Ok, this is freaking pissing me off
I was on the way to the so-cal meet today in the morning, on the 60 freeway, this one old ass truck in front of my car with a bunch of junks in it had 2 big pieces of big ripped tires fell out and flew toward me, there were cars on both lanes next to me and I had to roll over those craps and got my front bumper scratched and bent......
AND I couldn't make it to the meet, and that FUXXXXXXXXXXXXXKER just ran away with junks continue falling out from the god damn truck......
Anyways........
I'm looking to replace my front with an OEM M5 bumper, as I heard it's gonna require M5 fenders too
Can anyone give me some tips where's a good place to get it (price-wise), and install it (I guess not all shops know how to do it)....
I'm thinking about EuroRev, since I did my M-tech there, if any of you guys from EuroRev see this thread, please let me know if it's possible to do it there

Neo,
Eurorev should be able to do the M5 conversion. Have you seen Ice's sick a$$ with the quad exhaust and M5 rear bumper? Eurorev did all the work from what Ice told me.
