HI there... I've just ordered the E60 535D Sport with the 172 style 19's and all the M Accessories i could get my hands on.. And it's at the Garage Waiting for me.... But i want to go all over board on the M5 look!!

I would like to find a link that will show me the part numbers for the M5 Wings, The M5 Rear Bumper, and the M5 Mirrors..

I have a Company Near by that Build Exhast systems to fit any shape or size.. so i'm gunna root 4 pipes out the back, to replicate the M5 Rear End..

In all... the Tractor Sounding Diesel 535 DMS tuned Fiver will Look Exactly Like an M5 except i'm rolling on The 19" 172 style BMW rim, and not the M5 Rims.. But in all honesty, and after seeing both side by side.. i recon the 172 19" rim is my kind of rim... it's Loud Looking, Mad design just suits me down to the ground..

I'll try and post a Pic so you can see what it's looking like now.. Without the M5 Add-ons..

Please Help me out.. and i'm sure if the price isn't too steeeep, we'll have alot of E60 owners in this forum doing some M5 mods..

Thanks Guys.

Awesome car dude! Enjoy it. Don't get carried away and put an M5 badge on the back though. That would be very UNcool. Best of luck.

Its all fun and games until your sitting at a stop light and a real M5 pulls along side of you. That grumbling roar will cut through all the B/S!

I saw a 318i the other day that the owner had stuck an ///M on, and I gotta say it looked really cheesy. Just say NO to fake badging.

It's your car, do what you wish with it. Nobody here as the right to tell you what to do or not to!

On the other hand, be prepared if someone calls you out on it. Personally, I would be embarassed. But then again, most people are not enthusiasts like we are on this board! And wounldn't be able to tell the difference!
