My Ride: 2006 550i Silver Grey w/ Sports Package
Default

New to this forum.

Just purchased CPO 2006 550i with Sports Package Silver Grey.

I like the look of M-tech side skirts but not sure If I want to go all the way with the front and rear. Has anyone just installed the side skirts? If so do you have pics?

What do you think of just side skirts?

i think just side skirts would be "OK" I think you should get the M-tech front too and you can leave the rear stock like KnightCom

Skirts only here!....so far.

I bought my skirts from a vendor on this forum, but I don't recommend buying from him. When I bought mine, the whole M-tech kit was $2200. I paid $800 painted and shipped from Florida to California, installed myself. I think the sides make a big difference, but the front is a very dramatic change also.

Go for it.

You wouldn't happen to have a larger format pic of your car?

I think just doing side skirts is OK, but I would do the whole thing

Go for the whole M-kit, otherwise it seems your missing the M-look

I agree 100%, that the sides don't make the M-tech look. I do think the side skirts make the car look better.
