Love it! Those Vossens really suit the stance of the M5. What other mods have you done to your M5?

Sweet. How is the interior holding up? Front bumper re-sprayed?
These cars clean up so nicely. Every time I give mine a good wash, I fall in love with her all over again.

I don't know if the front bumper has been resprayed but I just had the rear one resprayed. The rear had started flaking, so just had it redone and the diffuser in gloss black. The interior is decent but I've been freshening it up little by little

thanks! front is 20x9 and rear is 20x10.5 with 245/35 and 275/30's. They are for a new 3 series so I did use spacers. I used a 15mm up front and a 20mm out back.
about the syclone, it's a ls2breathing/big rear tire showtruck.

Interesting you mentioned hte rear started flaking. My bumper in the crease (really hard to notice unless you are inches away) has some clearcoat lift. Hasn't spread in 4 months and it's not flaked, just seperated from the paint. Anyone know if that's "normal" on these cars after awhile?
Curious as to what significant repairs have been done to the car with that mileage.
