$2000 dollars? i would look for a nice rim and tire set. shoes really make the car. all the little stuff you can do as you go along. but that's just my thinking. what do i know. i've only had my bimmer for a month.

The 535i turbos are too quiet for me sometimes. This would certainly do the trick!

To the OP...get some new wheels, then whatever's left should go on a kit.

Would 1roll of shadowline at 30 ft long be enough to do your whole car? A roll goes for like $20 bucks right? Do they sell these at local auto stores, or I have to order online?

$2K will get you new wheels and tint. You can also then sell your stock wheels on CL. What color combo is your car?

Yes. You want to measure your your pieces and then cut the 3" vinyl in half to 1.5"... By doing this you will have about twice as much vinyl you will need for your E60, which is good because you may want to re-do some pieces.

If you don't cut the vinyl in half, you will still have just enough (if you measure your pieces accurately) to do your E60.

bmwShadowline.com is the best stuff for the $$$, only $20

Look in the DIY forums (I think.... May be in E60 Mods Parts etc forum...) for a recent DIY for this mod
