I think you could have had a nice clean looking car, with some nice mods But the grill and the rear view mirros? Despite what you say you are obviously trying to fool people into thinking you have an M-otherwise there is NO reason you would get M-side view mirrors-like what is wrong with the stock mirrors for gosh sakes.
About the M5 side grill, I wouldn't put them if it was my car. But again, each has its own taste.
Diezelpower: nice mods on the car

My brother in law told me the same.
He wanted me to keep the "new" wheels, but with golden screws instead of chromed, and maybe a chromed centre.

Golden caliper and the drilled rotors is nice though. What brand are those?

I like the side grills. In the end, do what makes you happy.
I like your car Diezelpower, i could care less even if you did want to imperonate an M5, if thats what you like, go for it.

Now THAT is nicely done.
You've added a lot of mods but with taste and, in keeping with the cars' pedigree.
It doesn't look like a soupped -up-boy-racer-bling-machine (nothing against them of course) so congratulations are definitely in order

Sorry if I didn't answer. I posted a M-optics bumper for sale a couple of weeks ago, sold it some days later. Forgot to remove the ad, but it should be removed by now.
