Japan's Skipper to Introduce New BMW 5-Series M Sport Tune at Tokyo Auto Salon

With less than 24 hours left for the grand opening of the Tokyo Auto Salon 2013, Japanese aftermarket brand Skipper dropped the first photos of its new tuning kit for BMW 5-Series sedans fitted with the factory M Sport package.

The car seen here is a 523i, which is a Japanese market model powered by BMW's 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine with an output of 181hp (184PS).

Skipper…skipped on the details about its package, but the pictures tell part of the story with the BMW adorned with a host of components such as the carbon fiber front lip spoiler, a different rear diffuser and a discreet roof spoiler.

There's also a quad exhaust system and a new set of double spoke forged alloy wheels wrapped around performance tires from Nitto. No word if Skipper made any other performance upgrades to the car's chassis and/or powertrain.
