cf, some are real cf, some are cfrp.
have to ask, but think that with some grinding your one will fit properly
tmix could do that


i just ordered the V style bonnet, he confirmed it is FRP and will do 2 tests:

if it is flammable
if spraying it silver will come out with a good result

if so i will take delivery, if not he can stuff it

Thanks for suggestion. Is there other rear lip spoiler in the market that is made with CF ? I will be interested to know. As for the rear bumper with custom diffuser, nah not at this moment.

You can paint the hood in silver and still looks nice.

Whats your modding plan, SB will be worth to consider
HI Keith, haha, yea, i am happy to be a BMW owner and also sharing all yr pride and joy haah! let z share more then!

my modding plan..that really depends on my cash flow haha, dont want to chip in too much coz still have lots of other things to consider such as.....marriage! but SP is a MUST to plug to my car haha! i think what i need is first fix the airflow( that seems the main problem for hte "chok chok ha", then the SP and ....the light! i want it white!!! others....drive for a while first, only a month time...i will take it SLOWLY>>>>>

Regarding the main chok chok ha problem, tonight AK switch Ricky's airflow to my car and seems that issue disappear..however, still not 100% sure because it is not my usual drive path and u know la, when u are in garage the problem usually didnt pop up ...but when drive home..it will comes out again..so, finger cross this sat, after the new airflow plug in,....if the car still go SMOOTHY!!

Thanks for all the advise here, great chat with Dainel tonight, good guy!

Sort out your problem first and get the SB
As Bill said, the SB worth every penny and its the thing that you cant live without.

I am sure you will mod more after you get married,
from what i can see from our E60 members...such as.....D, B and E (Guess who )
