It might help to post were you are from for local fabrication. I plan on getting headers, but for what they are charging I'm going to have some custom made for less out of mild steel and then jet-coated to give the same durbility as stainless. I plan on getting the work done at a local shop here in Colorado.

Wow, mean looking beast you got there! There was an article about a similar widebody Hamann M5 in European Car Magazine a few months back. I think that car only had the Hamann Stage 1 upgrade and was supposed to move to the Stage 2 which I think included headers.
My opinion is that you should stick with Hamann headers to round out the package but there are also headers from Supersprint, Evosport and RDSport (aka Racing Dynamics). I think Dinan is also developing a system as well.
And like Sirch said, please update your location so we can better help you.
Again beautiful car!!

Check out M5board.com. Some members there have experience with the Supersprint and Evosport headers. IIRC, the Evosport will make your car sound very very loud and very very deep.

Wow, freakin mean looking M5! 
You should stay with Hamann headers and performance parts to ensure peak compatibilities.
