Schabenfolia came to our attention not so long ago as they’ve really monstered the appearance of the 1 Series M Coupe to a hulk-like presence.

Since then, they’ve been really busy, churning out lots and lots of projects of which we’re unfortunately not that interested given that most of them are not BMW products.

This one is however, and it’s quite the lovable model, the one we all know as the F11 BMW 5 Series Touring. Take care as I’m about to say something unusual for me.

I hope this is a diesel powered version of the F11. I mean, the Touring version of the 5 Series is so practical and sensible it’s almost a shame not to have it in 535d guise.

It literally has everything the average user might want. There’s not many cars out there that can satisfy a whole family’s needs and not feel like a dreary box on wheels.

Before this particular model got to the hands of the German wrap specialist, it was fitted with a new body kit that’s reminiscent of the M package.

A similar note is found within the multi-spoke alloy wheels. We can finally talk about the wrap and the redesigned looks.

The German car maker takes great pride in calling the new appearance Cherry Red, which is difficult to get your head round to.

The option to go for a matte finish really throws the color shade off the game. Thankfully, some brushed metallic bits bring out the highlights of the car.

Stunning F10 BMW M5 on Modulare Wheels

Going through Modulare Wheels’ catalog, like any normal person does these days, we find some brilliant examples of cars wearing their products.

The range is quite wide and it’s loaded with all sorts of vehicles trying on these new custom tailored alloy shoes. The one that really caught my eye is an F10 BMW M5.

It did so because it’s riding on some nice wheels but also because of the chosen paint scheme and a few interesting tweaks to be found in the details.

Let’s start with the original temptation of the vehicle, the new alloys. These are 20 inch B18 wheels with a matte black finish.

All that magnificent craftsmanship is beautifully protected from the nasty tarmac by a set of Michelin PS2 tires, as the M5 gets when it leaves the factory.

If the wheels are striking, they’re nothing compared to the candy red paint covering the body of this car. That’s not a BMW color and surely lots of people will hate it but I can’t understand how.

This version of the M5 was clearly customized by an owner with a passion for cars, as well as the Bavarian brand and not some yobbo.

He also chose to get some performance upgrades. We don’t have a complete file on the car but there’s a really nice shot in there.

It includes the Akrapovic exhaust package that has made so many race cars fast and so many road cars sound brilliant. That should more than make up for the silence of the standard car anyway.
