Did anyone install these into there E60? BMW offers them as an accessory. If they were installed, how much did the dealer change and how much time did it take? Also, has anyone placed the M5 Wing on their trunk of their E60? Are there are directions as to where it should line up?

Can't speak for the door sills, but I have the M5 rear lip spoiler. No direction is required. Just double-sided tape and line up the spoiler as best as possible.

I opted for the E60 OEM illuminated door sills instead (ran a few $'s more), as well as the standard OEM E60 rear deck spoiler, when I ordered my baby. No charge, however, for the install, as dealer 'threw' these in as part of the 'deal.' Love both of them of course. Anyway, good luck on your decision here. The "M" version is definitely hot also. BEST REGARDS ALWAYS

Yes, however what do the rear door sills look like and are they hard to install?
