When you posted the tow hook mod, it caught my eye. I may get it.

Thanks Rocky for all the comments. My car is far from done.
Np buddy! Even though the poll shows that majority of members think it's a no go mod, I think I may grab the tow hook too, in red. If you got a black one that would look awesome! ..and for $50's you can't go wrong!

Really? I think black would be nice for your car. Black and white theme is always the best.

Don't let others tell what you do to your car.

I'm getting RPI Scoops (red) and painting my brake calipers red so I'm thinking a red tow hook will look sweet!

Just got my intake installed. Much thanks to Joe (r1racer) for the aFE intake and installation on my e60. The car is much louder now.

I will not take any pics or vids

PS For those who doubt the intake works, it does! My butt dyno feels a boost between 3000-5000 rpms. PM r1racer for the aFE intake.
Congrats John! It's one of the best mods for the car, IMO. Nothing beats the sound of the intake.

PS -Great pix and the video you posted is awesome, but it's not nearly as good as that video of your exhaust.

I want one!!! I've been looking to get the AFE intake for 535xi, but...i'm broke!

maybe someone here knows someone that wants to buy a "Renntech Carbon Fiber Airbox" for 3.2L M112 (mercedes) motors.
