Yesterday i finally installed my front M bumper and the sideskirts.
Rear bumper will probably follow next week.
Pictures of the actual install can be found in the DIY section here
The combination with the 124 rims was on my mind a bit before install, afterwards i'm very happy with it. It definately is a combo not too many cars have.
Another thing i notice is that the original rear bumper doesn't look to bad with the new parts. Of course i will replace it, but it doesn't look completely out of place.

I notice that you did not include the rear bumper - did you only buy the
front bumper and side-skirts.
btw. I actually prefer the non-M rear bumper

Looks good!!
You're right to say the rear bumber does not look out of place.
When I plan to add the ACS front lip and maybe M sideskirts, I will keep the normal rear bumber. It looks fine.
