Get my RDSport splitters and diffuser and keep your RDSport trunk spoiler. haha
I'm actually also debating on getting rid of my RDSport spoiler and putting back the OEM spoiler or get the Vorsteiner one. The problem is, they glued my spoiler on so tight that it will damage the trunk if removed so I'd have to repaint. Sucks.

Speaking of the stroker motor, did you see the thread on M5Board (Stroker Update Thread) and the deal that Performing Imports (member Thunderbird) is running for the motor and labor??? ~31K installed but only on their Open House weekend, Nov 7th. They'll even install any of the other Dinan anciliary parts for free like the throttle bodies, intake and exhaust. Wish I had the money.
PHI, DO IT!!!

I closed the deal today and signed for this bad boy M5. It sure is a beast! A huge difference up from the 530i. It's kinda sad that my 530i does not get the attention from me that it once did. 
It's been just sitting in my garage all bare with only the M-Tech kit and stocker wheels. That car will always have a place in my heart. 
Anyway, this thing is fully loaded with the exception of not having ipod connection and nightvision. It's Silverstone II on black perforated leather comfort active seats. Black alcantara headliner and brushed aluminum trim. The stock idle sound is very familiar. It sounds like me on the peddle of my modified 530i with the quad exhaust. LOL. Very aggessive!
Anyway, I'm back in business!
Sorry for the cruddy pics. It was taken on the iphone and it was raining.

I think she'll be more upset with you if you DON'T get the 360's!! My wife was pissed when I sold my PC'd 166's but then completely forgave me when she saw the 360's on the car. She loved the 360's, your gal will too. And lets face it, when you have an M5 with 360's, you won't have too much trouble finding a new gal if she gets really upset!
I hate you so much right now!
