Wow! That looks great! It's about time that someone did the M5 front so that it fits into the standard e60 fenders! Nice work!

Next question is..
Since the M5 Replica front fits directly on the Non-M5 car, what type of splitters can be used on this bumper? The M5 front splitters? or the Mtech splitters? Or none??
Please let us know.

Non-M fenders.
I didn't know there was a difference between Mtech sides and M5 sides, does anyone have photos? We're getting Mtech sides - per the shipment list.
One little aside, if you check the link of the images, it's got a ".sized.jpg" at the end of it. If you remove the ".sized" part, you will get a full sized image - large as your computer screen, the fitment is actually better on that image.
