wish i was a balla too. im far from it. its just a lowly 525 not a 535 turbo or 550 like many guys on here have.

i used the money from my acident to pay paritally for the kit which only covered the front bumper really and i paid teh rest out of pocket and extra for paint and labor as well.



edit.. also i dont have a wife or kids so i have a little more disposable income to play around with.

Looks like they painted that rear difuser in white...you might want to check on that

525 or not...M-Tech still looks hot

I was thinking the same thing. I had to convince my wife that I "needed" the e60 for the extra space (we have a 2 yr old). If I lost that argument, I would probably be driving a 335. Not a bad car at all, but no e60.

BTW... did your wife give birth? I would assume that is your child's or child-to-be's ultrasound in your sig.

yes i already talked to them. they painted it white just in case they could not find flat black or a black with flat clear coat. that way i still have a white diffuser not an unpainted one.

its all good either way im happy.
