When I first got the car, it didnt have any shield at all and the engine bay was getting filthy with all the water splashing up and to add some protection to my power steering lines. I was orginally going to to get a OEM splash shield but saw the turner on sale for close to 200 dollars less than retail.

Finally came around to installing the M sport side skirts. Different is subtle but nice. Also vinyl wrapped the handle inserts to matte black - probably going to take the wrap off eventually and paint them with SEM Trim Black Satin to properly match the rest of the trim.
Note: handle picture is pre-M sport side skirt install.

Keeping the URO parts as a reminder, stay Geniune or OEM, mistakenly ordered at first glance to think it was OEM, read deeper into the brand, Not installing the Oil cooler gasket or OFHG with URO parts, too critical, I travel often and need quality and longevity! Water pump and thermostat and MM flange/ hose on schedule to be ordered, Will include new OEM or geniune for parts mentioned, Good morning and happy saturday 5er owners!

Added the almost last parts to my 550i. The Dinan free flow system really gave me that American V8 vibe (valves forced open). I might do a exhaust resonator delete to get some louder gurgles, gonna post a vid soon. Also installed a eBay front splitter, only played $78 bucks and I think it turned out perfect. Lastly, a semi sporty rear diffuser. The OEM one was a light gray and didn't match well with the color.
Bonus: Blacked out the badges for the "Heritage" emblem. |

Finally decided to order a Quaife LSD for the 550i, from Birds Auto in UK.
Prefabricated complete diff to avoid a long downtime for the car, and leaving it to the Birds Auto experts who have done many of these conversions. It requires cutting of the welded ring gear and some other machine work to convert it from the stock diff. No coding required since the electronic diff is controlled by ABS when wheels slip. Already negotiated installation labor on home soil once it arrives. Just gotta order some gear 75W-90 gear oil, probably will be Amsoil. Need to figure out the required volume. |
