Instead of getting a new car, I decided to take the opportunity to turn a unfortunate (but very minor) situation into something good. Of course, it caused a few dead presidents, but here is the end result. I probably will not qualify to be called an amateur photgrahper, so this is the best I can do.

Existing Exterior: Radengerie R10 19", OEM M5 rear bumper, twin turbo tube exhaust, quad staggered tips, and OEM spoiler. These were done several years ago.

New Exterior: OEM Mtech front and side, refinished rims. Enjoy!

Lookin good. sweet wheels. Not a fan of that type of spoiler, but with the color of your car it looks pretty good. great mods.

Love the mismatched front and rear bumper (M5 rear, Mtech front)(Mine is Mtech rear, M5tech front), I have a similar setup on mine and it just makes the car stand out more. I get a confused look from people all the time asking if my car is a 550i or a M5 lol. Wheels look clean, but I'm also not that big of a fan of the rear spoiler I personally like the ACS style. But all in all props on your ride looks beautiful!!

You're right. Not many poeople like that spoiler. I wanted to make the rear end look shorter and bulkier. I guess I'm heading toward a GT in the future, but I really do not like the 5er GT. I prefer the Panamera without the "hump."

285/30/19 rear Cont. DWS and 245/35/19 fronts falkens 452 but will be changing for some new shoes probably today or tomorrow. No rubbing no additional wheel well or fender mod.

I was going back and forth about the front end for long time. I figured, well, this is probably the last modding for this car. Up next will be a new car.
