Weather in Miami is generally pretty good but the PPF really keeps it clean and makes the paint really pop.

To each his own. IMO, the M5 is an amazing blend of luxury/super car...and a drop like this doesn't belong on it.

I see teenagers running around Dallas with drops like this on their Honda Civic's...and this look cheapens the M5. But hey, what do I know...if you like it, go with it.

I think your car looks amazing as is. Would change the reflectors out and add front wheel spacers, but that's about it. Enjoy the car!

Brother it only has to be for you!!! Let us know how the suspension feels once you've had time to push it a little.

Some pics at your driving height will quiet the crowd I'm sure!

Enjoy!!!!

I'll buck the trend and say black wheels would work very well on this car. They would contrast very well with the paint and tie all of the gloss black bits ( mirrors, grills, side vents, rear diffuser etc.).

Another M5C owner recently did this on an AW car (IIRC) and it looked great.

I say go for it ....

For me it wasn’t really about slamming the car more about height adjustability on the fly. I wanted to go lower than my m550i springs but I knew if I did that + a lip I’d be losing lips pretty fast.

99% of the time the car sits like this



But sometimes this is just fun to look at
