Amazing photo shoot! Very interesting article, though I despise that comment about E60 drivers being in their mid-60s, haha!

Thanks! Fancy see you on Instagram!
Agreed. My friend has really stepped up his photography and has landed a couple magazine features!
Thanks. I've thought about it. Normally its the first thing I'd do but I don't mind it there for some reason.

Not bagged! Otherwise I'd be laying frame (or aero in my case). I'm lowered on KW V2 coilovers. All four corners are rolled, pulled and repainted.
I'm running:
20x9 -5 225/35/20
20x10.5 +0 245/35/20

My Ride: 545 modded the F out
Are Prior design's kits fiberglass or polyurethane? Definitely a brave man living in the city and keeping it at that height, especially if it's fiberglass. I'm nowhere as dropped as you and my splitter takes a beating. I haven't come across a non OEM kit that I've taken a liking to just yet, but kudos to you tho for going the road less traveled.

Fiberglass :thumbsdown:
I piss off a lot of drivers behind me, especially when I sloooow down to take a crazy angle to get up a ramp or clear a speed bump. They honk but its not going to make me go any faster!
There are a few non-OE kits that caught my eye. I initially wanted the OE kit... I purchased it for $1700 shipped but then I got a call telling me BMW discontinued it and I'd have to pay almost $1000 more. I said F BMW and the rest is history.
I'd glad I went a different direction though. Some people come around and enjoy the kit... some never will!
