I have heard of carid.com, but i have not heard of the Spec-D company who makes this lip. It looks to be be the AC-S lip a lot of guys have.

Make sure you read reviews I've never heard of Spec-D.

Not a fan of the ACS lip, you're better off saving for an mtech from but its your car.

What is the best price? Guy at body shop said if I brought him the lip he would paint it for free since I have to paint the roof.

I am sure if I rolled up with a bumper there would be a charge.

Anyhow just wondering. Acs lip from a reputable source is 200-250.

My son bought some aftermarket tail lights (not for a BMW) that were made by Spec D. They died within a short period of time, but they replaced them at their own cost (including shipping) and they've been fine. He's quite happy, and the end product was high quality.

Spend the extra 100$ Umnitza/trinity have black friday/cyber mondays sales.

I'm sure he'll give you a deal on painting the bumper too if he offered the lip free...

I wouldn't waste money on that lip, back then when the E60 were still new and not many aftermarket parts were develop yet, then a lip would be an option. Now these days with newer style and choices of bumper to fit on to your E60, why go with that lip? I think it looks horrible and people flock to it because of the name ACS or knock off of ACS. Just my opinion...don't shoot me if you disagree.
