No way! The M5 fender is 10mm wider.

Super...thank you.
Although I am at least a year away from looking into buying my E60 it is good to know write ups such as this one do exist. Makes the whole job a lot easier, thank you!

Fenders going on my 550 and the issue with the bumper fit up is our big problem. I have it at a BMW shop and they assumed it was not an issue with the m-tec bumper. I will post more detail into what's needed to get this done. Maybe OP thought his solution wasn't the best so that's why he left it out but were struggling now.
