Wolf, where did you get the Fog Light Bezel Rings? ![Big Grin](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/biggrin.gif)
And yo, guys, I must admit, I feel I was a little too critical in my original response to this thread - it does not look bad with only the M sides.

Thanks for the pics, this looks even better than I thought it would. It seems like the M sides flow with the standard rear. Bit lower but not to the point where it would be disturbing.
Some nice light on those last two fotos, looks gorgeous.

I saw a vendor with them about a year ago on ebay. They were asking too much money (I forget exactly how much). Their photo showed the manufacturer name (a company in Korea). I knew some people who had business in Korea and they picked one up for me...

I like the look of the side skirts w/o the front or rear bumper. I may go this route, as well, someday. IMHO, I don't want my car to look like an M when it's not an M.

Thats another good reason, yeah.
I think I'm gonna go ahead and order those sides. It seems that these are aftermarket:
http://cgi.ebay.de/BMW-E60-E61-M-Paket-M5-Schweller-Seitenschweller-/290423585277?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Autoteile_Zubeh%C3%B6r&hash=item439e9839fd
But it's the only offer I could find on ebay over here. The dealer stated something like 1000 Euro for sides, painting and installation, that's obviously pretty ridiculous.
I hope I can mount them myself, shouldn't be that hard?
