The car looks fantastic Ace! Hey did you recently added the brake ducts? I don't remember seeing them in earlier pics of your car. Are they the RDSport ones and did you run piping for them to cool the brakes or are they for looks?
Thanks Tony...the inlets are just for looks. I wish they were functional for cooling the brakes. Actually they were from Active Autowerks. I believe that they are made for the E39, but since I like how they looked on that car, I decided to try it on an E60. My Rieger kit has ducting to run air to the brakes though.

I've been toying around with adding those inlets as well but wasn't sure. Part of me is worried it may look too busy in the front. Does AA offer them in other finishes like carbon fiber and how much were they?

I think they only make them in one finish. As far as I know, they're only made for the E39. I had to get my bodyshop to put them in for me since they didn't come with any brackets that would work on an E60. I got the inlets for free since we worked with them on a few projects.
