Looks MEAN!
Any chance of a before and after pic from the side showing difference in ride height? Hows the ride quality been affected?

Cheers... 
Mambo, I'll do some before and after pics when its fully settled in as it has only dropped around 10-12mm so far
Ride quality has improved if you consider a more 'sporty' ride an improvement (which I do), in that it has less roll and pitch compared to M-Sport spring settings... feels tighter, and it hasn't even fully dropped yet - so am pleased!

My Ride: (E60) 535D M-Sport (DMS)
They look great.
Defo going to get the ACS splitters & roof spoiler.
Can i just ask why you decided to lower further. I thought the M-Sport was already about 20mm lower than a standard E60 & surely going even lower would degregade the ride quality & handling. May go the same route if you really do feel the improvement in ride & handling is worth the couple of hundred quid.
