Luckily I survived and I am here grateful to share with you my build! I was sad to say goodbye to my MY15 Space Grey F15, but man was i excited to get into my first ever M car!

Decent trade in value, a great discount off MSRP and $6500 of BMW incentives = a deal I can not refuse. I was now the proud owner of a MY20 Alpine White with black/beige interior F97 Comp package. I said to myself it's great the way it is, but who am I really kidding. Thanks to great forum sponsors like r33_RGSport IND-Distribution as well as a personal friend of mine who isn't a listed vendor here on the forums. The mods were flowing in, first thing on hand were a set of Vossen wheels (HF-5) in anthracite, and a set of MSS height adjustable springs to lower the car as well as helping with the "harsh" ride. As well as 5% Llumar ceramic tint all around and Air 80 on the front windshield.

Then as time progressed, r33_RGSport kept posting pics of upcoming front lips that were about to be released and I pulled the trigger on the RKP lip. I am glad I did as the build quality is amazing as well as wrapping around the whole front of the bumper.

As I thought I was pretty much done after this, my wallet was screaming at me. Unfortunately a great forum member Mr. jsnkim happens to live close by and I got to hear first hand how wonderful the Akrapovic exhaust sounds. So a couple of dollars later I have an axel back Akra installed on my car.

I also have a set of low dust pads from r33_RGSport which are working out PERFECTLY! No more squeaking and my wheels still look clean after driving for a week or two. Here are a couple of pics of the car as it is now, until the next mod!
