Get the M-tech kit.

I recommend you go through quad_m: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=25959

Have it shipped directly to your body shop of choice...

A quick update: I installed the M5 side panel bracket supports and it has made a huge difference reducing the gap between the bumper and fender.

I want to thank my530i for help

I'll take updated pics tommorow
