Modification pix of my new 2015 SG M6 GC

C's Bimmer · 06-23-2014, 08:32 PM

Picked up the car last week from my dealer, after doing ED last month. I did a lot of the minor mods, with a lot more still to come. The car goes to my body shop on Wednesday for the rest of the work. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pix. A professional photographer is scheduled to shoot my M5 and M6GC once the work is complete, so I promise to post better pictures on the next thread.

Here's a list of what is being done and what has already been done:

TO DO (all parts are sitting in my garage and will be transported over to my body shop on Wednesday, along with the car):

21" wheels (brand and model will be announced/shown in the next pix update thread)
Vorsteiner Front Splitter
Vorsteiner Rear Diffuser
Vorsteiner Decklid Spoiler
Exhaust (brand and style will also be announced/shown in the next update thread)
BMW Roundels (chrome circumference painted black - front and rear)
Body Color painted chrome door handles
Brakes
Alcantara Steering Wheel
Interior LED Light Upgrade
Blinder HP-905 Laser Jammer Install
Opti-Coat (Car and wheels)

COMPLETED:

Coded - too many codes to list, but what a big difference some of them make. Doesn't compare to the list of codes done on my E60 M5.
20% Llumar Tint - Sides and Rear
Hardwired V1
Carbon Fiber Shift Knob
Red RPI Ram Air Scoops
IND Gloss Black Front Kidney Grills (I opted not to include the M6 badge, as I felt it looks cleaner without it)
IND Body Color Side Markers (w/ German Flag/MFEST colors)
IND Matte Black M6 Rear Badge (w/ German Flag/MFEST colors)
IND Body Color Rear Reflectors
IND Body Color Rear License Plate Frame
BMC Air Filters
Black BMW Roundels (Front and Rear -- chrome circumference to be painted black this week)
Black BMW Wheel Caps (soon to be Winter Wheels only)

Stay tuned...more to come!

Hey man car looks insane. any chance you can tell me where you got the black on black logos for the hood and the tires and im guessing you have one on the trunk as well. I can't find them anywhere. Car looks great.

bigbrian · 06-23-2014, 09:37 PM

I love the look! It's different looking and unique!

Where did you get the BMW emblem for the front of the car?

LOL! I had a feeling you would chime in -- hopefully you like the finished product.

Awesome C, u s****k!!!!!!

Congrats and cant wait to see it in the metal!!

ice7 · 06-24-2014, 03:09 PM

Nice! For the kidney grills, did you just pull really hard to pop them off the front bumper or did you remove the entire front bumper?

I didn't remove the bumper, but I did unscrew the top section of screws (and pins) and pulled the bumper forward. I did it solo and my right forearm still is bruised -- 3 days later. I didn't break one clip, but I've done this mod so many times on all my previous BMW's that I'm used to it. I would recommend another set of hands when you do it. Much easier and nicer on your hands. The real pain were the RPI scoops. A stubby screwdriver and very long screwdriver are key, since they are tap screws and require some force while turning.

carlos@velosdesignwerks · 06-24-2014, 05:11 PM

Very tasteful so far. Excited to see more.

BTF13M6 · 06-25-2014, 12:47 AM

Nice!

Just wondering, where did you get the RPI Scoops from?

bigbrian · 06-25-2014, 11:49 AM

your scoops look different than mine. I have not installed mine but they are shaped differently. Hmm....

Where did you get yours Brian? Trying to get some for mine but all the vendors I see online have it for the E63 M6.

Eloy (owner of RPI) sent me them directly, but I got them through TrinityAutoSport (Joe is the owner). We're all old friends, but I use Trinity for all of my modifications on all of my BMW's (both past and present). They are hands down the best vendor I have ever dealt with (and I've dealt with a lot) and he gets me the best prices. His service is outstanding too.

You might have the F10 M5 scoops. Eloy actually sent me a set of the F10 M5 scoops too, for my buddies M5, and they are smaller than the M6 scoops.

If you look on RPI's site, you can see the difference between the two.

looking good C thanks again =)

bigbrian · 06-25-2014, 01:56 PM

Maybe it's just the way they look in your picture. They just look bigger vertically than the ones I have sitting in my garage.

Here are the ones I have:

uhn2000 · 06-25-2014, 02:41 PM

Love the updates you are doing just wanted to know where you got the Interior LEDs from ?
