Could anyone post some pics of an m5 rear bumper on a non M 5er? I'm looking for a from top down shots when the trunk is opened - particularly fitment around the rear tail lights. Not shots directly from the rear facing the car, but from the top looking down at the tail lights to see if the bumper fits neatly around the curves of the tail lights. Thanks.

Nigxdoof, you are the best. 
When I have my rear bumper and exhaust hopefully by the end of this week, you'll notify you first.

There is a problem with the stock exhaust : you have to arrange it with a little mod .

The stock exhaust will rub the inner part of the diffuser a little bit. But since peopl will be changing the exhaust to quad tip (dual muffler), this will not be an issue since its coming off.
What you can do is tell the shop that is putting on the rear bumper to either shave off the tips or move it to the left so the tips don't touch the bumper.
