This is fairly simple, just go to home depot to get the parts. Good luck.

Jill I just got this Bimmer 2006 530 xi in September and have always driven a truck for 30 some years. . How did you train for curbs and like parking at areas and other obstacals like one you just mentioned with the Parking Garage. One certainly has to put in their time to know the difference. Thanks for any pointers. Dan

A garage attendant pulled out of the lot to fast and scratched the bottom of the lip and they wouldn't take responsibility for the damage. So after a few days of searching I found the splitters on ebay for $100 and it saved me from getting the underneath of the acs spoiler repainted. I had a almost the same set up on my 330 when I had it so I figured it would looks just as nice....

You drove a truck for the past 30 years? I'm shocked.

My Ride: 2004 545i TITANIUM GREY II on Black Dakota Lthr, Comfort Seats, Sports PKG, Premium PKG, Active/Dynamic Drive, NAV, Winter Package.
Looks very nice, I love black but I would remove that wing on the back. It doesn't look good on the E60 but I understand this is a personal preference. I like the wheels....

I think I made the right choice after so long Right! 
My local dealer has a 2006 Sapphire for 54k with 39,000 miles. Boy is that a lot of machinery. Did you know that the oil Reservoir has a counter oil pump to draw oil in hard turning situations? The V10 is never starved for lubrication.

This is my fourth Bmw I've owned three 3 series before this and they all were low in the front from my small mods,lol... so I've gotten use to avoiding curbs.. The only heads up I can give go over speed bumps on an angle (wheel at a time) instead of straight on like the garage attendant did to my car. And I never pull all the way up in a spot if they have curbs in front or those little spot dividers... Good luck with your car.. I love mine and plan on keeping mine until I get the itch to get the M5 or 6 series!!!..

I get mixed opinions on the spoiler but I figure since I have the Ac Schnitzer front and roof I might as well get the AC Schnitzer rear trunk spoiler.
