what are you going to do when a 525i challenges you to a race? ... just thought i'll ad my 2 cents.

as far as the look - your car looks great
what are you gonna do when a better driver in a 520 pulls up to you and challenges you to a race

i think it looks nice.. but sorry you have to lose the badge.. its not an M5.. plain and simple.. thats like someone having a 535 and replacing it with 550.. its not right, take it off.. leave it debadged! and you need spacers big time.. 15mm in your rears will make them more flush with the fender otherwise it looks topsy turvy

i dont know im not a fan of making something into something its not.. thats just my 2 cents.
I agree with everything Mel said.

You gotta get ride of the M5 badge.

This is one M5 I might be able to beat.
+1. I couldn't touch Joe's (king1828) at last Sunday's meet and I've got a 550. I can only imagine how badly a 520 would be spanked by a M5.

I guess this is one very cheap M5.
Obviously we are dealing here with a newbie, who doesn't know how 'sacred' an M5 badge is. Give him a break

Without the badge, the car looks very nice.

Well..the masses has spoken.. I have taken the badge of..
But it was nice to see all the faces that I fooled very well especially the Bank Manager.

Considder that a Real OEM M5 here in Norway cost USD 215.000.-
Thats about the double amount of what it cost in the rest of Europe and this because the Norwegian killin Taxes policy.
Thanks to you all for advices...
