I have the mtech body kits on... but i wanna get rid of the fog lights like the m5 ones..is it possible to do so?


i wanna get the rpi exhaust but is it realllllllly loud? becus i dont want it to be too loud. simply becus my 520d sounds bad. if its v loud, is there any decent ones to be recommended? not too expensive tho

i wanna get the m5 style mirrors on my e60 too, whats ur view? get it or not?

OR// is it possible to have a fake pipe? like a exhaust tip?

someone help plx!!

but dont you think the car looks so much sportier after removing those fogs light??

how much would a m5 style mirror cost? i dont need some fancy function. the basics will do ( electrical mirror control at least) ?

use the search button to see pictures and see if you like it or not for the mirrors

also for the RPI exhaust and being loud or not loud there are plenty of threads covered on this topic as well

once again search and welcome

I dunno if you can switch the exhaust on a diesel engine, because of the RPF...

there a vendor here, nvd, who sells replica m5 mirrors. HID fog lights will definitely make ur car look more aggressive. fog lights make the car!! U can remove the bracket and the fogs but keep the bulb in place to prevent error messages.

u can get dummy tips or route piping to the other side to make it real tips.

keep the m-tech front bumper.. it looks best imo.. mirrors are gonna run high.. i think there around a grand if im correct.. rpi is not REAAAAAALLLLLLLLY loud like your thinking.. its hard to tell on a youtube video seriously. it sounds beautiful honestly.

where are you from? maybe you can update that in your profile so we can help you more.. makes things easier for us all
