Thank you… unfortunately I won’t be able to make it to mpact. I’ve been very busy I haven’t been able to attend any events as yet.

Very well done indeed.

Those wheels are beautiful! Do you mind sharing wheel and tire specs?

Neptune7 · 08-20-2023, 11:35 AM

This car looks amazing. Have you tried out chrome front grills or matte painted ones? I wonder if they’d complement the look even more.Imran@Evolve ‘s M5 looked great with chrome grills on a similar car.

Thanks… Igor_M5 have been telling me that I should change the m5 badges to a satin or matte. We might try and the grill and see how it looks.

Very impressive build, she's beautiful!

Question about the OEM M5CS front lip... did you cut a notch out of your front bumper to fit the lip?

Yes we had to cut it because that notch is specifically for the cs

That’s a beautiful build. I love it.

In curious what the conversion costs and wondering if it would’ve made more sense to just get a 2021? Either way, looks great. Love it.

Definitely less than getting a lci and I already had most of the parts from someone else that also did the conversion and was getting rid of their car. I also wanted a tunable car without going through the extra hassle.

Pretty colour not wheels comrade

jmack123 · 08-24-2023, 08:12 AM

Love the idea of the LCI conversion. Not my fav wheels, but love it nonetheless. The LCI is a beautiful design.

Mr.blue · 08-24-2023, 08:41 AM

Very nice! You were very luck to find an F90 with low mileage and be fully loaded. Awesome build!

AM340iMiami · 08-24-2023, 08:41 AM

Looks incredible! Congrats.

OnEighty is great, they did my headlight blackout on my F87

Custom frozen blue paint. Oneighty does a great job. They’ve done all my cars never had any issues at all. Lasted for years.

Amazing. Mind sharing which BC Forged wheels and which wheel color?

hufington · 08-24-2023, 10:58 AM

I like it as I am partial to the color range. Great job.

How do you like the brushed clear face with the matte grey? I have a stealth PPF skyscraper grey M550i and I am trying to figure out a good wheel color that will go with it. Had been thinking either black or grey but the brushed clear is honestly stunning in how it doesn’t clash and really makes the wheels stand out.
