Best looking body kit is the M-Tech Aero kit. It's the cheapest as well.

the rieger rear bumper is an addon to the orignal non M-tech bumper... you have to cut the stockl bumper basically in half and put it together.. however I also believe its the same installation for the Hamann diffusior for the OEM bumper not the Hamann diffusor for the M-tech..and yes my exhaust is a straight pipe not remus

So then Hamann it is for me. Anyone know of any other good body kits for the e60? I was also wondering if the big fender flares would fit on a 545i not just the m5
so as for rear bumpers I don't any are full replacment bumper except the M5 and M-tech.. I am also syure the ACS is an add-on but im not 100% on that one... now you said you were going with the Hamann.. which diffusor are you going with? ass they make one for the OEM rear bumper and one for the M-tech.. you won;t beable to put one on the other..so if you still want your stock bumper you will ahve to go with the OEM bumper Hamann diffusor
Heres the pics to show you the difference:
Hamann Diffusor for OEM Rear Bumper
Hamann Diffusor for M-Tech Rear Bumper

The Hamann is also a add-on as well so I don't see why that changes your opinion to Hamann opposed to the Rieger.. as for the M5 which are you talking about the M5 front or rear bumper? both can be installed however the front needs some moding and it won;t be completly flush with the fenders.. some have gotten it almost near perfect but I think thye sitll ahve a minor gap.. the rear shouldn't have the same problems..
so as for rear bumpers I don't any are full replacment bumper except the M5 and M-tech.. I am also syure the ACS is an add-on but im not 100% on that one... now you said you were going with the Hamann.. which diffusor are you going with? ass they make one for the OEM rear bumper and one for the M-tech.. you won;t beable to put one on the other..so if you still want your stock bumper you will ahve to go with the OEM bumper Hamann diffusor

I agree with Hamann5. The Hamann wide body is a lot of money. Better to just get the M-tech Aero kit and add Hamann parts that complement the aero kit. Check out freed0m's ride. He's got M side skirts, M rear bumper, Hamann front bumper and Hamann quad diffuser.

Those fenders are from the Hamann wide body.. the bump for the hamann wide body is the same look as mine cept its wider and ment to fit those fenders..yes those fenders will fit however I wouldn;t just got those fenders and not do the whole wide body.. jsut so u know the fenders and front bumper alone will prob run you about 10k installed..the Hamann wide body is no joke lol its realllllyyyy expensive.. I don;t think you want to do that route.. I think the setup you stated sounds good but I don't see the need for those fenders.. if you want fenders try the Hamann fenders they make which as M5 grills and they are a bit more flared.. and also I beleive you want my style front bumper? if so theres two versions.. regular and the wide body version.. I'm not sure which will apply to the Hamann M5 fenders but I assume the regualr because the wide body fenders are much larger..
