I was at the dealership today and pick up a e60 accessories catalogue and noticed that they had a CF front add on for our cars. It looks pretty good from the catalogue but I was wondering if anyone has tried this and/or know the approx. price of this piece.

when you say "add-on" do you mean a lip like this one:

This is member 07Jet530's car (I think). This one's from Ebay.

I think he probably meant the Mtec carbon fiber splitters.

No I do mean add on like a full lip for the non-mtech bumper. Similar to the acs add on but in Carbon fiber and from bmw, it looks a little more aggressive then the acs one.

I just checked BMWUSA's accessories page, and there is nothing there like what you describe. Maybe it is not offered in the U.S.? Do you have any pictures?

I can't find it on the internet, I'll have to scan the catalogue page and post it when I get a chance.
