yes it would look sick, as you can see i have doin as such to the last detail,well waiting for an EISENMANN tips for exhaust really
however, the kit will only fit, if you buy M5 fenders together with all the rest theres no problems
are you going to get OEM M5 Wheels or other aftermarket?

don't forget the M5 mirrors, and trunk spoiler and trunk finisher, and the quad exhaust ...
As I said check the DIY section... the fenders are not cheep.

Actually, as far as fitment w/ some adjustment you don't need to have M5 fenders as some member has done it such as member my530i.

the trunk finisher gets rid of that "valley" on your trunk and it gives it the smooth look of an m5, compare an m5 trunk to a normal e60 trunk and youll see it
