Funny you mention that since I've been searching endlessly for a cool custom badge to slap on. Jay over at Ranz can make anything you want for a custom fit. Just can't find something unique and not tacky that I prefer over the regular badge at the moment.

All good brotha. Thanks tho. Not surprised you don't like the lights tho. I always wondered why you never bit the bullet on Orions, but I know there are still a handful of ppl that prefer the oem look versus the aftermarket rings even tho the V4's look dead on. If it's the lit fins you're not feeling than I can't help you on that one as I really love them. You're right tho, the front bumper really is aggressive which is one of the reasons why I was considering getting the WALD + OEM M5 front end. (probably still will eventually)
Im sure I'm lying when I say this but this is my last set of wheels and I really wanted something subtle and classic. To me, a 10 spoke is perfect and will never go out of style. Thanks for the compliments.

I'm dreaming of WALD as well

Yea, I think I've finally reached the point when I feel comfortable with the exterior. If a Wald front end pops up sometime down the road Im sure I'll pick it up. I still have every intention of purchasing an e60 M5 once I'm ready and if all goes well with my future job opportunities it's looking really good. Aiming for the rare breed of a 2010 low mileage model. I'm sure I'll track one down eventually.
JR, with all the money you spent, you could have gotten an M5 a while ago.

If you haven't seen it already, you guys should look at the replica WALD bumper designed by John Morgan Evans. Not sure if he posted pics of it on his car on this forum but I know it's on M5Board.

I'll be moving towards one of these directions but I'm def. doing perforated leather for sure

just finished my headliner, visors and pillars in black alcantara custom red stitching. EXTREMELY happy with the turnout. If you're Bay Area local and looking to refresh the interior of your E60 you need to check these guys out. I'm going to return shortly to take care of my interior and door panels. Options are limitless so Its so hard to decide.
