Hello I've been on the board for a year now, thought I would share some pics from last weekend that a friend of mine took. I know I know my exhaust is not right but every shop I take my car to get this fixed they tell me the space is so tight so if anyone in the Austin area that can recommend a reputable shop much will be appreciated also somewhere that will be able to close in the gap I have on the hood.
Enjoy.

Sorry, just find that hideous.... No offense, and everyone is entitled to their own taste. If it makes you happy, then good for you!

Cheers!

Moe b - you should give Colvin Automotive a call. They can resolve the exhaust issues. Not sure on the hood -- non-OEM stuff almost never seems to fit correctly.

everyone is entitled to their own opinion, just lower the car, remove the film of headlights and tailights have some bodyshop give your trunk,hood, and lip that dry carbon look and you will be good to go, dont forget some brembos gran tourismo in yellow to go with your theme. just my o2. good luck!!

the car looks okay. it needs a drop, the film from the headlights has to go. I'm not feeling the hood just b/c the fitment looks horrible, but it should look like dry carbon like Andres said. I really like the trunk though, it should be done in a dry carbon look as well...

also, it looks like they didn't vinyl the park sensors or headlight washer cut-out in the bumper properly.

good luck with the exhaust.

Is that headlight tint legal? What front lip and wheels do you have on the car?

toss the hood, lower the car, and fix the exhaust hangers..........then it'll look better

While I prefer a more subtle appearance for an M5, I still think your car looks very cool. I like the yellow scoops, M5board sticker, and lip on the wheels. I'd suggest finishing your car's look by lowering it a bit.
