What do you think of my custom order?

Hello all. This is my first post in the forum, although I have been reading -and learning- a lot from it during the past few months. I am letting go of my 330ci Performance Package 2005 to get a new BMW 435i M Sport. I plan to place my order later today with the dealer and I'd like to receive your comments on my dream build package:

BMW 435i
Mineral Grey
Leather Dakota Red/Black/Hexagon aluminum
M Sport Package
19" Wheels M Sport Perf 442M Mixed
M Sport Brakes (Blue)
Dynamic Handling Package
Active Cruise Control
Parking Assistant
Driver Assistance Package
Lighting Package
Premium Package
Technology Package
Harman Kardon surround sound
Power Rear Sunshade

Do you think it's overkill?

I have my greatest doubts about the Lighting package. The reason I am considering adding it is because: First, I love the tech (I know I'll have to code enable its full functionality) and; second, in three years time when it's time to sell it I assume all cars will come with LEDs by default and thus my unit will have a higher resale value.

I live in Puerto Rico. High temperatures (Power Rear Sunshade) and fairly bad roads (Dynamic Handling Package). Lots of Traffic jams (Active Cruise Control).

I would rather get DA Plus instead of Lighting.

Otherwise looks good.

I have DA plus, and it isn't really necessary. I'd rather have the upgraded LED headlights if it were an option! Otherwise, your build looks great!

I have the same exact order, minus I didn't go Active Cruise, and I added driver assistance plus.

You should tack on the MPPK and the black grille.

Thank you all for your responses, and in terms of customizing...

Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I got stuck in NYC due to the winter storm.
I placed the order, now I need to hurry up and... wait!

The car is not here yet and I am already thinking about tuning it with the following:

1. Burger Motor Sports JB4 tune
2. Burger's Downpipe
3. Burger's Intake Air Filter (Soon to be available)
4. Burger's Wheel Spacers (10mm up front and 15mm back)
(It's proving a challenge to find lock bolts for the wheels with the spacers...)
5. Burger's Chargepipe with or without methanol kit
6. I'd like to consider a front carbon fiber lip and rear diffuser and trunk spoiler but they proving a challenge to find. The mirror covers and black grill are easier to find.

Is it too tacky to add all this? Should I expect warranty or reliability issues by tuning the car?
