I've been asked by a aero/body kit manufacturer to determine how many of us new E60 owners would be interested in purchasing a replica Breyton front spoiler, polyeurathane or ABS plastic mold-injected type which is 100% same fit and finish as the real-deal. Please post if you're interested by saying so. Pic attached.

I'm interested, depends on the price though. How about a replica M5 front spoiler?

I'll definately get a Breyton front spoiler, so yes, I am interested!

My car will be delivered somewhere next week and I already asked my dealer for a price quotation for the real deal (Breyton) but I haven't received a quotation yet!

I might be interested in a replica if the price is ok, and the ETA is not too long! My dealer said that he will try to get the Breyton front spoiler delivered and mounted before taking delivery of my E60, so I guess it will most likely depend on good timing.

It looks very good. If the price is as attractive then I'll seriously consider it.

JohanDC...Please tell us what you get quoted for the Breyton front spoiler from the dealer. Thanks.

JWO, I just spoke with my dealer and he said that the front spoiler, painted and mounted would cost 1175 EUR. In my opinion a real rip-off if you ask me. So count me definately in for a replica because there is now way that I am going to pay so much for a piece of plastic!!!

I don't know the exact currency conversion from Euros to US$ but it does sound expensive, but then again Everything is over priced from the Stealers...I hope the replicas are good quality. Actually, I'm more concerned with the fit than the quality.

For 1200 or close to it, you should be able to get an OEM m5 front spoiler or a spoiler from a reputable tuner company.

BTW, what is the stock spoiler/bumper made of?
