My Blackout [E60 M5]
Here is my take on it... Black trim, Paint matched smoked tails, black gloss wheels and H&R springs












Since these shots, I took some red tape and time attacked my wheels for the heck of it, and installed Demon Eyes... I also had my side vents red too but it was too much and since removed it out of these following pics. I photoshopped my ambers out of some of the pics too incase someone asks... I'm looking at having a customs shop bake my lights open and paint my reflectors. I also just ordered an Eisenmann Race system w/ sect 1 and 2.















I need to get a black plate bracket and some blacked out M5 badges, as well as black roundels for my wheels. The Time attack on the wheels is temporary, just tape I can peel it off... Deciding whether or not I like it, figured I'd see how many car washes it stuck on for lol.

I need to grab a couple shots of the Red eyes now also... Lemmie know what ya think, constructive criticism is cool

Looks good overall. Not sure I like the red on the gills though. In fact I think I like it just all black....

+1 on the gills, keep 'em black. I'd put clear reflectors in the headlamps. The rest of the car looks sick! Like Darth Vader from hell! Very intimidating to see you roll up like that at a stop; I'd be like Smokey from Friday 'DAAAMMMN'!

+1. The black-out is very clean and the red definitely detracts from it. With the red time attack AND the gills it starts to look a litttle like the batmobile.

You must be a mind reader. This is the exact vision I have for my M5, minus the red gills. I'm inspired. Are those stock wheels, only painted?

Lol thanks, I do love Star Wars... though..

I already did remove the red on the side vents. The wheels are painted not powdercoated and the time attack is just a sticker I can peel off. I figured I'd just leave it t for however many car washes it lasts.

Blacked out M5's will always look nice. The red stripe looks good also.

One Q: Is it legal in the US to put some LED's / neon under / on your car? If it is, it would look pretty sick to put some red LED's in the side vents.

Now imagine a black M5 with that setup flying by...
