Congrats on the new car and welcome to the forum! I'm sure you'll hear from many members who have purchased the ACS kit!

welcome. were you looking for the ac schnitzer add on or the splitters for the mtech bumper? the thing with the add on front spoiler is i dont know if it would fit the LCI models because for sure the front is different. but nevertheless, enjoy the forums.

LCI = facelifted e60 aka "new and refreshed". i have that add on that you posted. i dont see why the side skirts wouldnt fit, but the front is for the pre-LCI bumper. for the differences, here's some pictures from the meet we just had this weekend: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?s=&sho...st&p=541907 in post #24 the last 2 pictures are of e60s with the stock pre-LCI front bumpers. then here http://forums.e60.net/index.php?s=&sho...st&p=542491 in post #144 take a look at the 22nd picture. should be a pic of 2 e60s, one being a silverstone M5. the left is member cooltones and the right is member slorider. slorider's e60 is an LCI with the stock front. hope that helps.

if you ask me, id agree with many to suggest the mtech kit. even though a good number of e60s have them out there, it looks great. only real reason i went with the schnitzer was to be different, its a simple design, and got tired of looking at the stock front. plus it was at a price i couldnt refuse (thanks again john and eurorev ) good luck with the mods
