I am going to be ordering a new 535i in the coming months. I am fine with the stock side skirts and rear bumper but I'd like to swap the front bumper to M5. Has anyone done that? Pics? Any input is appreciated.

Thanks

If you look in my gallery, I had the Mtech front, with stock sides and rear. I then changed my rear to M5 and kept the stock side skirts.

IMO, you should get the m-tech sideskirts. you can leave the rear stock. But def get the m-tech front and sides. The stock rear bumper and the m-tech kinda has a curve to it which matches the m-tech sideskirt

Thanks for the replies!

@nig, looks great!!! ...thanks for the pics. So you still have the stock sides currently?

@imsortof, don't get me wrong I like the m-tech side skirts but my car will be a lease so I want to keep this simple
