Two questions? Is there a way to retrofit fog light into the OEM M5 Body kit? I want the Quad look in the rear but the M-Tech look in the front with the Fogs. The dealer charges you more for the kit if you break it up. Is there any deaalers still selling the kit for around $1,200.00 to $1,400.00? Thanks.

why not buy the OEM Mtech kit it comes with the fogs and you can buy a quad diffuser to replace the single output diffuser that comes with the kit..I got mine for $1280 shipped, i have had time to do the quad diffuser, u can check out JLmotoring.com

Contact member TouringSpeed on this forum. His cousin works at a BMW dealership and gets around 40% off list prices.

Just go with the M5-Tech front then get all OEM M5 sides and rear then you can call it a day. I've seen it done on the M5 board, but it has been done. Tischer BMW or Newport BMW are the best places to get OEM parts for cheap if you mention the fourm.

I have bought from JL before and have been EXTREMELY disappointed. None of the aero kits fit...!!!!!!! Body shop couldnt do anything to fit it. Waste of my time n money!
