Congrats. The M5 has been my most favorite BMW. I just returned my 335 as well. Miss the low end with the JB3. I traded in my 05 M3 cab for the M5.

I just purchased RPi scoops, BMC air filters, block off plates, UUC Corsa exhaust, Eibach pro-kit springs, and smoked side lenses with InvisiLite bulbs  I plan to powdercoat my stock wheels, do you guys think I should get them painted black or dark gunmetal?

My personal preference is the Dark Gunmetal. I think the black wheels don't offer enough contrast and sort of look like the wheels are just caked with brake dust. JMHO.

Hey Mike, it's nice to see you on here  lol no not really but I wouldn't say it's long and forgotten, if it weren't for my E46 I wouldn't have picked up modding or met the people I have, so deep down inside, it'll still be missed

I searched for pictures and saw someone post a silver gray with glossy black and I wasn't a fan, I can't seem to find anyone with dark gunmetal but I did find a Silverstone on gunmetal and it looked good. I'll keep searching but for now I'm leaning towards the gunmetal...
