It's not a Rarri but it's Rosso Corsa (M5)
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I've got a long list of OEM+ upgrades for it. But after a mishap with...ordering the wrong wheels. I took it in stride and decided to buy new 789Ms and powdercoat them in gloss black. Dealer is putting them on for me ahead of delivery. More pictures to come tomorrow and I'll document some of the upgrades as they are completed! List of upgrades: 1. Carbon parts: Mperformance front lip, Mperformance side skirts, CS trunk spoiler. 2. Gloss Black Vinyl for roof: Couldn't give up the sunroof, my son and wife love them. This is the middle ground 3. Wheel spacers, along with Gloss Black 789Ms 4. IND painted reflectors, logo projectors, etc. 5. Mperformance suspension for lowering just a tad bit, mainly for the front. 6. Dinan strut ball joint and suspension link kits 7. 35% ceramic window tint 8. Detail, PPF, ceramic coating Last edited by mpower3330; 07-15-2022 at 12:30 PM.. |

Still has delivery suspension blocks on it (ride height will come down a bit) but new wheels make a huge difference.

Great ride!! Enjoy it in good health.
Love the powder-coated 789's … went this route myself. Visually, it also appears to add more depth and concavity to the wheel. The red against the black wheels is 🔥! Post pics with the CF bits as those are going to make the car pop even more!!!

First impression driving: more refined in terms of feel, a bit less raw than my 2019 m5 comp. Also, I may be crazy but the rear looks like it sits higher than my 2019 did.

Home, I’ve added the IND painted reflectors and gloss black honeycomb reflector delete. My hands are definitely sore!

I didn’t want carbon brakes, so no gold. I thought the blue calipers would be a nice contrast to the red paint and be in the M theme. Can’t go wrong with any of the above. I was also worried the red caliper would be a different red than the paint and be clashing.

Spacers make a big difference. I never put them on my 2019 M5 Comp, I should have.

It just looks significantly better with the Mperformance front lip, side skirts and trunk spoiler. IND has been fantastic with sourcing and delivering all of these parts. I don't think I noticed the need as much with my prior BSM dark color, but with this lighter color it's amazing. 35% ceramic tint helps as well. fshngry and josec70 were definitely the influencers on these purchases!

Gloss black vinyl wrap done. Dark contrast roof helps bring out the clean lines of the F90 IMO. I would've paid extra to have a gloss black done from factory and get the sunroof. This works in its place!

Great looking build. For those of us who like the sunroof too much to go to the sexy and better looking CF roof, a gloss black roof, regardless of car color, helps the car regain some of its sporty image. On your Rossa Corsa it’s even more effective! I love the way gloss black almost makes the sunroof invisible when it’s closed. Reduces the mass of the car visually also.
