My Ride: '07 530iSport PackageLuxury Packagemore to come
I plan on using my tax return on my car. I should get back enough to either do the OEM body kit or the TSW Snetterton wheels and tires. I am torn deciding on which way to go. I see that so many people on here have done body kits of some type that it seems routine. I know a lot of folks have done wheels too but there are so many more choices that it allows for more individuality.
Option A: Body kit
Option B: Wheels and tires
Option C: Your ideas
I allowed for Plan C in the poll if you can come up with something else in the $2000 budget range. Plan C can not be Hookers and drugs.
These are the wheels I like:
Thanks for the help guys.

definitely the wheels first. i'd say suspension 2nd but you already have the sport so go with the kit afterwards.

Take the money and put in a high yield account or add to your portfolio leave it there for a couple of years. Then you can buy a astin martin if you wanted and you will be happy you didnt blow it on you E60.

Invest the money. You will need it to pay for the Obama "Fundamentally Transforming America" program (s).

Plan c get a race precision exhaust, scoops and tune and make your car as fast as possible. All go no show 
you can always get a replica mtech kit from trinity (pm Nerweezy for the best pricing) for almost next to nothing. Just my opinion
oh your title states 'poll' but the thread never had poll options. Next time select the 'poll options' before Adding the reply. That way you will have an actual poll and can see the results
