Really nice car, but i would prefer a RWD version with a good diff:-) The 535i is US only model, and it would really nice alternative for V8, power is easily boostable with not so costly upgrades:-)

Remember to cut the wheelhoseliners and to cut the shockabsorberfoam correctly to make it fit perfectly then you will be all good.
Just did mine a couple of weeks ago and it was well worth the effort.

What is your cleaning process? I have my headlights out and WOW...now I see 85,000 miles of dirt. I'm getting the mtech/m5 front soon and would like to clean it up as well...
