here is the video of the acutal M5 front bumper fitted, i was tired of the mtech front bumper, looked to ugly and non-aggressive as the M5
mtech sideskirts, and mtech rear bumper with custom dual diffuser , quad exhaust and fender gills installed on factory fenders.
the stock white looks cheap so the whole car was repainted with " white diamond" from the new acura TL plus 5 coats of pearl ( blue tint)
with the carbon fiber emblems and De-badged for the clean look and the rear parking sensor are being painted along with the front
bumper covers and teh spoiler.

How hard was it to fit the M5 bumper? What kind of modifications, if any, was involved?
I read that some have posted that the M5 bumper was 2cm wider than a non-M bumper.
Can you also post pics of your rear diffuser.
Oh and that orange Skyline in the end of the video

what did you do about the side air dams. I have the m5 bumper installed also but in the driver side air dam you can see the windshield wiper fluid. I was thing about just putting black mesh behind both sides.

yes you have to order the 2 m5 brackets on the side that connects to the fender for the bumper.

Did you have to do any modifications for the driver side air duct to fit? I remember someone on the forum saying that the air dam on the driver side did not fit.
