Rear CF diffusor is already on my E61.

CF lower mirror covers for my M5 mirrors will come next, Bimmian CF kidney grills are just waiting to be installed.

And your 535d looks great - basically the same looking car as mine when I bought it in 2008.

What about the front diffuser/spiffler thing. I would like to see a photo of a silver car with that on it. Dont know if its a good idea with high kerbs in Glasgow.

From a post by ArneR in the "before and after" thread:

There is a company in Denmark called Schmeidmann that makes these. Quite a few EU E60/61 owners here have bought this splitter. It is a copy of the Hartge model.

Yes thats the ones, really nice but still unsure. I dont even have the car as yet and im starting to plan load of mods. First one first though, which wheels????

Might start a vote,
1. M6 (167)
2. M5 (166)
3. or the spiders (172 - http://users.skynet.be/zouz/e60_wh.htm )

That front splitter really adds to the M-Sport package. And on your Titan Silver E61, if you can get it with a CF covering, it looks the best - IMHO.

Opinions on wheels will vary here, but you can't go wrong with any of those three. Get all three sets!

As far as the mod bug goes... Welcome to the club. This site will help you spend all of your money!
