You say that is garbage?
I wouldn't say that! But ok, everybody has an opinion
But you can say that in another way too...
So respect everybodies choice ok?

Sorry to interupt this topic, but i needed to make this clear to loworbit!

PS: very nice looking car nicke60gre. Really great with those wheels!!!
(and yeah, i would also remove those stickers...)
I have to mention that i bought last week the Mtech side skirts and the high BMW OEM rear spoiler.
This week i'll paint them and the next week i will fit them.
If i don't like them, (i don't think so) then i will remove and sell them to a friend who wants them.

oh nooooooooooooooooooo the high ///M rear wing........... nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
side skirts nice and cool but that wing oh noooo Ford Escort style
all those add on wings make me laugh everytime I see them.... people think they will gain more power and make their 10 year old car looks hot and fast.... but on a brand new beautiful car???? it looks cheasy and cheap
it is the smooth and sleak curve that makes a car hot..... there are no add on wings on Astons, Jags, SL's, Bentely's either

( ok ok guys, just my idea..... if he likes it.........his choice of course )

525xi,

I did not mean it to be worded (interpreted) so strongly but I was trying to emphasize how clean it looked without the extra fins, spoilers etc.

IMHO, I find purely cosmetic changes to be a worse investment than bigger rims, better exhaust, suspensions etc. that heighten the driving enjoyment.

Again, I was not slamming anyone's decision to buy aero kits but rather to emphasis my approval of Nick's approach to mods. Sorry to have offended anyone.

My opinion too: i like the ///M sports pack but not the rear wing also

I would install the side skirts but i would drop the wing or sell it to your friend who wants it

Greetz and good luck with your car!
