Nice, you should get some rear spacers next and smoked sidemarkers for the front too.

The tires rub like hell in the back already, I cant have more than 1 or 2 people with me

Side markers are one of the next buys, I have had her for many years now and the current markers are fogged and nasty looking.

yeah the rubbing is fairly embarrassing, but new set of tires will solve that issue (hopefully).

Was going to get the ACS front bump, but I had to replace the ACS back last year with the mtech back after someone hit her while I as parked, that, plus a new PDC sensor sapped the play fund. My area has so many inclines that I rub the bottom of the front bump if I don't creep carefully, so I am just conflicted right now. Additionally, I leaning toward just saving the cash for a true sport ride like an M6 and just keep the E60 as the family car.

I just installed my sidemarkers. Since you live close by a guy by my house rolls fenders and only charges like $60. I had mine rolled recently because I rubbed.

+1 Was that 60 each? I was going to check a local spot here, but if the price is outrageous then I will ask for your contact - would be a good reason to roll out and meet as well.

If you do not purchase the M6 then definitely send me the link!
