I have only seen it on BMW's web site. I am really interested to see more pictures if anyone has some.

I wiill like a small spoiler too. When I returned my 330Ci back to BMWFS I took the soiler out and try it in my 530i. The spoiler didi not look that bad, th only thing it was too small in lenght. I wonder if the E39 M5 spoiler will fit.. <_<

I think the AC schintzer is a bit too big for my taste and the factory one is fugly

Does anyone have an M5 spoiler laying around there and will like to try pictures please

Is the spoiler you tried just like the one on the E39 M5. Just smaller.


If that is the case then The M5 E39 will probably fit the E60.

I think after market spoilers are ugly. But then again, I think almost all exterior after market parts do. I do not even like after market wheels, personally.

I think the factory OEM E60 spoiler looks great in pics. I have thought about getting one myself. I just wish I could see one in person.

No the one I tried was from my old E46 and was too small. I wonder the same if the E39 M5 spoiler will fit?

555, you got to tell me that you like this factory spoiler? In my opinion it does not go with any of the lines of the car. What I call fugly

Hey Don Juan, don't try to judge that OEM spoiler too quickly, especially not if you haven't seen it IRL. I am not a supported of spoilers either but I got to admit that when I saw the OEM one IRL I really liked it (although I would never buy it).

In case you have only seen that crappy BMW picture (it doesn't do the spoiler any justice IMO), here are a few other shots: OEM Tuned E60

JohanDC, Sorry, I did not mean to trash nor insult your car or your spoiler. I saw the other pictures and still personally don't like it.
That spoiler is a bit too sporty, something that you may find in small sport car. I think the 5 series is a more upscale and refined car. ( The same goes to the rear lights). I guess to each to its own

Don Juan, no offence taken here! I justed wanted to say that I, at first, didn't like that spoiler too! But seeying it IRL change my opinion, that's why I said don't judge it too quickly.

btw, those pictures are not of my car at all. It was just one of the cars that were present on the parking lot at BMW Belgium. My E60 arrives in 4 weeks.
