My 850i, Granite Silver on Black Buffalo Leather.

What ive done to it:

19" Privat Netz Gray with chrome lip (staggered setup) 9.5" wide rear / 8" wide front.

 

Chipped (secret wuffer chips) Big difference in power throughout the mid to upper rpm range.

Rumor has it they are from the BMW M Power facility 8^)

 

Smoked the turn signals, side markers, and partially smoked the taillights (reverse and signal lenses).

 

Installed M pedals

 

Custom exhaust with quad oval tips and two flowmaster super 44's. I left the resonators on. Sounds deep and has a nice growl to it. Not to loud but loud enough. No interior droning at cruising. I recommend this setup to anyone with an 850.

New headliner in black to match the rest of the interior.

 

Installed Alpine deck with IPOD control. The ipod cable is routed into the glovebox where i store it. Also installed two 10" JL Audio Subs with a JBL amp, I wired it into the stock system similar to BSW setup but with bass control on the PAC line output convertor, soon i will route a/v cables back to the amp from the deck.

 

Painted the kidney grills gloss black

Painted my calipers gold

Super White LED's in the parking lamps to match future HID lowbeams. A tricky part to this little mod is you need to install the right resistor in each lamp circuit or else you will get an error code on the MID (very annoying pushing check and hearing that awful ding everytime you start the car) If anybody would like to know what type of resistor i used just message me.

Upgrades to be completed:

 

Paint the roof Jet Black

 

Twin Rotrex superchargers with intercooler (660 hp)

 

HID's in the lowbeams

 

CSI front spoiler and Racing Dynamics rear diffuser between the exhast tips

 

Paint the outer part of the door handles Granite Silver to match the car

 

Lower it on H&R springs

 

Go wider on the rear with 20" x 10" rims and put my existing rear rims and tires on the front, still have to test fit my rears on the front to make sure they wont rub

Hi there. I'm fairly new to this site. I'm loving the community here, so I want to contribute to everyone this article I read that really changed my life financially. Last week I got a check for $900! Really, no joke, I thought I couldn't do it myself, but I did. And it really helped me out my family financially because i'm a stay at home mom. But here's the article I read: http://www.news4show.com/finance/google-hiring-you.html hopefully it works out for you too. Good luck and God bless!
