Not long after the facelifted BMW 5-Series
and M5 were unveiled, a plethora of M Performance Parts have been announced for
the premium sedans. The vast majority of the parts are made from lightweight
carbon fiber and kicking things off at the front end is a distinctive splitter
and a decorative front grille in carbon or high-gloss black. M Performance has
then designed carbon fiber mirror caps, side skirts, and can apply an accent
strip in black/silver for the 5-Series or foiling strips for the M5 and M5
Competition.
Found at the rear is high-gloss black
bumper trim, a new diffuser available in either carbon fiber or matte black,
two carbon fiber lip spoiler options, a high-gloss black lip spoiler, a carbon
fuel filler cap, and tailpipe finishers offered in either carbon or chrome.
Elsewhere, M5 and M5 Competition models
can be equipped with M Performance sport brake pads, M Performance sport
suspension, and an M Performance carbon fiber engine cover. Diesel 5-Series
models can also be optioned with an M Performance exhaust.
Four different wheel options are on offer
for regular 5-Series models, ranging from 19-inch M Performance forged wheels
finished in Jet Black to bicolor 20-inch M Performance multi-spoke wheels. M5
and M5 Competition models have a set of exclusive 20-inch M Performance forged
Y-spoke 863 M wheels on offer with a Ferric Grey matte finish.
Rounding out the M Performance Parts are
some unique interior trimmings. These include an M Performance steering wheel
with either carbon/Alcantara or carbon/leather trim for the 5-Series. There are
also M Performance carbon fiber paddles while the M5 and M5 Competition can be
fitted with an exclusive ‘Pro’ steering wheel and carbon on the gear shifter.
Last but not least are M Performance floor mats and M Performance stainless
steel pedals and footrest.
Most of the M Performance Parts will be
available for the 5-Series family right after the car’s market launch.
