Beautiful car.
Great wheels, stance, rear diffuser.

I would fully debadge car for the CLEAN look consistent with everything else you have.

Or

Put proper M badges on it as it is an M5.

Either way, nice ride. Tasteful Clean Mods.

Does this qualify? (Posting with deference and respect.)

Next level Mad Max status. I’d love to crack a joke but I can’t find anything funny. Clipped from WSHH, wasn’t able to post the video. Please remove if inappropriate.

Can’t imagine if the machine guns were operated by the idrive system!

Saw a portimao blue M340i in Orland park, IL sometime last week. Car looked pretty good except it had a black M3 badge (placed below the rear right taillight). It was an M340i and not an M3/4. I couldn't take a pic as the lights turned green just as I reached it and it turned left. But yes. A nice car screwed up by shitty badging. Haha.

Vandalism is totally different than someone putting a fake badge on their own car!

They're only fooling people who don't care.

If you actually know BMW's naming system you're not fooled.
