Nice car you got their! I would do remove the m badge.
Will their be any M5 mirrors?

the mirrors hopefully (fingers crossed) theres a guy in the classifieds promising he can get us original bmw m5 mirrors cheap direct from germany, but the price still seems huge...imagine having them robbed off the car! youd go nuts after spending that much!

only considerations are the roof spoiler and the exhaust, as they're not bmw parts.

Then delude yourself a little longer and hope you don't have a claim to make.

You yourself are calling your car an SE.

I believe that your mods have substantially changed the insurance risk.

Or were your mods meant to be "neutral"?

Yep. The same as not liking FCUK across youngsters Tee-shirts & people swearing loudly in the street for no reason. Young kids see it or hear it & ask questions, thats what could offend me.

I agree with those that say lose the silly //M badge. I don't care how much M-stuff you bolt on, a 530d is NOT a M. And lose the childish license plates while you are at it. Other than that it looks great, nice job.
