I have just finished installing the complete Msport kit to my car, what do you think?
Did you do it by yourself? I put mine myself a year ago and the satisfaction after the job was great! Much stronger than letting a dealer or a workshop do it.

Looking good of course!

Thanks, I did it myself just for the cost saving alone. My mate painted the skirts and the rear bumper for me, he has done a really good job i am very pleased with his paintwork.
There is a greater sense of satisfaction doing it yourself, you also save a few hundred pounds in the process.

I need to let the missus calm down before looking at rims or anything else, though she might forgive me for getting a spoiler or a private plate

Great install. Nicely done! 
Now replace the chrome trim with shadowline line and replace the rims with 172s and people will think it's a 550i Sport (absent the badge anyway).
Now you're rollin in style.
