I will be washing it today and have just registered on bmwland.co.uk so will post tonight.
Thanks for the til on the Eibach springs i was looking at getting this done there as my head office is in Covent Garden so I am down that way quite a bit!
Is that where you had your springs fitted, is there anyone you know I can contact there?
I will def get the ac splitters and the springs done at the same time but I don't think the funds will stretch to the M5 mirrors as well.
How come you got spacers?
Thanks

Good stuff dude
Yep had mine done there, speak to Paul (sales manager) and he'll look after you no probs. I travelled from central london (where I live/work (just around the corner from cov garden actually)) and they dropped us off and picked us up from romford station - they're top guys
Springs + ACS Splitters will take the best part of a day to do, so be warned - there is nowt to do in Romford esp. if the weather is shit :thumbsdown: (which is why i went back to london while they were being fitted
)
OEM M5 mirrors are too much still - agreed.
I bought spacers to punch the rears out 10mm, not fitted them at the moment.
Looking forward to seeing the pics

Which chipper have you used Birdos?
Let me know if you want it doing i will PM the details and meet up to help if you want! Its really easy! But they can do the whole lot for ?500 and for what you get it is so worth it.

My Ride: 530d Touring
Model Year: 2007
I like superchips and have had 2 cars done by them, but remember DMS will do it for ?750 if you PM Mike Cooper, and he doesn't charge you for redoing it when BMW over write it, which they tend to do alot. Also it is programmed through the serial port, no ecu out.
Just another option, not saying one if better than the other, just another option.
Your car looks awesome mate. I think I am going to have to get some of those wheels pretty soon now!
