my body shop do a custom jet black ///M5 trunk badge...and changed the rear diffuser by painting the aluminum vent trim ring a shadow gray/black with a machined silver edge to tone down the look of the center vent (make it darker and also stand out less).
Also decided to install a Bimmian e-brake handle I bought a while back since it is similar to the look of the Whalen knob.
And...toned down the exhaust some with a Magnaflow muffler setup using my same custom tips from the previous Borla race exhaust.
Hope everyone is doing well!
