It is!
I would have had an opportunity to buy M5 trunk spoiler (painted) and this footrest at collaborate price of 150?, but decided to not to buy the spoiler.
I eventually made the decision about it; I think there would have been too much going on at the rear end of my car .

Exterior mods is a little different than a insignificance of a foot rest
I was just asking a question anyway. To me it doesn't seem like a big deal though, I guess to others it is
