Thx Yogibear. When did you go ask T&C? I've ask them about 2 weeks ago and they said they don't have it! I'll go down there again and find out the details, thx.

By the way, do you guys know if the M-Aero kits's installation involved cutting of the original bumpes and skirts? Or is it just add on? or is it just a replacement of the existing stuffs without cutting? The reason I ask this question is because I wonder if I can remove them when I want to sell the car in the future and sell them seperately.

I think is a replacement part, they will replace the whole bumper and you get to keep the old one. Ask gf366 he have got his done but don't know what he did with the old bumper since here in HK we don't have alot of space to store junk like Canada.

Alpineweiss, do you live in the condo right across from Times Square? ? I've seen only 1 white E60 driving by a Chinese in TO and I always saw it around that area. Well, you haven't seen me before maybe because I just got my car last month.?
And I love our choice! Even though I have a little doubt when the car still not arrive but now I love it! Alpine white is really eye catching and nice looking!?

No, actually I live close to first markham place...I guess we're 5 mins away in different directions

I've seen one white/beige 530i, a white/black 530 sport (99% like mine!! ) and a white wagon...

Hey we should have a get together one of these days for GTA E60ers.

BTW has anyone replaced their RF tires under warranty yet? I' wondering if the TSB applies to Canada. My tires (16,000km) (made 14-16th weeks of 04)h are getting noisy.

Yogibear, are you saying that BMW will replace the tires for us if they become "bold head"?

Anyone interest in doing a group buy on the M-Aero Kit? Maybe we can get a good deal from T&C if we have certain quantities!

It's related to abnormal wear on the inside treads of the tires and such wear causes excessive tire noise. So the tires don't have to become "bold head".

The TSB says when the customer complains about tire noise and the tire pressure is correct and the feathering condition is present and the tires have less than 20,000miles , then Dunlop will replace the tires through BMW. That's my understanding but not sure if anyone in Canada has their RF tires replaced under this TSB.

I called BMW Canada and they acknolwedge the existence of the TSB 360205 but did not offer any details.

Yogibear458:
Have you purchased the M-Aero Kit yet? Wanna try to get a discount from T&C if more people will buy together.
