I like it. Did your body shop have to mod the M5 bumper to fit? I noticed the M5 bumper seems to fit better than the M-tech bumper.

I don't get it. Why put M5 side gills on a 545? Just get an M5. It's no better than putting M5 badges on a Toyota Corolla, IMHO. It's like buying a cheap suit and putting a fake Gucci label on it. It's not the real thing.
(I don't mean that the 545 is cheap, it is a great car in its own right).

His Avatar at the bottom state that he has a 545 with mods. To get the M5 side grills you have to install an M5 side fender. The photos are definitely not an M5. You can tell from the rear, which is from the M pack for the 5 series, and not the M5, which has two large chrome dual exhausts on the left and right.

By the way, I wouldn't have as much of a problem with the side grills as long as they do not say M5 on them. I can't tell on the picture.
