it actually might, unless your car is black or have a CF front lip/splitter to match
Thank you, my car is black and I do have a hamann Cf splitter on the front, I will also get the vorstiener Double-sided Cf hood, and cf door pillars to match later on.

M5 rear, this is a direct bolt-on for the m5 rear, It does look alot like the hamann m-tech rear diffuser though
Sorry, I got a little confused because you mentioned it was a bolt on. So it is actually more like a clip-on. I like the idea of CF diffuser look, just concerned about the clip-on idea. Perhaps, you could strengthen it by adding 3M double tape behind it.

I think that it will look OK since you're doing a whole CF theme.

Go with the Hartge man. You won't regret it. With the Hartge the edges will look clean and mean. The CF one thats on ebay looks blah...

Yea I do like the hartge alot, but I hesitated buying it since I thought that it wouldn't fit right with the oval exhaust tips w/o some sort of modification, I just placed the order on the ebay cf diffuser, hopefully it will look good, if not I will order the hartge diffuser

Ey bro,
What's up man, I was just wondering, do you have a site you could recommend to me for getting interior LED lights?
I have looked everywhere and cannot find any for my 08 535i

it looks good on an M-tech but not on a M5 rear, it makes the M5 rear look like a M-tech rear IMO!

Yeah I agree. Makes the M5 rear look mtech. Not that there is anything wrong with that but people get the M5 rear because of it's clean lines and subtle aggressiveness. But do what you like man, it will look great either way
