I know it is a matter of personal taste but can you guys give me your thoughts on what if think the e60 look better with or without a trunk finisher?

I like it but do not know if I want to fork out $350 to get one a have it painted. I have a 2008 LCI and I know Eurorev has a solution for the 2008.

At some point, the mods have got to stop! I have already shelled out too much $$ as it is. But it sure is fun!

Thanks

Personally on an LCI it's a waste , I have one and they don't fit perfectly even when modified.If you want one you can have mine just pay for the shipping !! The new trunks almost have the same profile as the Euro style trunk finisher, of course IMHO !!

Cheers

Being that I am in MO, I cannot get the finisher from EuroRev? Is that correct? I saw the post on this forum advertising it. Maybe I misread.
