Sorry Chris, but the OEM M5 front - while really cool, fails in 2 categories: 1) Everyone on this forum has either that or the rep one (like I do) & 2) I don't keep my fogs, which is a problem - it gets REALLY foggy here in SoCal when I am on my way to work sometimes. Also, while I love the OEM M5 and M-tech front bumpers, the gap under the center grille just BEGS for a lip - and based on what my wife did to my bumper without a lip, it's time to be a little different.

Good choice on the bumper. You don't see too many Hamann style bumpers. So you'll be unique.

Thanks DK, I agree, and uniqueness is kinda the point of modding IMHO.

Thanks Jason, it's all good, it means I get a new front (and the wife can't complain about me spending money to fix it )

Unfortunately the CF one is no longer available, but if it was I'd have painted most of it. Wouldn't look right to have a big black bumper on the front of my Silver car, if my car were black and I got a CF front I might leave it CF - it matches.

Rieger is nice, but as I said before, Rieger, Kerscher, Prior Design and others are a little too over the top for my tastes.
