Awesome, congrats! The SS interior is very much underrated. Never liked them in previous cars that I owned but suits the E70 very well.

Thanks! Picked up the ECS kit since they come with the extended bolts appropriate for the spacer. Just ensure that they're the matching hub diameter for the fronts and rears.

WHERE did your foglights go??
I never paid that close attention, but are they deleted on the M because the air duct openings in the bumper are SO FREAKIN HUGE?

Ummm... that's the stock setup. Much needed for all the radiators strapped to the front end.

Holy crap its Doctor M! I might be mistaken if its the same guy or not, but I used to follow your e46 m3 build on m3forums.net years ago! You knew all there was to know about those cars and had a legendary e46 build!
Congrats on the X5M and those tips look sexy!

Haha, apologies but you're referring to someone else under a similar handle. Thanks for your kind words though! Glad to join the group.

Very nice truck! Thanks for sharing. Please try and get some before and after pics and post impressions of the ride quality after the install. Not much feedback on the Dinan lowering springs and bumpstops.

Thanks, that's the plan. I fear that the stock runflats aren't going to help me get a true feeling of the improvement. That only means more $helling out in the future for wheels

Woot! Let me know how it goes...I really want to get them, but have been putting it off and worried about Hawaii safety check.

The Dinan springs are on my list. Looking forward to hearing your impressions.
It seems that many people completely swap out the the suspension for coilovers. Though I would like to keep the EDC. In matter of fact I've been searching for a place that can have the shocks rebuild when they wear out. |

Dinan springs on my list as well. I've read that the H&R's (even the 1.2" drop) look great, but the ride suffers. The drop on the Dinan springs is less, but if it improves handling and the ride still stays good, I guess that's the best option sans full coilovers.

Dinan springs and rear links getting installed! Can't wait to see/feel the outcome.

Thanks for the measurements! I might end up cutting mine to match when I get them. The drop shouldn't be dramatic but any change to your suspension in Hawaii requires reconstruction inspection every year which has to be scheduled far in advance and then you have to get an alignment within 30 days before hand. I'm eager to see your drop and if it's too noticeable I might wait until after my next inspection.
