So I guess on this one opinions are pretty much 50/50. I know the carbon fiber wud look good with this color car but not very original wud also stand out. I do like the way the car looks as is it Factory. I dunno whether I should even put em on or not? Some of my buddies think that m5 looks great the way it is. Hmmmmm

You doing replica or the real thing? Don't be putting shitty replica's on that car. If I see a replica on your car at the next Meet, I'm ripping it right off -- and I'll know if it's a replica.

ACS splitters Carbon fiber

Trunk spoiler - Color-matched

Carbon fiber or matte black vinyl wrap the roof to tie everything together. Paint optional.
Powder coat the wheels matte black.

Personally, on silver I love the look of carbon fibre. It gives the car a more exotic feel. But you have to follow through with more CF parts - like the kidneys and lower mirror caps, etc. Trust me, CF will look SICK!

+1

I am still not that keen on CF but Matte Black could look sick. Do they make any other deck lid spoilers for the E60's? The spoiler looks like a piece of door molding put on the deck.
