You mean sell off? Yes, I doubt it will be any good to keep in my store. Likewise, I have a very mint and well polished set of bodykit from my Activehybrid 5 that I am prepared to let go for a song to anyone interested. You can choose either front, rear or the pair of side skirts which I believe all of them should fit an F10 right? Anyway, pics of my AH5 before conversion if anyone wants to know how the bodykit looks like.

Actually, I don't mind to part with the 535 front brake over kopi-c siew tai + ....+.... until I hear about the ah pek oem kit, which I have been putting up with for about a year.

Anyway, let me resolve what brakes to get first....

Thanks Jason, but first, I don't like a rectangular exhaust as it is too "Lexus". With all the curves of the F10, round exhaust looks best - single or twin per side.

bodykits over liao ... let's talk about brakes .... yeah!!!
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

So you getting 535 brakes ?
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

I got a good deal for a Brembo GT set (6 pot, 365mm) for my 19 in rim but it comes in red and black only.
Any advice from fellow members of how it will look on my car - red or black? Personally prefer blue but there is no stock.
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

if have to choose between red and black .... go for red ... 1000%
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

Red colour any day. Black is easier to maintain but not so nice. I still think you need 380mm Brembo which will fill up gap in 19" rims compared to 365mm.
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

Er, since my rim is 19 in and unlikely I will change, 405 mm is out for sure. 380 mm would be perfect buyt Brembo only has 365mm. I did consider Stop Tech which has the 380 mm that will cover up almost the gap. But then again, Brembo is still premium and the offer is attractive. Heart goes for red but head goes for black. Haiz....

Not an expert but thought Brembo does have 380mm even for 5 series? Actually StopTech not bad but I'm with you that Brembo is considered by many a premium. Well, their prices are certainly premium! Good luck with you decision. Not a bad problem to solve.
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

If I am not mistaken, they have one that is for the F10 550i for the rear brake. I am not sure why they do not recommend this for the standard F10 for the front. Each shop I talked to still "insist" that 365mm is the only suitable size for the front brakes unless my rims is 20 in or bigger and the 405 mm will then be possible.

because brembo only made 365mm or 405mm for f10 front. sibei kwai lan.

stoptech and rotora got 380mm for f10.
stoptech check with j4c snowdog.
rotora check with 2277 calvin.
 
Re: Wrapping my AH5 with M5 Bodykit

Weird, then only choice for you on Brembo route is 365mm for front so rears have to be same size or smaller. 365mm not bad on 19" coz currently I'm on original calipers & 360mm rotors on 19" rims. But, will definitely go for full 380mm BBK front & rears when current rotors need replacing. Ha, any excuse to upgrade to BBK.
