What have you fitted to your K50 and of those, which do you like and which not?

What are you planning or thinking about but cannot source or maybe not convinced about the value.

Some mods are functional, some look great and some just seems to add no value.

My list:
BMW enduro bashplate +1
BMW LED Spots +1
BMW crashbars +1
BMW headlight guard +1
SW Motech wide footpegs +1
SW Motech brake pump protectors +1
SW Motech brake reservoir guard -0
Touratech frame guards +1
Touratech handguard extensions +1 in winter
Touratech Final Drive cover +1
Touratech Crash Bung +1
Rockfox radiator guards +1
Tooltube/Goosetube +1 (Replaced by Wunderlich frame bags)
Wild@Heart sidestand support (big foot) +1

In terms of extras, my bike is fully specced including cruise control, navigation, top box and panniers.

Wishlist/ToDo list:
Two finger levers - not sure this will actually help, I already ride two finger style with normal levers.
Hella power socket - fused and relayed but direct from battery for running compressor. Have the parts, must do.
Handlebar risers - not 100% convinced I need them yet, I am not that tall.
Adventure screen - I like the 2014 Adventure screen, wonder about the cost though.
Upper crashbars - not sure I need them, not sure they add value apart from offering mounting point for crashbar bags, not convinced I really like the look.

I'm curious to hear from my fellow K50 owners.
