To small of a difference than the normal look. In my opinion the M-aero kit from BMW is the best looking. It fits the cars image, not to excesive but not to bland.

Go with M-kit. It's much better and cheaper.

I think the Zenetti kit looks good. Good find. I'm looking for bodykit for mine as well. In my opinion, the M-Kit is nice, but I don't want to make mine an M5-wannabe, cause it doesn't have the power to backup the looks of the car. Other kits such as ACS or Hamann are too expensive and a bit too aggressive for my taste, so Zenetti's kit is probably the one I am going to get.

I think I'll jump in here in defense of the many E50 owners with the M Tech Kit. We're not trying to make our cars M5s. IMO, the kit just happens to look the best and you can't beat OEM fit and quality. Just as Mercedes offers AMG kits on their sport models, it doesn't make those cars AMG cars. Similarly, Audi offers S Line packages for non-S cars. I would say most of us buy these kits because either we feel they're the best looking, best value and/or they are OEM equipment....NOT because we're M5 wannabies. If you like the kit...you shouldn't feel that way either.

If we put M5 badges on our cars...that's a different story.

Had to put in my 2 cents.

Didn't mean to offend you guys on the board here, just putting down what I feel about the kit. If I had offended you guys, I'm very sorry...

No worries...everyone has their own opinions. I guess I was trying to say that if you like the kit, you should get it and not worry that you'll be considered an M5 wannabe.

I like space between the tires and the fenders. Looks nice. But i am not a fan of modding the body of my car. I never mod any of my cars!

I like they way they look without modification.

A very modest upgrade for those that don't want to stray away too far from the OEM look.
It's a good way to give the appearance of a car that's lowered without actually installing lowering springs.

That being said, it's too subtle for my taste.
