I'm telling you, CHECK before you pay! 99.999999% of the vendors have no idea there's a difference between Xi and RWD E60. I really hope it's good - I might get them myself, if they fit! Good luck and please keep me posted, if you can.

PS Nice bumper, beyotch!

I agree with this entirely. I still have a bit of brake dust but its soo much easier to clean off.

I just wash the car often, so I don't see any dust
