I found e60 M5 Sport mirrors on ebay from I believe an Asia based company for 295.00! The price of course looks good, but is it 3rd party vendor: "Jap crap", (Jk LOL) or are they any good? I know there is Nothing better the BMW OEM for our fine e60's, but I ain't a Donald Trump or a Bill Gates either $$$$, (just kidding LOL), and I cant afford $2000.00+ for a set of BMW OEM M5 mirrors either!
But e60 forum members has anyone here seen these yet? CLICK ON below link and let me know what you think about them!
Do you know anyone that's tried them yet?

Hey there, Those mirrors are actually for the E39. The older M5 style.
They look good, but they aren't the e60 M5 mirrors.

Thanks for the udate!! By the way if you dont mind me asking I see your 530i (it looks very Good!) but how much did you pay for you M5 mirrors? Did you install them or have it done?

Hello nigxdoof,
By the way I noticed your M5 rear bumper with quads, what kind of quads did you end up using anyway? (I am doing mine right now its in the paint and body shop)

You can install them on the E60 and someone on this forum has done it too. But the shape is from the E39 M5 so if you like the shape then go for it.

it sort of looks like hamann mirror for the e60
I dont know them here at the forum, but wish I did, so could ask them how they like them. Now I did email the company that's at ebay, and they answered me and said if it dont work they do give let me return it if it dont work with my e60 for a full refund, but again I just dont know about all the wiring on our e60s how good they will work, they have one feature I like, the auto fold up and down when you turn you car off, and start it. That feature does look cool, but again will it work on our hi tech e60s?

PS,
Are you thinking about ordering a set?

i just ordered this. got nothing to loose, once the mirror come in, ill install it on one side, i want to see if the function works and if the fitment is good. if it doesn't work, ill send it back, and if it works ill get it painted.
