So many choices but nothing is cheap!!!!!

If it were, everyone's car would look the same and none of our cars would be unique.

I'd suggest:
1. Lowering via sports springs (H&R or Eibach?).
2. Stiffening via sway bard (H&R)
3. M-tech body kit
4. M5 side mirrors

Eibach doesn't make springs for the xi. Trust me on that. H&R only for the AWD model. Actually, Hamann does too, but they are essentially H&R's and they want $600 for theirs.

My Ride: 07 BMW 525i Premium Package, Xenon Lighting Package, manual Transmission. Titanium Grey, 20% Tint around the back, 70% V-Kool on front. Planned mods: Style 71 wheels with Toyo Proxy 4 tires, Sachs suspension upgrade, upgraded stereo, and many more to come.

Excellent choice on your rims, I got the exact same rims as yours =)

You have to get it lowered, mine is lowered with 1.2" in front, 1.5" in back, for a non xi model. I have the kit from Sachs (basically upgraded struts and Eibach springs).
But it's really hard to keep the wheels clean though......
