Thinking about adding the ACS front lip to my black 530 to give it a more aggressive look.
Are there any other add on front lips out there besides Breyton, Alpina, Hartge, Hamann, Zenetti, and ACS?
I like the M sport as well but i don't want to replace the whole bumper.
I would like to hear some of your opinions out there and if you have pics of your front lip, post them.
Thanks,
Paul

Install was expensive, because I had BMW do it. I had to pay the hourly labor rate.
Luckily, they gave me a break. Instead of $120 per hour, they did it for $99. Took longer than expected, but I'm very satisfied. Kit fits great, and I feel comfortable knowing that someone who knows the E60 well worked on it.... rather than some yahoo at "Joe's Collision Center".

I'd go with the m-tech or the ACS. Maybe the hamann if it's ever available.
I wouldn't take it to the dealer though. A "joe's collision center" that works on ferraris and other high end brands is fine with me.
