Thanks, the hard part isn't finding the wheels, it's finding the correct wheel emblem to fit it after they're installed because the stock ones won't fit the new ones.

I had to look all over the place to find a blacked out grill with Night vision - Ultimately I ended up buying a new grill and having a custom auto shop near me dip it, but they are no where to be found black on the open market that I could see.

Would luv to tune mine but to be honest I rarely drive mine I may do 50 miles on the weekend that's about it my commuter is a 17 f15 that gets all the goodies so it's kinda hard to justify to my parole officer aka the wife why I'm spending 1.5-2K on a tuner. Now for looks she's cool with it but everything else that's a fight only cause it sits up all week and I can hear her mouth now u don't even drive the shit but u breaking the bank and it sits in the garage under a cover all week and after her calling me a retard and selfish a few times and her on the phone with her sisters bad mouthing me lol 😂 so not worth the headache lol damn I wish I was 25 again and single 😂😂😂😂

I will definitely share the results, I'm not a "car" guy but I'll share my thoughts on the power upgrade and sound, it's $5K all in, both the tuning and the exhaust.

Here is my 740Ld Exclusive. Only thing I've done to it, apart from clean it, is replace the 740Ld badge with a gloss black one. Otherwise it is as it came from the factory.
