While still a ways out from being ready, the M5 is already stunning, and not just because of the Yas Marine Blue paint it wears.

First off, since BMW decided to drop the naturally aspired engines and went for turbocharged, smaller units, tuners have had a blast working on Bimmers. The same is the case with this M5, which saw new, bigger turbochargers from AMG, while also sporting AMS downpipes and KW springs.

This is not much, I agree, but as I stated before this is just a base from which they can build various other projects. As for looks, the blue goes well with the black wheels and various carbon fiber trims. IND calls this F10 BMW M5 test mule Blue Deluge, a name that kind of sings. We shall see where they go from here.

This particular E92 BMW M3 was a work of love from the guys of IND, so much so that they even decided to do a bit of inside story for it.

As this was to be the car of a very important client, time was of the essence, so all of IND pitched in to achieve the build in time. The color of choice was BMW’s Atlantis Metallic, and in order to prep the brand new E92 BMW M3, they had to completely strip the body parts off the car.

Since they were already meddling with it, they felt that while the M3’s power is quite good, why not go for more? And so they did, with a supercharger from ESS. KW provided the ClubSport adjustable suspension, and new Brembo brake calipers were installed. With a nice new sound from an Akrapovik titanium exhaust, the car was almost ready.

Once the interior was refinished and all the pieces put back together, the Blue Max project was complete, and a worthy piece for a big car collector.

This is possible in no small part thanks to research and development BMW did with the material, finding new ways to make it more feasible.

The tuning industry has been using carbon fiber for quite a long while now, and they, too, benefit from the new tech. The lightweight was even used by the guys at IND to make door cards for the E92 BMW M3. The tuner combined the carbon fiber with leather, for a better visual effect.

Although the practicality of using light materials is easily understood, there are a few drawbacks to these interior panels. For starters, the door pocket is now gone, leaving you with less storage space. Then there is also the question of money, as IND is asking for 3.995 USD for the carbon fiber panels. And on a final, more personal note, I am not really sure I enjoy the aesthetics of this product.

The F10 BMW M5 fitted with the new soundtrack adopted the system quite nicely, with the modifications doing it justice.

iND Distribution is one of the most famous BMW tuners and they did not stay on plan when it comes to one of the most powerful cars from BMW, namely F10 BMW M5, which is a fortress on the road.

The BMW M5 stock is equipped with a 4.4-liter V8 engine with an output of 560hp and an acceleration of 4.4 seconds to 100km/h. Also, its fuel consumption is very good considering the powerful engine under the hood, the average consumption is 10 liters.

Eisenmann provided the exhaust system, and it uses Eisenmann center pipes, Race 4x102mm tips and AMS Performance catless downpipes.

If it were to go down my street, I would certainly turn my head to see the beast, but you can judge that for yourselves in the next video.

As one of the most popular cars, IND Distribution doesn’t forget about this F10 BMW M5 and modified it surprisingly nice.

The interior is made of full black leather. It also comes with black piano trims.

The exterior of F10 BMW M5 has several additions of IND such as Eisenmann Sport 4x102MM exhaust tips, a set of Eisenmann center pipes, a GruppeM intake, H&R brand new springs, 21″ HRE 940RL wheels and red brake calipers.

Also, the front bumper is modified and side indicators were deleted from it.

IND’s F10 BMW M5 tuning is a total success and it’s very appreciated by the people and not only by fans of BMW.

It all seems a little too well planned however we’re almost sure that under the skin, this was a project that saw many sleepless nights under the pressure of a deadline.

Come the premiere however, I’m sure they had themselves a good drink since they deserved it. It’s all been worth it and everybody who’ll buy one of these will enjoy it every day.

The body kit is developed in collaboration with 3D Design and Challenge Engineering. It not only looks great, it manages to refine the aerodynamics of the M5 and is lighter than the standard setup.

The carbon fiber used in the roof alone saves 50 lbs whereas the new trunk cover sheds another 22 pounds. Extra weight is lost inside by replacing the normal chairs with some Recaro buckets.

The roll cage probably adds back in though. Keeping with the handling focus, the suspension gets KW ClubSport coilovers and the brakes are now coming from CarboTech.

Really, even without talking about the very light alloy wheels or the Falken high-performance tires, the IND F10 BMW M5 sounds like a wonderful car to drive.

Given what it started out in life, and in factoring a new exhaust system from Eisenmann for the S63Tu engine, it’s pretty much impossible to fault this car.

Despite this, IND are telling us they’re about to make a Stage two performance package which will bring out more grunt from the 4.4 liter twin-turbo V8.

User Powerbeast has unveiled his new favorite toy, a seriously modified E90 BMW M3 painted in Dakar Yellow. The modelyear is 2011, the car however is out of this time and world.

iND is probably the most easily recognizable name in this creation. There’s quite a bit of the styling department’s work gone into this car.

That said, there’s a lot to consider when it comes to considering the looks of this car. The US resident got himself a euro-spec front bumper to start with.

Some of the visual tweaks do come from iND but then there’s a Challenge carbon fiber front lip and the rear diffuser comes from 3D Design.

The entire roof panel was replaced by carbon fiber and even the wheels have lost some weight being replaced by BBS FI units wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires.

Inside the E90 BMW M3, some more weight saving tricks have been employed, particularly in the racing seat department. That said, carbon fiber found its way here as well.

One highlight does stand out from underneath the headlines. The 4.0 liter V8 engine gets an ESS VT2-600 supercharger kit.

A Vortech supercharger, all the gubbins needed for it two work, some serious engine work, an Akrapovic exhaust and some serious intercooling work.

The end result is that you get at least 600 horsepower no matter what gas you use. Good think he made everything else better as well as fit that KW Club Sport Suspension and Brembo brake kit.

Picking up some bits of the 3D Design BMW 3 Series makeover, this product is a brilliant collaboration between iND, BBS, M Performance, H&R and Eisenmann.

So far there’s a lot of interesting names included in the equation but even so, the iND F30 BMW 3 Series is still a in a project state.

There’s still work to go into it, mostly on the technical aspect. Meanwhile, the looks have been sorted out quite impressively.

M Performance have spec’d up the money away from you for a set of new brakes, ones which come with a trendy gold finish for the calipers.

After that, iND fit the 3D Design body kit and make sure the paint and all the accessories have some remarkable colors on them.

I wish I could take them apart for focusing on something so superficial but I can’t. So far, the F30 BMW 3 Series seems to look brilliant in their version.

On a performance front, they’ve fitted the BBS wheels with new tires already. At the same time, the iND F30 BMW 3 Series gets a full H&R suspension kit.

Future plans include an Eisenmann exhaust, a great chance at the popular ECU remap option and who knows what other mechanical tweaks.

I’m not complaining about the standard F30 BMW 3 Series but I can’t help but feel that there’s more to come out of this fabulous car.
