I went with the Mtech kit with custon quad rear diffuser. I'm also going CF on the roundels and light smoking the rear tails (both the red and white area). I saw it on an M5 while I was there (this guy drove down from Vegas for the Eurorev re-map!) and had to have it. Very subtle, but definitely noticeable, light smoke tint. It's painted on for those of you wondering.

Thanks for the help today Vincent - and John for his help prior to sale!

Remus custom quad with dual muffler system soon to follow...

I've been on this forum for a year now - really glad I'm finally starting to mod away!

Hey p2style, did you happen to see my titanium grayII e60 while you were at Eurorev? I got some of the same mods to include the tail lights with the mtech kit? Just waiting for the window tint to get done, can't wait to see it!

They do a great job on the Mtech kit. Price is not much different than others but good quality and after service is great. Hey let me know how the tint looks. That's one of my next mods.

Yeah - I think so - was it the one where just the red part of the tails were smoked?
I think you went with a medium smoke, correct?

It looked nice, especially with your body color!

I haven't seen an E60 in this forum with the set-up I'm going with, so hard to describe.

Someone prove me wrong and post pics!

Anyways, It really looked sweet on the M5 I saw - but the owner was new and hasn't joined any forum clubs yet.
Otherwise, we could have had him post pics of his ride.

I guess it looks like just a grey haze is casted over the entire light assembly...like I said in a previous post..very subtle..but very distinctive!
