Last week, I took my car down to the dealer to adjust the front and rear bumper. The front had a noticeable gap at the drivers side, where the bumper meets the headlight. The rear had the corners sticking out. I wish I took pics.

Long story short, they closed up the gap at the headlight nicely, but I still feel the rear corners could be brought in more. The dealer said that there isn't much room for adjustment and it is what it is.

When I dropped off the car, I took a look at 3 E60 M5's and they all had some gap or corner not perfectly aligned. Maybe I'm a bit picky, but when I fork our $4100 for the kit, I expect perfection.

I'm just surprised by his comments about the lack of adjustment. It would be safe to assume that OEM would fit exactly with no gaps or corners sticking out.
