I did put 12mm spacers in the rear only. I have 275/30-19.

I have the stock sports setup with the H&R springs, the handling is better yet without losing the comfort of stock. You cant go wrong.
Thanks all for the wonderful comments. Excited to be at the Socal Meet.

did you do an alignment? if so how much did it cost you? do you have active steering?

I paid $1200 so it looks like Superhung is also getting a deal at $1000 painted and installed.

Everything that i got thru SonicMS was a bit of a package deal considering I also got a great deal from ECF, so I would say if my calculations are correct roughly about a little under $900 part, painted, installed. But remember the Hamann splitter was used from ECF not new.

I did get an alignment, which didnt cost me a dime since the mechanic that did it was my cousin. No I do not have active steering.

It was more like $1.1K to be exact, but I'm told that the prices will be going up soon due to the Euro/Dollar exchange rate.

Your car looks exceptional.

Can you tell me more about the M5 trunk lid finisher? How it mounts? Is it OEM? What the cost is? Thanks.

here are my two toys
future mods? VIP MOD 20' wheels, Vorsteiner or Rieger Lip Spoiler, M5 side mirrors, hold up, I might be MOD happy like VT.

With the mirrors and trunk spoiler coming I would add an acs roof spoiler as well .That would be a complete custom back end.
Looks sweet as is , well done !

Cheers

This is an OEM M5 trunk lid finisher which mounts around your rear license plate frame. This is mount using only 3m double sided tape. It cost roughly about $140.00 plus paint. Hope this helps.
