Very nice. That's a Magnaflow exhaust, eh? How does it sound? Got any vid clips? You we love video clips on E60.net.

When I get some time today or tomorrow I am going to drop the front a little bit more. I need to roll the fenders in the back because I get some rubbing on some big compressions. The offset of the new rims plus the 12mm spacers in the rear make it the same offset as having 16mm spacers on the ellipsoid rear rims. The tires are nice and flush with the fenders and it looks great.

I had a slight vibration at around 65mph before and now with the new rims and spacers on the rears (not just the front like before) the ride is so smooth. No more vibrations at any speeds. This could be due to a fresh balancing of the new rims. I can't wait to install the new high flow air filter and RPi scoop

The mufflers are magnaflow street series mufflers. The x-pipe was just a custom made one in the front where the twin resonators were. The resonators were removed and replaced with a straight pipe. The second resonator box is still in and the exhaust is very nice. There is no drone at all and it sounds great. Nice low rumble and really opens up when you mash the pedal. I wish I have a video cam to get some sound clips.
