My Ride: 2006 530i Black.
Hi Everyone I just pick up a CPO '06 530i in black. I was wondering on a few things.
I'm looking for a Front Lip, Rear Trunk Lid Spoiler and some 19inch wheels in Hyper Black. I would love to get some deepdishes but, I feel as if 19inch with a big lip would look fairly small on a E60. Can anyone point me in a right direction? Any advice will be great! I'm looking to modifying mainly exterior's due to my Warranty. Didn't want to void it.

Most people are going with the full mtech body kit...If you want a nice lip your better off to get 20" rims....Try euro rev or trinity autosport...They'll hook you up with whatever you need....

Welcome. An ACS lip and trunk spoiler always look good and a nice set of VMR v710 or vb3 csl reps or Breyton wheels will look good on your car.
Breyton Wheels
ACS spoiler
19" VMR (also available in gunmetal and hyperblack)

Welcome to the forums.. and as mentioned, if you want a lip go with 20s, if not 19s.. since you live in SoCal, Trinity Auto or EuroRev are your best bets for mods...

My Ride: 2006 530i Black.
This is by far the nicest forum i've been in so far through my years of driving Thanks for all the info. I didn't want to replace any of my bumpers. I'm going with 19's hoping to get bigger profile of tires for a more smoother ride then 20's... What other possible mods is there that won't void my warranty?

Sprint booster, euro stickers, led license plate lights, CF interior, M5 mirrors installed by your dealer, X6 pedals and M5 dead pedal, rpi intake scoops. The only things that might be questionable are the sprint booster and led lights which can be removed in under 5 minutes.

Wow....They didn't void your warranty??? If they wouldn't void my warranty I would jump all over lowering and 20's...but, in the end i'm likely going to result in 19's...
