M5, subtle and no need to clean, wax under it. the Alpina B5 is nice if you want a larger profile.

There's actually no gap under that Vorsteiner spoiler. That's the carbon fiber part that they left unpainted.

Get both. Set one right behind the other. That should make the decision that much easier.

I realize you don't like the protruding lip of Hamann or ACS, but since we're on the topic of spoilers, I must say this is my absolute favorite: Arquay.

That spoiler looks nice! It's not that I despise protruding trunk spoilers. I just think it's overdoing/not in sync with a car like 525i. If I had 550i or even M5, I think ACS, Arquay, Hamann trunk spoilers would be among the top choices.

Err... you rich modders have an option.... not me. I am poor. But needless to say, that would make the decision very easy. lol.

why you think its overdo on a 525i. I have a 525i and i got m5 owners turning heads when they see me in my car.

Be proud of what you have!
